If you just had battery replaced due to it going dead then you may have a charging system problem if light is coming on. Have the charging system checked to see if you need an alternator or have another problem....
The ABS wheel sensors are a commonly known part to fail. As you know, these are located at each wheel and help the ABS system detect abnormalities in driving conditions which causes the ABS system to engage. Occasionally, these sensors...
Hi. The most common problem is the instrument cluster followed by the vehicle speed sensor on the transmission/transfer case(2wd/4wd). You will have to use a scan tool to determine if the VSS signal is reaching the instrument cluster. If you...
Hello there, thank you for asking about your 1999 Chrysler Intrepid. The engine oil being overfull will not turn on the Check Engine Light. However, a transmission problem could and that's what your issue sounds like. The first step in...
Hello. From what you describe it would appear that your vehicle is in some sort of limp mode. If the computer detects a serious issue with the engine management or transmission system it will put the vehicle in a power...
A clogged fuel filter can cause stalling issues on a vehicle. The clogged fuel filter makes the fuel pump work harder to deliver fuel to the engine and can overheat the fuel pump. The fuel level sending unit is in...
The lean codes on this engine could mean you have a lean condition that the computer sees as a problem. The computer would need to be scanned to see if the mass air flow sensor is reading correctly. The sensor...
You will need to have the burning smell checked to see if you have oil leaks. The gas gauge not working is most likely the fuel sender in the fuel tank is not working correctly and will need to be...
Hello, thank you for writing in. The vehicle may be having issues with the wiper motors, or the switch. There will need to be some electrical testing done on the vehicle to properly determine which component is responsible for the...
Hello - your car is stalling because the torque converter clutch is locked up and not releasing. It is acting just as a manual clutch would act if you kept your foot on the brake, and let the clutch out...
You probably need a fan belt. Timing belt is inside the timing cover and it has cogs on it and it can't squeal because it's got cogs and it can't slip. If it groans, it means that the timing...
Hey there. The valve tappets are under the camshafts, and in order to replace the bad ones, or ones that need clearance adjustments by replacing lash adjuster, you would need to have camshafts removed. This is a major job to...
Hello - while an exhaust leak can have a minor effect on emissions, I would not expect that to cause a "Fail" - UNLESS your state or metro area does tolerate an exhaust leak for safety reasons (carbon monoxide poisoning...
Hello, thank you for writing in. The testing you have done so far is great. If you know you have fuel pressure and spark then you can turn your attention to other possibilities. These include the air intake sensors like...
Hello - the P0335 problem code you extracted indicates a crank position was not detected. This usually means the crankshaft position sensor has failed, which will cause the sudden stall you experienced, but can also mean the electrical system voltage...
The most common for the clutch to be hard to push and is real noisey is going to be a broken clutch pressure plate. You will need to replace the clutch assembly to fix the problem.
Hello. The stopper assembly is an essential, required part (the "stopper" is not a cosmetic cover). If the vibration started after you installed the aftermarket mount, the cause of the vibration is the aftermarket mount and you should remove it....
Hello. I would have the engine oil pressure checked immediately. Having the correct oil level isn't enough if the engine is unable to maintain sufficient oil pressure. It's possible the coolant level and oil pressure sensors are faulty, hence the...
Hi, thanks for writing in. In nearly 40 years of working on cars, and 30 years of anti-lock brake systems, I've never seen or heard of a single vehicle needing a "whole new ABS system" at one time, unless it...
