Hi there - this sounds like a major electrical failure! Something serious enough to melt the fuse box, is a serious fire risk as well as a functional problem I would investigate the cause of the electrical short if possible...
The battery light comes on to indicate that the charging voltage is low. It usually means there is a problem in the car's charging system. if the battery is in good condition, the car can still run for a short...
Hello there, many common faults will cause a coolant leak in your 2002 Saturn. Without knowing your exact make and model I can only provider general advice. Coolant leaks can form in almost any part of the system. The most...
It depends on what you want. RX8's are a screaming car that run around and have these rotor engines that blow up, which they still haven't fixed. But Miatas are known as a lady's car. They can last a long...
Your car uses the old Bosch KE injection system. It is a mechanical, electronic combination system that has the unique ability to run (though not very well) with the electronics not working at all, You might find that the section...
Your best indication of the efficiency, and condition, of the cooling system is the engine operating temperature. If the operating temperature is in the "normal" range for your engine, then you need not worry. As far as the generation of...
Hello, There is a common problem with the PCV valve allowing oil to enter into the intake and burn oil on these cars. There is a modified PCV valve that has been made to prevent this from happening. I would...
The information you have provided for your Saturn is limited so it is difficult to point you in the right direction. Sometimes when a vehicle has an intermittent problem, such as noise coming and going from your Saturn, the problem...
It sounds like you may not be shifting the transmission at the appropriate times. The vehicle will not get optimum fuel economy if you are "over revving" the engine. To maximize fuel economy I suggest shifting at low rpm (2500...
The turn signals use fuse number 6 in interior fuse box and have a seperate flasher from the hazards. If the hazards work then the turn signals should work. You should check fuse for power at fuse box and flasher...
Based on the information you gave, there could be several potential causes, including an engine misfire, faulty fuel pump, or a vacuum leak. You didn't mention if your Check Engine Light is on, but I feel it is likely to...
You first should look under vehicle to see if the fuel tank was damaged during the accident? If it was then the damaged may have caused the problem. If the tank and frame around the tank was not damaged then...
Hello. I have a couple of ideas. You mentioned it happens in the morning and this indicates the truck is cold. When the seals in a transmission get old and hard, they allow ATF to leak internally and the transmission...
Hello there, many common faults will cause your 1989 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme to have a hard time starting and die after it starts. You have done great in replacing the crankshaft position sensor, fuel pump, fuel filter, and ignition module...
Coolant leaks can be tricky. I recommend having a certified technician, such as one from YourMechanic, come out to your car's location to run a diagnostic inspection of your antifreeze leak, and suggest the best path to repair.
A strategy is to have a "knowledgeable" assistant with you so that he or she can be outside the vehicle right at the site of the suspected noise when you get in. If that person listens very carefully, he or...
Hey there. This is a common problem when the transmission synchros are going bad. These are small forks in your transmission that help get your car in and out of gear. When these get worn or break, you will experience...
You already have the names of the parts and can purchase them with the names you have so they can be installed. Just remember that the parts will not be covered by our parts warranty.
You should first have the engine checked for any leaks and the PCV system serviced. Then make sure a paper style factory air filter is used. Use the correct oil and then document exactly how much oil is used per...
Your description of the lack of oil tells me your engine is probably already badly damaged. The main problem is you drove it home with the problems you have described. The only way to save a motor from damage when...
The two windows are different. You should have the computer tested to see if the computer stored codes for the poor gas mileage problem so it can be diagnosed. You may have bad O2 sensors.
