Hi. This issue is common on Dodge Avengers. A malfunctioning master switch or an open circuit along the lines of your power windows is the culprit. Have a mechanic such as one from YourMechanic correctly diagnose the window issue more...
Your Accord came with a window sticker that explained the miles per gallon the car was rated for under different driving conditions, such as highway driving, city driving, and also provided a combined total. It’s important that you understand these...
You likely have an ignition switch problem, which is common with your vehicle. You could also have a starter relay problem, which could cause the same issue. The only way to verify the problem is to have an in-person inspection....
Without visually seeing the leak it is hard to know if the fuel rail or injectors are the cause of the fuel leak. The fuel injector seal to the fuel rail may be leaking. If you want another mechanic like...
Hi Erick. Thanks for contacting us tonight. The Pathfinder is a rear-wheel drive first vehicle, meaning that in order to propel the vehicle, the rear drive shaft must first be engaged. So, unfortunately, until the rear drive shaft is repaired...

Hi there. Circuit 1 failure means that there is a blown fuse in your fuse box. Look in the fuse box for a blown fuse and replace it. The circuit may relate to the transmission shift module. If you replace...
Does the noise sound like it might be a grinding or maybe a clicking noise? A grinding noise might come from a loose or broken component moving around during turns. Clicking noises might come from a worn axle where the...
Hey Andre. Thanks for contacting us today. The first question I'd ask is whether or not the rear wheels were checked for damage or if the rear axels were inspected as well. I've seen a minor 'glance' off a speed...
If there is no perforation in the sheet metal, due to rust for example, leaks like that you are describing are due to failed seals. Water can travel, so it takes a bit of tracking (back tracking) to find the...
Hi there. It sounds like you have a failed starter. However, without proper testing there is no way to be 100% sure. I suggest having the battery tested first with a digital battery tester that provides current voltage, cold cranking...
Hi - resetting the Air Bag light will require, at a minimum, a scan/reset tool capable of accessing the Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) which monitors the air bag status. If the problem was a temporary disconnect at the air bag...
Hello. P0420 could be due to a variety of faults including even a fuel pump that is not supplying sufficient fuel, causing a lean condition, and hence "fooling" the O2 sensors (pre and post) as to the status (i.e., efficiency)...
That sounds like a frustrating issue for your 2005 Kia Spectra5! I'm wondering how it runs when you're going down the road and not trying to idle at a stop. If it drives okay, but won't idle, then that's a...
Hi there. When it comes to a vehicle getting in an accident and having issues with other components, this is a common problem that cannot be avoided at times. When the vehicle was looked at and quoted, the problem was...
Hello, thank you for writing in. The spark plugs may absolutely be the cause of your misfire. Even if only one cylinder is registering a misfire at this time, you should replace all of them at the same time. The...
Before the advent of modern computer controls, the driver of a vehicle was in direct connection with many of the systems they were controlling. Power accessories (locks, windows, etc) were directly linked to the switches at the driver’s finger tips....
Hi there: In most cases, the issue you're describing is typically caused by ignition coil, distributor rotor, or crankshaft position sensor that is faulty, damaged or has an electrical harness that is pinched or damaged. It could also be fuel...
Hello. I will assume your vehicle is equipped with a manual transmission as it sounds like you are shifting gears yourself. The symptoms you've given are leading me to a malfunction in your clutch assembly, or engine and transmission...
Your vehicle should be serviced on a regular basis and different services are done at different mileages. If you are not sure of what service to do or what is needed, then I suggest you have the vehicle oil and...
As you may know, this is a common sign of a failing CV joint. A CV (Constant Velocity) joint is a shaft that connects the transmission to the wheels, essentially transferring the power from the drive train directly to the...
Hi! How very frustrating to spend money to have your vehicle repaired and then it's still not fixed! Fortunately you have some warranty on those repairs and can return to the BMW dealership and express your dissatisfaction with their inability...
Hi there. It appears you have a serious electrical mess on your hands. In most cases, instead of trying to trace an issue where there are "customized alterations", it may be a better idea to completely rewire the vehicle's ignition...
I really can't tell you that YES it is or NO it is not safe to drive. But I would say that if the steering does not feel right, it would be a safer option to have it towed. ...
Hello. You will need to have the computer scanned and system checked for codes indicating the problem. You may have a bad crankshaft sensor or computer problems with the anti-theft system. If you would like to have this corrected, consider...
