    Usually people just jump into an existing discussion and start chatting (that's why you'll see various threads covering different subjects in a discussion).

    Please see this post for more details:

    The truck is a 2.7 litre, 2 door, 2 wheel drive, 4 speed automatic, I am very light on my foot with the gas pedal! the truck has 6000 miles on it, the first 5200 miles was fantastic, I was getting 20-21 mpg local and hwy, 28 mpg hwy, The truck is running fine with no strange noises or lack of power, now the truck is getting only 260 miles on a full tank of gas, or, 13 mpg. I mentioned this to my brother (Identical twin) who lives in Northern Virginia, he also recently bought the same truck, he couldn't believe it when I told him my problem! (2) weeks later he's having the same problem! we always got over 400 miles on a full tank of gas! Just curious to know if someone else has had this problem before I bring it in next week to the dealer.

    Hi,
    I have a 98 honda CRV and when I turn the (steering) wheel all the way( left or right) I heard a noise (like BRRR!!) not loud but noticeable.

    it does the sound when I go forward. In reverse( with the steering wheel turn all the way right/left) , no noise.
    Please can someone has any idea of what is going on?

    Thank you for your help
    B.
  • steverstever Guest Posts: 52,454
    Try asking in the Honda CR-V Maintenance and Repair discussion. Sounds like your power steering pump off-hand. They generally don't like being held all the way over. Don't know why you wouldn't here it in reverse though. Maybe someone over in that discussion can enlighten us. ;)
  • robbiegrobbieg Member Posts: 350
    I was wondering where can I find sales figures for a particular model? Are there discussions that specifically discuss which vehicle are moving and which are sitting on the lot?

    i have a 97 jimmy that goes into 4 wheel drive by itself while driving down the road its still in 2 wheel you can hear it whining noise, if you stop completly or shift from 2 to 4 and back it clears up any idea what the cause is. thanks.

    I am flabbergasted that I cannot find anywhere on the web an exterior driver door handle for my 98 Buick Riviera. New, used, or aftermarket, with the latter being most preferable, since the original GM part is made to break. Surely I must not be going to the right websites. Can someone please point me in the right direction? Thank you kindly!

    Sales figures are usually posted in a monthly press release by each manufacturer. We don't have specific discussions on sales figures, but you may want to check PR Newswire, and search on the manufacturer name you're looking for (Toyota, GM, etc.).

    I am trying to find out where it is safest to install an infant safety seat. I know that it must be installed in the back seat of a vehicle, but is it better in the middle of the seat or on the outside?

    Also, is LATCH considered safer than seatbelt installation. I realize that cars and infant seats vary, but there has to be some data out there with answers to these questions. The seat makers don't reference it specifically and I couldn't find it on the NHTSA or on seatcheck.org or any websites similar to those.

    I'm looking into buying a used Subaru (05 Legacy GT wagon Ltd 5-spd) from an out-of-state private seller. WAY out of state; he's in New Hampshire, and I'm in Colorado. I've gotten through the 3rd party vehicle inspection, and already plan to have it shipped rather than fly out/drive back.

    My question is this: how does one go about completing a long-distance auto purchase, when the buyer and seller don't have the ability to meet face-to-face? My main concern is the transfer of money and title, so that neither party feels taken advantage of or worries they've been left twisting in the wind.

    Thanks in advance.
  • steverstever Guest Posts: 52,454
    The BMW 5-Series: Lease Questions discussion would be the place to ask.
  • steverstever Guest Posts: 52,454
    Try the Buying used cars from out of state discussion.

    I got my used Outback from 3,000 miles away, but the seller was a close friend in my case. Check out the Subaru Crew - Meet The Members II discussion too.

    I am not sure which forum to post this on. My son's 1999 Mazda Protege is in very bad shape cosmetically but just put in a new transmission. He has not maintained it very well. Anyway he ahs decided to get a new or used car. Should we trade this car in at the dealership? If so should we mention we have a trade-in or will they jack up the car price if we do?
  • just4jamesjust4james Member Posts: 3
    i guess my question is there anyone in the forum who has changed the power window motors in their Buick LeSabre? mine is a 2000 and was told the cables either came loose or snapped. was advised by mechanic that the dealer would want to change the whole motor. was advised that maybe the cable could be "rigged" to work. anyone with advice, will appreciate. sometimes i love the adventure and love to learn. did hear from wes in this forum, posted again, haven't heard. thanks guys.............J
  • tidestertidester Member Posts: 10,059
    Good question! Generally, you should be able to get more for your used car through a private sale than by trading it in. I recommend discussing it in Questions About Private Sale Transactions and taking a look at Pricing my used vehicle for private sale.

    I just bought a Sidekick Sport 98 and after I drive it for around 20 min start loosing power and I had to wait for about half an hour to cool down and then start doing again. Check engine light is on codes p 0302 and p 0420. I know what the codes mean but I don't think is the catalizer, because the car runs perfect for the first 20 min but then starts doing the same thing, is like iddle goes to bad and you push the gas and goes dead. I want to know if there is any sensor or something that I am missing, Thanks

    Hi.
    I would like to start a different thread on the Tercel page. How do I do it? There is not a "new post" button or the like. Thanks.
  • brittney1brittney1 Member Posts: 3
    I recently purchased my 2006 300C on June 1, We just found out we will be relocating to Colorado from California next month. My husband said we have to sell the 300c and get a AWD. I called the dealership and they said I am already $6k upside down! Besides that, I love the car and would like to keep it. Can anyone please tell me how it drives in winter conditions? Should I keep the car or trade in?
    It is a RWD w/ ESP. Any info will be appreciated...Thanks

    At this time we don't have a specific group for the Tercel. What particular issue or subject do you wish to comment about? If it's a problem with your Tercel, perhaps you can find some help in our Maintenance & Repair Forum.

    If you like, we can get a folder strictly for Tercel owners. Just let us know!
