I got it fixed, sorry I didn't respond sooner. A soon as it was working I was on the ground running...
Once I got to the starter (I was troubleshooting back to front) I pulled off the ignition...
A couple things for more information... I'm in Florida right now, not Maine. But it has actually been cold here. The start issue started 5 days ago. First slow cranking on Monday and Tuesday. Then I...
Maybe you have the money to replace perfectly good batteries every year. I don't. The battery has been tested and is fine. And even if I had a bad battery I could jump start the car. The problem is...
I totally thought the battery was the problem It was load tested good and charged. Still no relief. It is only a year old.
Now it's being a PITA being jumped. Doesn't turn fully over. Fast clicks...
Update, the alternator check came back good.
A few days ago I noticed that the starting was weak. But it was still starting. Then yesterday I could start it off jumped, and it ran fine. But after being turned off it would not restart.
Today I...
I just replaced my driveshaft with a rebuilt Colorado Driveshaft. After the core charge it was $400 for a more or less new shaft. The old shaft was rough, but the center bearing was so bad as it was...
My car is silver. The heat gun trick... good info :)
Mine seems to be more of a bluish color than black. I am not sure if it is intentional or wear. I like it though so it isn't a bid deal to me. I could see how it is a big deal if you don't like it....
That I do not know the answer to. I ended up going with an entire Colorado Drive shaft, with the bearing already installed. It was far enough worn to justify doing more than just replacing the...
Well wouldn't you know it... I had to do this research yesterday ;)

Yeah, I had a "thud thud thud" on downshift when I test drove after the transmission went back in. The shaft wasn't in great shape. The center support bearing was totally trashed though. While I...
If you do not know the torque, or it isn't called out in the instructions/manual you have, use a standard torque.

I am an aircraft mechanic/inspector by trade. So all fasteners have a torque value that should be observed. Of course cars are not aircraft, you can't pull an aircraft to the side of the road if...
Update... I found a reman driveshaft with the center bearing installed for $300. A buddy is repairing the support bracket (stripping, welding reinforcements on, and painting) because we could not...
Who can help out with a drawing of the driveshaft components? I found the center carrier bearing assembly, but he is telling me I need the support too. But it looks to me like the support is...
The adaptation may need to be dealt with to get the smoothest shifts. But it has been verified to not be the problem I am asking about...
The hangar and hangar bearing for the aft end of the rear...
I do not have a VIDA. I will say that the transmission service and transmission critical messages are gone.
I am not doing this one myself. The transmission went out while I am on the road for a...
I have the analog gauge and it always seems to be about middle of the scale, without really any variation. I wondered if it functions properly. It didn't occur to me that there was something I could...
So the new transmission is in. It is shifting great and I am happy with the performance in general. I think this one is going to last a while. It now has an ATF cooler and Magnaflow filter. But...
...
Thanks!
Could somebody post a link to the Gibbons flush? I just had a transmission installed (with a Hayden oil cooler and a Magnaflow filter). I am looking to do everything I can to get more miles out of...
The only reason I wouldn't do my own maintenance is location. Unfortunately this latest problem with the transmission happened several hundred miles away from home (and tools, resources, etc). But in...
Yeah, I knew a used key wouldn't work. I am talking about new and uncoded keys. I am also talking about switchblade keys (which I do not have at all).
Does that mean that realistically I am only...
I have only ever had a master key with a separate fob for my 2002 V70XC. I would like to use them as my backup, and have one of the key/fob integrated units. I see them on eBay and the prices vary...
