Coolant - Mitsubishi - Galant :: 2003 - Smelling Something Sweet When Cold Air Is Put On
When I put on the cold air in my 2003 Mitsubishi Galant, after it's on for a while, I start smelling something sweet like syrup. I haven't noticed it when the air's not on and I don't know how long it's been happening because my sister's been using my car since 2008. It seems to be coming from the front, but I'm not really sure. what this is (is it coolant?), is it dangerous, and how much it should be to fix?
View 5 RepliesNissan - Murano - Transmissions :: 2003 - Stalled When Accelerating After A Stop Light Turned Green?
I have a 2003 Nissan Murano with over 100k miles on it that's been serving me well for the past year and I've never had any problems until now. One day when I was accelerating after a stop light turned green the car stalled. I restarted it and it did it again right away. I was visiting my family at the time but managed to drive the 2.5 hours home with no problem and this has only happened once since and it has been awhile since the event. I have since started accelerating slower, but I think a problem is still present. I went to Autozone for a free code reading and received 3 possible codes: P0746, P0430, and P1700. The check engine light came on not long before the first occurrence.
View 4 RepliesSanta Fe (CM - 2007-12) :: Thumping Noise On Uneven Roads
2010 Hyundai Santa Fe.
UPDATE: Ok-yesterday I was driving around RAFB on some uneven roads and I listened very closely as I drove over the minor road imperfections/small bumps. I did hear/feel a thumping noise. When I entered the smoother surface road leading to the exit gate-NO thumping. Bottom line: it doesn't bother me-when driving on bumpy roads I think you're going to hear a bit of suspension noise (IMO). I'd rather hear the thumping noise than a louder clanging/mechanical noise. I have the solaris 21 tires and that could be the thumping noise. Again-no big deal to me.
Mazda - B3000 :: 2001 - Misfire On Startup
I'm having an issue with a misfire whenever I start my truck. It happens regardless of whether the engine is hot or cold, and lasts for about 10 minutes. I had a similar issue not too long ago, except last time it just stopped starting all together until I had the injectors cleaned. I have new plugs, wires, new coil pack, and a semi recently replaced fuel filter. I'm hesitant about it being the injectors stuck open again as its only been about 1000 miles since I had them all cleaned.
View 5 RepliesPassat (B7) :: Popping Noise Coming From Driver Seat
Popping coming from their driver seat? It mostly "pops" when I apply the brakes coming to a full stop or sometimes after I stopped and accelerate, the seat back pops. It's intermittent and I'm afraid the dealership cannot replicate the problem when I take it in.
View 1 RepliesNissan - Sentra :: 1991 - Seat Belt Warning Light / 30 Minutes Of Constant Buzzing
I have a 91 Nissan sentra. The seat belt warning light and buzzer like to go off for no reason. Sometimes this lasts my entire trip, 30 minutes of constant buzzing. I have narrowed it down to the front passenger automatic latch.( it slides across the top of the roof and latches in the back.) I have tried every thing I have heard to try from unplugging the wires under the seat to spraying wd-40 into the latch. Nothing has worked. I am just short of ripping out the dash board to cut the wires to the buzzer.
View 2 RepliesFord - Escapehybrid :: 2008 - Shutting Down While Driving When Raining Or Wet
I have the above mentioned vehicle and have had 5 incidents of the vehicle shutting down on me while I am driving. A warning light (triangle with !) come on, and a message that says "Stop Safely Now", at which point the car shuts down and runs only on electric battery power for a short period of time to allow you to pull over. I have figured out that it only happens when it is either raining outside, or I have just gotten a car wash with undercarriage spray down.
I have had the throttle body replaced as well as the master air flow cleaned out, neither of which have fixed the issue. This is becoming a safety issue, since it has happened twice now on the highway going around 65 mph.
Fiat - 500 :: Periodically Getting String Of Warning Messages?
So a friend of mine recently leased a 2016 Fiat 500x and they're experiencing a problem where about once a week, they'll get a string of like 10 warning messages all in a row on the dashboard. The say something is wrong with the airbag, the power train, the electric parking brake, and too many other things to recall offhand. The thing is, nothing is actually wrong. The car works fine aside from those error messages coming up.
My friend took it into the local fiat dealership to get it looked it and they were able to pull the records of all those warning messages from the computer. They kept the car for 5 days before finally getting it back to her, but a week later she started getting the messages again. They only come up about once a week.
Mercury - Mountaineer :: Rubbing Noise From Rear Left Tire Area
So I have an 06 mercury mountaineer it was making a rubbing noise from the rear left tire area so I replaced the bearing took the merc for a test drive and as soon as I applied pressure to the accelerator the TCS kicked off all power and it left like the brakes on the front left engaged (accompanied by some nasty grinding noises). I have taken it apart replaced the hub assembly and the cv axle, nothing looks to be out of place and everything is clean I cant think of anything else it could be..
View 5 RepliesElectrical-wiring - Kia - Sedona :: 2006 Periodically Won't Start
I have a 2006 Kia Sedona with about 85k on it. About 2 months ago it began not starting (no engine turn over whatsoever). I took it to the dealer and they could not get the problem to repeat. When I pressed the service manager he told me to "bang on the fuse box" while trying to start it. Oddly, that seems to work. Something about the power relay (I might have the terminology wrong here). Last week my (1 year old) battery died. Another Kia dealership also found nothing wrong with the van but also mentioned the power relay as a possible cause of the period non-starting but didn't think that could damage the battery. Car is yet again, not starting sometimes. Banging on the fuse box as per the first service manager still works but this is not a permanent solution. Don't want to spring for a new power relay (??) since they can't definitively diagnose that.
