    Sold!!! But I will be back

    Thanks We all know, as companies down size, they have the mentality that you are lucky to have a job and you will do whatever to keep it. I guess they are right. So, I must drive to many different locations throughout the day which is how I rack up all the miles. (not to mention they deleted...

    Sold!!! But I will be back

    My new ride Well here is my new ride.... Should save me about $400 per month.. She is an 2004 Hyundai Accent, 60k miles, $5700.. I feel that is a fair deal, especially from a BMW dealership, they waived their $600 dealer which is rediculously high, but bimmer owners want perfection and need a...

    Sold!!! But I will be back

    That is a nice one.. I honestly did not have them on my list, the mpg (city) is not as good as I would like, but really not that bad. I could maybe squeeze out another $1k, I am keeping my options open. Gotta just drive around, visit some dealers and see what it out there and on line.. Thanks...

    Sold!!! But I will be back

    Well, I sold her today... $7k. A sad day as she was with me for almost 6 years and I put alot of work into her. The 140 miles a day was costing me too $ in gas and too much wear and tear. My son was most disappointed, but I re-assured him that hopefully a year or 2 will get us another one. Maybe...

    I would agree with both... Maintenance takes up a lot of time...that is for sure

    Steering Rack- Rubber Bushing Broken

    I am not understanding why you would not just change out the bushing, aside from it taking an hour or two more. Why do a "band-aid" repair

    Steering Rack- Rubber Bushing Broken

    It looks like that, it is not. It is a through bushing. I just went to google for jeep liberty parts, I honestly don't remember, but there are only a few that carry the bushing that come up on google. When you read the link, you will see more about it. I wish it were just a top bushing, it would...

    A/c Compressor Bypass

    Have you removed the compressor... If so, all you need to do is follow the diagram in the thread below, get some string and measure the total length needed once you have installed over all the pulleys.. I used a 79.5" belt, but routed it per my picture attached in thread.. Does not matter the...

    That just sucks... Well, hopefully the metal bracket will complete the repair.

    Stealership wants how much?!!!

    New window?? Have not heard that one yet. Why is that? They did not say that as I would also have to re-tint my very dark window as well. I think the dealer would have said something if that were to happen

    Stealership wants how much?!!!

    Yes.. I got that... I mentioned TKO autoparts because they also have a metal braket at $30 Less than Steiger. I can also buy the entire set up, motor and all, just as the dealer would, for $130... So, yes, it could be more than just the bracket, but I can't believe the $$$ the dealership want...

    Stealership wants how much?!!!

    So I want to finally fix my passenger front window (regulator of course) I was near a stealership so I decided to go in. Maybe they would fix for free since so many were affected (02's are not recalled) He told me he could fix for $400.. (I know it is a whole new assemble and motor) but you can...

    Help! A/C compressor has 5 miles to live!!

    The aftermath... Thanks for the diagrams... After a quick evac at the local a/c shop... I removed the compressor, covered up the lines, (duct tape) and installed the smaller belt.. There are a few ways you can route them correctly, in the end I used a 79.5" belt in the route I used. That...
