Re: Heater Core Leak?
Thanks for sharing the wisdom. When you are changing the coolant, the factory manual indicates you need to "open the breather crew in hose to heater core" This step is common to several foreign makes

Re: 28K update on my 99 EVC
Alex, Try to isolate which wheel (brake) the noise is coming from. You should be able to do this moving slowly wityh the windows down. A passenger helps. After you isolate the wheel making the noise,

Re: 99 GLS and Fuel lines
Dave , make sure that they do a market survey and see what similar vehicles are going for in the area. That should be a lot higher than the NADA that most insurance companies use. This should

My thanks to list mates who have provided leads on new EV's. I've contacted a few already and will continue. My 93 GL was removed from life support (officially) the other day and will be totaled out.

Re: 28K update on my 99 EVC
Is the car sitting for several days, before you drive it? If so the light layer of surface rust, will make that kind of noise. It goes away after you use the brakes several times. This is normal. The
