Spent lots of days driving my bus through ice coldness and snowstorms, yeah if my heater wouldn't have worked.... But all that heater does anyways is keep your feet from falling off and the front cabin warm enought that you don't freeze to death. The warm air outlet sucks on the driver's side and is...

front wheel bearing suggestion??

I'm gonna replace my front axle and need a new bearing too. I would like to do it all at once, so do you have a bearing suggestion. As in manufacturer, I can get one from a local place for $35, the dealer one costs $100, internet $50. I had the names all written down, lost the piece of paper though....

my one key works for doors and ignition, but only on the driver's door, I think the passenger and hatch locks are not worn enough for the key or just stuck somehow, does someone have the same experience? My key is really worn, almost like a flat screwdriver. I tried getting a key cut to the vin, but...

I shift usually around 3000 to 3500, previously shifted before 3000, then I took a road trip and did some shifting around 4000. Seems to be pulling a lot better at higher revs, doesn't seem to like the 2000k shifts, May be different with Turbos, i dunno... I don't want to take it higher than 3500 on...

I failed at idle too, Hydrocarbons though.. I was referred to this test only station by a mechanic friend who knew this test guy. He kept the idle at 1050 for the test and I passed easily.
