    battery light malfunction?

    I bought the car with 94K miles on it. It now has 118K miles. I haven't changed the belt, but I doubt it's the original. I considered a worn belt as a possible cause, but that should have shown up when the alternator was being tested, I would think. I had a new stereo installed over the...

    battery light malfunction?

    On my way home from work yesterday, my battery light flickered on when I came to a stop light. The rest of the way home, it came on everytime I came to a stop (at idle). Once I brought the RPM's up a tad (started moving), it would go back off. I thought maybe the outside temperature was draining...

    BG Goodrich Traction T/A V tires?

    I haven't tried the BFG Traction T/A's but currently am running ContiExtremes. SHO#7 complained of poor wet traction on his 99 Maxima. Maybe the tire is better suited for certain cars - I absolutely love the performance of the ContiExtremes on my SHO, especially for the way they handle in the...

    Tire Suggestions

    I recently switched to Continental ContiExtremeContact's (215/60/VR16) and am very happy. I got them at www.tirerack.com for $84 ea. They offer very good dry traction and exellent wet traction. They are supposed to be great in snow, from what I've read, but I haven't tested them yet. For...

    Engine cutting out, CHECK ENGINE light, tach stopped working!

    Thanks guys That's exactly what I was hoping - that I could just stick a paper clip somewhere and pull a code. Thanks Ishodu, I'll check the codes after work tomorrow. Hopefully it is just a sensor. Thanks guys, for the quick responses!

    Engine cutting out, CHECK ENGINE light, tach stopped working!

    I'm posting this in hopes that someone has encountered the same problem and could save me some diagnostics headaches. I first noticed a problem about 6 months ago. While driving my SHO, the engine cut out momentarily. The check engine light came on and the car shook violently, as I tried to...

    Aftermarket Wheel Pictures

    I thought that green was the most common color? Anybody know the production numbers? (I'm curious, I have a green '94.) Those wheels do look great, btw.

    UPDATE: Hard Shifting ... Tranny Problem?... I think its dead!

    My car is in the shop for this right now. It was hard to shift in/out of gears (especially 1st) and ground when shifting into reverse. The clutch was obviously not fully disengaging - in my case, the RPM's would drop slightly when in gear (at idle). The Ford dealership told me that my...
