you probably have a leak on the sealer that's is on top of firewall where the chassie meets the body,my guess.i park with the nose uphill when it rains,and don't go thru the car wash,the computer gets wet,also driving in extreme weather it may leak too,mine does.

well u might of fix the problem but u did not erase the code from the on board computer. do do so you can buy a obd 2 scanner or go to your local garage and get them to erase it.

Our 2007 Sorento bought July 2007, went until now (04/2010) with an after market locking gas cap . It is now showing code 456. Replaced with original gas cap and code went away.

When we bought the vehicle the parts manager said the Kias were sensitive to locking gas caps.

Guess we were lucky to get a couple of years

you didnt specify which American SUV, but most of the newer ones can be flat towed a short distance with the tranny and transfer case in neutral, short distance less than 75 miles, if you need to tow farther you really should disconnect the drive line to the rear end, most of the transfer cases are pump oiled and the pump wont oil just by rolling the vehicle, also beaware that alot of the transfer cases are of the slip yoke style and when you pull the drive line out it my leak fluid,, you can get a plug to put in it., I hope this helps some

You must remove the transmission fluid pan which consists of 17 or 20 screws.Unscrew them in an odd pattern without totally removing them until you've loosened them all.You will then have the fluid begin draining,have a large drain pan to catch the fluid.After fluid slows,finish removing pan which will have remaining fluid come out. Transmission filter will also be accessible at this point making that a quick and very necessary part of the job.Hope that helps.

AFTER you inflate the tires to the correct pressure, turn the ignition to the on position. Then pull the headlight knob from the OFF position to the parking light position three times. This should reset the system. This is the easiest way but you can also reset it through the radio. If you would rather do it this way, it is on 6-44 in your owner's manual

I JUST TOOK MINE OFF YESTERDAY. (MARCH 1, 2008) YOU NEED TO UNSCREW THE PHILLIPS SCREW IN THE MIDDLE OF THE CHROME LATCH. THEN YOU WANT TO POP THE COVER OFF WITH A FLAT HEAD SCREW DRIVER. THEN FINALLY REMOVE THE 10mm SIZE BOLTS WITH A RATCHET. THATS IT.......GOOD LUCK......THIS GAVE MY ARMADA A SLEEK/DIFFERENT LOOK WITHOUT THE ROOF RACK.

On a 2002 mc ls pull the head light switch in and out 3 times and you should hear a dinging sound letting you know you have reset low tire pressure sensor.

with a shoe horn and a prayer

you right ......

only remove 4 bolt you could take out the engine and trany BUT

They come out from the bottom of the car ,that mean you have to lift the car body high as the high of engine ,do you have equipment to do that ?????

Good luck.

I got my out by lift the car body high as I could ,go under and take it apart (trany,intake,etc.. ) then lift the engine block out through the top

after that is easy ,put back the same way

That why it cost $700 or more to fix the head gaskets...

changing the spark plugs is pretty straight forward...I'll assume you're referring to the rear plugs...it is a tight squeeze...lol...A more useful answer is to undo the 2 dogbones holding the engine to the frame just above the radiator.......careful, the car will roll back!....be prepared with a crowbar or other lever hooked under the wishbone over the transmission........careful, don't bend or hit any of the cables in that area....very expensive!.....now lever the car forward and remove the dogbone bolts on the engine .....keep levering the car forward until you can put the removed bolt through the eyelet in the center of the dogbone......this will hold the engine away from the firewall and give you room to change the spark plugs......ps. always use spark plug wire pliers to remove the wires.

I take the alternator off. Then you can get to them

I believe that taking the alternator off is probably easier.I didn't do it that way though, for which I paid dearly. I did it by removing the dogbone bolts because some jerkoff here said to. The only thing he forgot to mention is how much pressure it takes to hold the engine forward, leave the dogbones attached, take off the alternator---you're better off. TRUST ME! It does give you alot more room to remove the dogbone bolts alllowing motor to shift ahead ,just use the second whole on the bracket that is on motor ,bolt up the dogbone to that whole which will hold the motor ahead.

If you turn your radio off, and have the key on access. you should be able to push the volume button and bring up a menu on the factory radio. Check you owner's manuel. Same as with the oil change light.

You don't really need a radio wiring diagram just go to walmart and get a adapter converter kit for about 14.00 : - )

Neither will my tailgate, not sure if it's a fuse or what? Did you ever get yoru tailgate to open?

for myself i just bought my rendez vous and all i have is a remote to open the tailgate,if ever i lose that remote im in deep trouble because there no switch or nothing to open it ;-(

2006 Buick Rendezvous headlight bulb replacement: Purchase the correct replacement headlight bulb(s) first, before disassembling the vehicle. See sources and related links below for replacement bulb information. Then consult your owner's manual for the headlight bulb replacement procedure. As simple as it sounds, the owner's manual is the best place to start for bulb replacement instructions and illustrations. You may want to consider replacing both left and right at the same time in order to keep brightness and color equal (optional).

under the dash, dead center, against fire wall. terible place for a heater core! i've changed alot of them in my time but a heater core in a 2002 buick rendevouz is a pain in the bum.

The front wiper is fuse #29 (25 amp) And the rear wiper fuse is #32 (20 amp)

I went to a lock shop that specialized in keyless entry. They sold me a Fob for $70.00 because i didn't have one & they programmed it.

It will take approximately 8 hours of labor to replace the engine in your be a week. Most mechanic shops charge $75 per hour. This will result in a labor charge of $600.

this is a loaded question , depending on which system you have depends on the wiring its different with each system.

Theres actually 3 fuse box's in an 88 4Runner. one of them is under the driver side dash on the left side and there is one behind the glove box and the last one is under the hood on the passenger side behind the battery

check your tires for broken belt++ out of round

Gently pry out top of the tailgate trim to get access to light harness plug. Disconnect it. Remove two screws holding light assembly. Install new light and connect to harness.

it is located in the glove compartment

Im the one who asked the question
