comment HomeLink not opening garage door in the mornings
I like the wild guess, but since this vehicle is 2 months old I would be surprised if it is the battery, plus the car is running so there should be plenty of power generated by the alternator.

Is the noise coming from the compressor? Or the tensioner?

comment 2000 Neon Suspension - Monroe Parts Life Expenctancy
Completely agree with Brian. I think another marketed advantage is faster repair time with the full assembly. This is good for the shop but can also be good for the customer if it reduces the labor charges.

Also the GM Epsilon I platform, as my sister's Saab 9-3 has this feature.

comment Check engine light on for O2 sensor (Oxygen) but O2 sensor has been replaced
Is there more than one O2 sensor, have you replaced the correct one? Does the code indicate that the O2 sensor is giving invalid readings or poor readings? It could be another part that is not working correctly and the O2 sensor is detecting it.

I answered your OBDII question, but the last paragraph about the Saturn seems out of place, is this another question?

comment Which provides better engine flushing, traditional flushing oil or adding a flush additive to old oil?
It seems strange that the oil is thick and gloopy if you are frequently topping it off because it is being burnt up.

Can you make your question more specific? It is open-ended at the moment.

comment High / fluctuating oil pressure causes?
The oil pressure should change quite dramatically depending on the load on the engine. This is normal if you are driving under varying loads.

comment What can cause a vehicle to run hot, but not overheat?
@Earlz, in that case it could just be leaking vacuum controls in your air vents or something related.

Possibly, but the check engine code might shed some light.

comment 94' Honda Civic Cooling issues
Just used in the gauge on the dash. So your engine temperature could be fine, but your gauge could be reporting otherwise.

comment Oil leak - just keep refilling?
I agree, and suggest making a habit of checking your oil every time you fill up. (Rather than watching the dollar signs go by).

comment on last sentence: I am frequently surprised how many car parts fit only one make model year. Parts that no one sees till they need to be replaced.

comment How can I choose the safest affordable tire available?
@Patrick, yes, a major brand will have several levels of tires, so just because your tires have a name Brand doesn't really mean anything.
