    I just bought a Subaru Forester, ** NEW QUESTION in old thread**

    From my experience it can be one of the axles knocking around in the steering knuckle. Usually this happens from the axle nut not being tightened enough. The noise will go away when load is placed on the axle in either drive or reverse.

    Anyone know how to change a headlight in a 2004 Civic?

    I own a 96 civic ex and changing out a headlight bulb requires removing the whole front bumper and taking the headlight housing off the car. This is all due to small metal supports completely blocking the backside of the housing making it impossible to change the bulb while its on the car...

    '02 cavilier AC problems.

    Is the clicking sound the sound of the compressor clutch coming on and off? If so a possible explanation could be a slipping belt. Some compressors have sensors which can sense when the compressor shaft isn't turning as fast as it should and tells the compressor clutch to cycle off to prevent...

    Need a diagnoses on my A/C

    It sounds to me like you have a blend-door problem. If the air blowing out of the ducts is warmer than the outside air, then this points to something that is putting a heat-load on the air your blower is blowing. If your compressor clutch does in fact engage, and stays engaged for a long period...

    GeForce 8800GT Best Prices / In-Stock Listing

    Just got in contact with Dell Customer service regarding the MSI 8800gt video card and they said the order was canceled because they no longer carry it, so I assume everyone else that ordered one when it was around $207 has been canceled as well, unless someone else can verify they are still legit.
