Been having an odd and specific electrical problems. On two occasions in the past week and a half I get in and turn the key and nothing. No lights no crank, seems flat dead. After a few times trying it starts and everything is normal but the clock is reset so it lost power somehow. Today I had a...

Got straightened out. Brought it to a transmission shop and they said all was good and charged me nothing. Dr nicks in rocky point seems legit If you ever need a tranny shop.

Is this an easy part to access replace? Sorry I am a noob.

Had the same issue on a 160 mile trip right after timing belt/ wp change. Now it reads at zero all the time but is running very well and oil levels are fine. I think I’m just gonna send it for now.

I figured that was going to be the case so told him to go ahead. Timing belt...

Car is running well. Just want to know any common signs of problems I might meet.

I recently purchased a 2000 lc with 138k miles. service records have gaps and no indication of timing belt done. Brought it to my mechanic and got a good quote for timing belt, water pump, spark plug service all oem parts And a couple other small things. He can’t do the work till next week and...
