    Brake on a mini cooper

    If the brake pads wear to the point that it cuts the brake pad sensor then those will need to be replaced w/ the pads. The sensors unplug up the wiring harness a short ways. I haven't done the Coopers but BMWs. So if they are the same then it's a no brainer.

    Mercedes 300D parts house?

    I buy either the aftermarket parts from Mercedes or Pelican auto parts. Mercedes sellls the real deal parts or aftermarket which is reasonably cheaper and the quality is good. Pelican has been great w/ Porsche parts for me and have now started carrying Mercedes. I can't say I've bought Mercedes...

    1996 Camry oil leak

    I've changed alot of those out on the Camrys and Lexus es300. It's usually just the front crank seal but I had one come back and bite me. It really was the oil pump o-ring and it was pretty easy. Pump just slides off the end of the crank after the oil pan is pulled to remove the pick up tube. I...

    VW Diesel Questions

    Oops, forgot to respond to your reply. The lines may not leak any fuel. That's what makes em hard to diagnose. The pump pulls fuel from the tank so the lines are in a very minute vacuum so it would pull air through the pores of the hose. Not saying this is your problem but just a guess. If you...

    2000 Jetta-WTF???

    I'm guessing somewhere between $900-$1200 for the head job w/ oem parts. That will get the timing belt replaced while your in there. The condensation in the cap is possibly water from the head gasket but, if you have alot of short drive cycles where the engine crosses the dewpoint temperature...

    VW Diesel Questions

    They don't like air in the system. You probably have a crack in the fuel hose somewhere between the injection system and the tank. The dodge diesel trucks have a known problem w/ the fuel lines when they get old and start leaking air. The fuel system drains down overnight and is a real PITA to...

    Best Diesel truck??

    Runnung 12 seconds w/ My stock long block Cummins. Beat the hell out of and it's still going strong,er,till the turbos blew,but you get the idea. Best bang for the buck Dodge 94-97. Ford powerstrokes 96-97. Stay away from 6.0 Ford diesels. The Duramax didn't have all it's bugs taken care of...

    Mercury Help.

    Ford is notorious for he blend door motors going out so I'm sure thats it. You didn't specify if it was the regular a/c system or automatic climate control. I did a Ford truck last week that was stuck on hot and my neighbors Windstar was stuck on cold last month.
