Re: key fob problem

You have to hold the trunk release button down for a second or two, punching it quickly will do nothing. Oh, how I wish that would work! And it did!! What a idiot I have been. I have only owned the car for 5 years... Of course, my excuse, is that I use the button on the car to open so how would I kn...

Re: key fob problem

Ron, Thanks for the info....But that is WAY to much for this boy to tackle. I really appreciate the time you spent trying to help me, but as I said it is too much for me to attempt. The funny thing is I never use the fob to open either the doors or the trunk. I just press the button or either the do...

Re: key fob problem

Thanks for your help. I printed out the schematic suggested by Ronzuki and took the cover off the trunk lid, looked inside and I can't figure out where it resides. I think it would be either item 6 or 7 correct?

key fob problem

I needed to replace the batteries in both key fobs (over two years old) so put in the new batteries and the locking/unlocking/starting work fine, BUT the button to open trunk does not. It used to work a few feet from the car, now I need to have the fob near the trunk and use the button on the trunk ...

Re: How to Polish Off Mild UV Damage from Headlights

A possible solution would be to install 3M paint film on the headlights. This film does have UV protection built it. Now, I really can't verify this as although my car is 5 years old it is always in the garage. If nothing else it would protect the plastic from rock dings.

Re: WTB: Coolant Tank Cap

Now maybe you can find one of those caps. I got no result a year or so ago from the dealer. BUT I did (don't laugh) find out that a certain pill body cap I had worked, and continues to work, just fine.

Re: What is it?

Finally had a chance to pick up my car. They told me that they removed the front suspension cradle and extracted the left front suspension bolt. According to the mechanic by dropping the suspension they were able to actually unscrew the bolt (which they couldn't do with the suspension in place). The...

Re: What is it?

Went to the dealer today and had them check the car out. Yes it was a sub frame bolt. The good news is that they are only $12, so decided to replace all 4 as they have to lower the whole suspension to get the bad one out. So while there might as well replace all of them. The bad news is going to be ...

Re: What is it?

Bootymac, I am getting the impression you think the bolt was replaced when I had it repaired a couple of years ago. I don't see why they would have done that because, basically, it was cosmetic (expensive) damage. Again just the front bumper and the driver side fender. Is that necessary in the type ...

Re: What is it?

Yes, the car was in a accident a couple of years ago (I put a thread in here about being attacked by a couch). Correct me if I am wrong but I really don't understand why the body shop would have messed with it as they replaced just the front bumper and the driver side fender.
