    Need new remote

    Well, after thousands of clicks over the past 210K miles, I think my remote (key fob) has finally given out. :sad: And it's been so long since I've used the key that the lock cylinders don't even turn anymore. :angry: I've already pulled out the second remote, but want to replace the...

    Looking for a Nissan part

    Anyone know where (besides the dealer) I can get the Nissan emblem for the grill on a 97 Maxima? The dealer wants nearly $30 and I can only find the trunk emblem on Ebay. Thanks!

    Plug wires

    I need to replace the plug wires. Any recommendations as to which brand? I originally got the Autolite wires from Advance Auto Parts, but am wondering if there are better wires to use this time around. Thanks.

    I finally swapped the drums for disks

    Well, I finally made the time to swap out my rear drums for disks. What a difference! :wub: A big thanks to Cayman for his project. It made me realize/remember just how easy it would be to do this. I didn't follow the project exactly, but it was pretty close. Instead of...

    Climate contro question

    I installed the climate control module from an Eddie Bauer into my '01 Trac a few years ago. Last night I had to disconnect the battery to clean the terminals and the display changed to Celsius. I don't have the instructions on how to change it back to Farenheight handy. Can someone with AETC...

    A/C problem

    Lately my A/C has been acting up so any help would be great. When I let the truck idle with the A/C on for about 10-15 minutes I start to get a "burnt electrical" smell and a couple minutes later it starts blowing hot air. If I'm driving normally, it won't kick out. It first did...

    OT - Need help motivating our pool builder

    Hey guys, I need some help from the legal eagles out there to find out if I have any recourse. We signed the contract on our pool in Oct 2005. The contract says typically 65 days barring shortage of materials or labor. Big loophole, I know. They dug the hole the Monday after Thanksgiving...

    Gear indicator out of position. How to fix?

    I just noticed the other day that my gear indicator is out of position. If I'm in Park it shows Reverse, Reverse shows Neutral, Drive show 2, etc. I haven't had a chance to look into how to fix it yet. Anyone else had this happen and know how to fix it? I'm guessing it is something out of...

    Anti-lock brake question

    I've changed out brake pads, rotors, bearings, etc. in the past, but never on a vehicle with ABS. Last weekend I changed out the bearings, rotors, and pads on the ST. Greased up the brake pins because I had a pad that was hanging which caused me to go down to the metal backing on the pad and...

    Anyone replaced their own fuel pump yet?

    Ford replaced my fuel pump (entire assembly) at 80K miles and the pump is starting to crap out again at 105K. :angry: I'm having the exact same symptoms, anyway, when the fuel pump "gets hot" i.e. driving more than 45 minutes. Has anyone changed out their own fuel pump on the ST...
