    Washing my engine.

    Not sure if this should be in tech... After I wash my engine with a degreaser, do I need to relubricate anything? I don't want to wash lubrication away from somewhere that it needs to be. cheers

    Weird sound just started...

    I did a search and found some similar articles but no solution/explanation of this weird noise I'm getting all of a sudden... Every once in a while, I hear this really odd sound coming from my engine, the only way I could explain it is like a low droning or humming sound. It sounds fairly loud...

    Does anyone know what the plenum to intake-manifold bolts should be torqued to? I can't seem to find it... I wanted to check that they were tight and tried applying 10ft-pounds of torque and the head came off! :damnit:

    Another "hissing sound" question...

    I've been slowly trying to work through issues with my car, namely, lopping idle (especially when engine is cold) and sluggish performance. Another thing I've noticed since I bought the car is a "hissing" sound that seems to be coming from the gear shifter. The sound is not there when idling...

    How/when does my car generate OBD2 Codes?
