Prius (2004-09) :: Cannot Open From FOB Or Physical Key After Not Used Awhile

Because of the economy and the fact that we have 2 Toyota Prius 2006 cars, we have taken one off the "on the road" insurance and have it parked. Today I went to go get something I left in the car and noticed that both the FOB and the physical key won't open the car door and I wasn't sure what to do. I can't open the hood to charge the battery if that is needed because the hatch is opened from inside the car. What do I do?

Prius (2010-12) :: Light Clunk Type Sounds Like Something Loose Up Front When Coming To A Complete Stop

I wanted to pass along the results of a brake issue I encountered in my 2010 Prius (15K miles) and report to interested Prius owners how the issue was resolved.

Problem: In the last second (or so) coming to a complete stop I noticed a few light clunk type sounds, like something was loose up front. I never experienced any degradation in the braking performance.

Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: 2wd Truck Sits Just A Tiny Bit Low In The Front

My 2wd truck sits just a tiny bit low in the front. I see a lot of the hockey puck leveling kits on ebay but there are SO many options that I don't know where to turn. I want to up 1 inch and id like to use a nylon or rubber spacer. Will I need shock extensions?

Also do the 4wd trucks use the same front coil springs? I looked under a 4wd truck today and noticed it has a big rubber isolator on top of the spring that my truck does not have.

Here's how it sits with 2 dirt bikes in it. Maybe I'll even go up a squeak in the back too, just to bring it up to 4x4 height.

Prius (2010-12) :: Driver Rear Side Of The Car Sits Lower Than The Other

I looked over at my car and noticed the driver's rear side of the car sits lower than the other. I tried turning the car around to see if it was the driveway. It was not. I parked the car flat and took a tape measure and measured from the ground to the uppermost part of the wheel well and the rear drivers side is 2 foot 2 inches, the rear passenger side is 2 foot 4 inches. So the one side is sitting 2 inches lower than the other. Could it just be sag from the roads/ only having one person in the car, I'm not light either. Have 56k on the car.

Golf IV / Jetta IV :: Noise Coming From Serpentine Belt For Awhile?

A noise has been coming from my Serp belt for awhile. My serpentine belt doesn't have any wear. At least It doesn't look like it. Will this noise go away by replacing it? or is it something else? Is it the tensioner? I've noticed when car warms up the noise goes away. I do not know the last time it was replaced.

Here is a video : [URL] .....

Rodeo :: 99 Honda Passport - Check Engine Light Popped On And Off For Awhile And Now Steady

I have a 99 honda passport, runs like a dream. Let me say it also IDLES perfectly.

I usually get about 300 miles to the tank, but now my miliage has dropped significantly. The check engine popped on and off for awhile and now its on steady. The computer reads the error of "Insufficient EGR Flow". My mileage has dropped down to about 240-250.

I've already put a brand new EGR Valve in it. That's the only code the computer reads.

I know my mechanic cleaned out the valve part itself I don't' know if he did anything other then that.

When he put the new valve on the car ran without the check engine light for a day then came back, and if I am not mistaken my gas mileage was back to normal, but since the check engine light has come back on the mileage has dropped back down again.

5 Series :: 1998 E39 - Knocking Sounds From Front Right Wheel

I have a 1998 E39 535i that has a knocking sound coming from the front right wheel area. The noise can be heard mainly at low speeds and when touching the brake (not only when touching the brake though). It sounds like a load of golf balls rattling around in the bottom of a golf bag.

The car has been to BMW who changed discs and pads to no effect and in the last week I have taken it to an independent mechanic who cannot find anything wrong with the brakes or wheel bearings.

I have been assured that the sound is not dangerous but it is driving me up the wall! I should also mention that it only seems to occur when the vehicle is warm.

Accent LC (2000-05) :: Sounds Like Marbles In The Front Wheel

I have been getting noise that sounds like marbles in the front wheel area. It doesn't happen right away, but after about 20-30 minutes of continuous driving you can hear it. It is louder the faster the car goes, and when you stop it the sound slows down and stops. There is no difference in the way she drives / handles with or without the noise, but I know she hasn't made that noise in the past.

Elantra GD (2013+) :: Scraping Sounds Coming From The Front End

I was on my way to the hardware store today and when entering the parking lot I heard a scraping sounds coming from the front end. I parked and looked under the GT and did not see anything hanging, drove around the parking lot and heard it again. Does not matter straight line or turning, i did notice when I braked I could not hear it. What this could be ? I went out again later to try to pin point it but I am not able to hear it anymore. Just not sure if I should take it in or not.

IS F (2008-2014) :: Clucking Sounds From Front Wheel When Going Between 5 To 15mph

So.. Today coming back from work, I felt clucking sound from front wheel when going from 5-15mph. I even felt that when I had my left foot on the foot rest area. Its appeared during the driving from work to home and check whether if there is any rock or tree branch on tire or wheel but no...

So after 30mins later, went to gym and the the sound was completely gone.. Would it be because of bad wheel bearing or suspension or ball joint issue?
