cbogg: I will say this though, there was a noticeable change to the gauge in the cluster after removing the condensor. Appearances can be deceiving though. It appears as if the temp level lowered about a needles width lower. However, that could also be due to the T-Stat not functioning properly. And no matter what anyone else may say regarding the absence of the condensor, my car will run a hell of a lot cooler at any race track versus any...

2006 vs the 2009 SE?
Published (2009-01-07 23:16:00)
Something that drives me nuts are cars get heaver and heaver KE=Mass X velocity*velocity http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Velocity To much KE to control when trying to pass, turn, stop and go. Yes we are getting safer cars BUT I want a lighter car that I sit more in the center of. Think of it. 95% of the time there is just one person in the car. Why do I want to sit next to the side of the car?? Just because it been done this why for 1000 of...

Heating systems in our cars arent really any different than any other car on the road. Same concepts, same basic components.

Why? I've had my a/c off for quite some time, and I've never had problems with Ice? I assume that you're referring to the defroster.

Regardless of Bryan having an a/c condenser, that shouldn't effect the operating temp of the car that greatly. The t-stat should regulate that. If the coolant is getting too cool, it'll just close and not allow the coolant through the radiator.

Im wondering if the 2005/2006 GLS modelsare better built cars that the current 2007-2009 version? The 2005/2006 definitely has a classier look, to me.

I wanted to follow up on this. I don't have too much fogging. I think if I keep the snow off the bottom outside of the windsheld where the vents are it would help. Still have low flow.

Hey - new here... I have a question regarding 2002 Elantra GLS strut mounts. I did a search, and didn't find much. The car in question has ~80k miles and has developed a clunk over bumps (from pulling into the driveway to expansion joints on the road). I took a look at the mounts, and the rubber is pretty deteriorated, especially the driver's side. My past experience leads me to ...

XD2 with 74000 miles Purchased car in Florida, still has OEM coolant, never changed... It would seem that my car takes FOREVER to warm up, based upon the OEM Temp gauge in the cluster. Having moved up north, now on a more permanent basis, I need to change the mixture for my coolant. Recommendation? What's the mix for northern climates? Also, since the current mixture is based on where...

I'm about to hit 30K on my 06 GLS auto. 1. What could I ask the dealership to make sure I get the best possible transmission flush? I'm not going to do the flush myself, but, I'd like to get the best possible fluid exchange, and I don't want to get ripped off. I certainly don't want a drain and fill with a flush written on the invoice. 2. I did a drain and fill of the antifreeze at ...

My 04 GT has thrown a CEL (P0732 - Gear 2 Incorrect Ratio) when it started the last two times in really cold weather - on Oct 29, and yesterday Dec 23. After driving off, it would be only in 3rd gear (fail safe mode). I stop, restart and drive off and all 4 gears are operational. After 3 full driving cycles, the CEL goes off. My frustration is that during regular driving when the CEL is off,...

i was changing my oil earlier this afternoon, and was undoing my old oil filter, looked up towards the altenator after i took off the oil filter guard thing, and there was a pretty hefty plug that looked like it should have been connected to the altenator and it wasnt, so i reconnected it, i never noticed anything bad other than my lights dimming sometimes (not that much) and my CEL from my non-...

So my 03's mirrors have stopped working. I don't know why, but I want to get them fixed. This seems like something I could tackle, rather than having to take it into a dealership. I know I could look at the fuses, but I have no idea which one is the right one or where else to look.
