So for the past couple of months my R has spent more time parked at the airport than in my garage. I've only driven it a couple of times a week and for no more than 8-10 miles at a time when I've been in it -- the life of a consultant. So I drove it to/from work the Friday before Thanksgiving. Then that Sunday I packed the dog into the Boxster and headed to the mountains of No Cal. Not the ...

Anyone else have one of these (other than T-Mac! http://www.elementownersclub.com/for...dio+control led )? I bought mine four years ago and haven't used it but twice, and when I went to try it out again I found the battery in the car is dead, and can't be re-charged from the base. However, when its on the base charging station, the steering and wheel turning can be activated with the ...

I have a 2004 Santa Fe 2.4 5sp that I recently aquired after the previous owner blew the timing belt. I rebuilt the head and reinstalled. It runs great. I had to charge the battery because it sat for 5 months and was dead. The starter always sounds slower than it should be but it starts after 1/2 second. I put in a new battery because I figured the original was probably dead due to being ...

I did a search but didn't come up with any answers so here goes: I had a minor fender bender a few days ago and my front bumper has a good-sized dent in it. No broken lights or anything, just the dent (ugh). With the holiday approaching I shelved the situation for the time being and didn't think much of it until last night when I turned my headlights on and heard a crunching sound. As it ...

I have a Dell Latitude D620. I recently installed a new hard drive, and with it a new version of XP. At the time, the battery in my laptop was dead (e.g. unplug it and it shuts off in 5 seconds). A few days later I got a brand new battery. However, my computer will not stop giving me the same messages about my battery being about to die. When I start up my computer, I get a message. ...

I don't believe they can lock the phone from their end for an unpaid bill, only if it is stolen. You as the owner of the phone can demand that the PIN be released. You would then have to get the phone itself unlocked of course and then you could use it on another network. Even if I'm wrong on the unlock of the PIN, you can get it unlocked and use it on another carrier, but ...
