    4wd, snow driving questions

    if you own a 4wd drive vehicle, its always good to use the 4wd a few times a year, that way when you do need it, you know it will be there for you... also, never underestimate the the power of a good set of tires, 4wd means nothing if you dont have a good set of tires to use the 4 wheel traction.

    LEFT BANK LEAN RIGHT BANK LEAN ... what this means: there is an oxygen sensor on both sides of the exhause manifold, hence right bank and left bank, both are reading lean, meaning your oxygen sensors most likely need replaced, lucky for you both came up.. on some cars the code only reads bad...
