My 4x4 hasn't worked for about 50K miles and I never need it. We have a bit of snow right now, so I tried it today. The light goes on, and there's a ticking sound that follows the speed of the vehicle, almost like the baseball cards you used to put it the forks of a bicycle but must softer. I...

I changed mine somewhere around 135K. I did it myself and it was so freaking hard you wouldn't believe it. The bolts were like fused with the nuts as if they were one piece. I had to lift myself up with the rear bumper while hanging under the truck, and put my foot on the end of the ratchet...

I have a '92 XLT with 142K. I bought it at 72K, before which nothing was done. I'm on my third set of tires, had the trans rebuilt at 120K. I just had the ball joints replaced, repaired the door handle pulls, and had to install a new driver's seat that actually broke at around 80K. New...

I'm no mechanic. In fact, I'm worse, I've owned british cars! But, if your lights dim at a stop something is wrong, that should never happen. Combined with power steering problems, maybe your belts are loose? Just a thought. Your dealer should have spotted it if that was the deal, but...

The Escape is OK, its just a different kind of "SUV". I would take one over a Freelander, anyway. It isn't all that well designed ergonomecially, though, and little things might bug you. A friend's parents bought one and its an auto "on the tree". The shift lever sits right in front of the...

Same thing happenned to me. One day I was driving and there was suddenly no window control. I was so irritated about it because the XLT ('92) is my standby ride. I parked it at home, took off the door "sill" or whatever lines the inside of the driver's side door, and just jiggled...

I have a '92 XLT. The A/C compressor went out long ago and then the blower motor went out. I'm shopping for used parts. I need to know some things. My compressor sits at front left when looking at the motor from the front. Is this a hang-on or intgral A/C?. It requires the "serpentine"...

So, what's the deal? I've had my '92 XLT since '97. I didn't think much of it when I bought it, I bought it from the dealer that leased it to my dad, I figured I'm better off if I know the history. Anyway, I let it lie after going back to school and not needing a high milegae car. Plus...

I used to be on this board as "Orkrist" a few years ago, but have changed email addresses and so on so I just re-registered. Anyway, I need some help. After struggling over trading in the '92 and getting nothing in exchange for a car note I don't want for something silly, like a WRX STI, I...
