NISSAN 200SX 4SALE
87 Model stick shift
The car has a dent at the back as a result of it rolling down the
driveway and hit a tree. Other than that it is in a drivable condition.
Any reasonable offer accepted. The car is in Pittsburgh, PA. You drive.

I am considering buying a Toyota Xtracab 2 wheel drive pickup.
I found a ’91 at a local dealer. It has a 4 cylinder engine
with automatic transmission and 60K miles.
Anyone with experience and/or knowledge of this truck please
let me know what you think: how’s the automatic? (I would have
prefered a 5 speed), will the truck hold up? how much is it
worth?
Thanks for the advice!
If you’re really having a problem, try calling CC direct at 800-992-1997.
I have an ’84 BMW 528i and I am having a couple of problems with it.
Hopefully someone can help.
I am experiencing a steering wobble between 50 and 60 mph as if my
wheels were not balanced. I have had the balancing done, new tyres on
the front and alignment checked (there was no adjustment necessary).
Having done all of this, I guessed there was excessive play in the
front suspension parts somewhere. I got the car into the garage and
they checked everything and found no problems anywhere in that
department. They also checked my brake discs (rotors?) and found them
to be fine also. They suggested that it could possibly be worn shock
absorber struts (the car has done 90k miles, 23k in the last 14
months). Could shocks be the problem? Sounds plausible that there
could be a shimmy there as the problem is exaggerated on bumpy roads.
The second problem I think is ABS related. Often when the car is first
started (not always from cold) I get a grating sound from the front
end when I brake. Also the pedal fights until pumped. It only happens
the first two or three times I brake and then all is well. I know when
it is going to happen because I hear a slight whirring noise coming
from the front of the car (like an electric motor). In the couple of
times I have had to brake in a hurry recently the wheels have locked
up so I guess that ABS is not working. I have never had a car with ABS
before that works so I don’t know how it should feel on braking.
If anyone has any ideas, please post or email
Thanks

Disclaimer: Novell knows nothing of my opinions
with all the talk on timing belts and about regularly replacing them at
60k miles and potential engine damage if the engine is not a
non-interferance engine, i have to wonder…why don’t more car makers
just use a timing *chain*. especially on an engine that might be
severely damaged it would make sense. i realize they are probably
noisier, perhaps slightly more expensive…but certainly not if you
consider the cost of replacing the rubber belts and potential engine
damage.
is their an faq on this? does anyone have any real reasons…???

I’ve got a ’91 Berretta since new and, on occasion, have had a terrible
hesitaion problem. Of course, when I bring it to my dealer, it is either
not there or not bad enough to have them admit to the problem. I have
heard through the grape vine and in those "lemon" car books that the
problem is widespread. Does anyone know of a solution or if a recall
exists? It really gets embarrassing when you’re driving a standard and it
looks like you’re always popping the clutch when the car won’t take the
gas.

Hi,
I’m thinking of buying an ’85 Dodge Omni GLH Turbo with 65000 miles on it
and would appreciate any comments, perspectives, warnings, things to look
for etc. related to this car. I’m pretty wary of tubocharged engines
(especially on a used car) as the turbo is a big ticket item to replce so
any info on Dodge turbos or turbos in general would be of real help.
Thanks to all,
Dean

I have a 94 Saturn SL2 in which water runs off the roof into the passenger
compartment. Thus far, Saturn has ignored the problem hoping that I wi
will go away. Need support from other SL2 owners who are tired of having
wet trousers (or skirts) every time they drive in – or after- rain.
