#1459 of 1497 Squeaky front end by mattc1

Nov 07, 2008 (12:45 pm)

Just bought and '02 with 28K! Love this car. It's my second Diamonte. When I go over speed bumps or other large bumps, the front end squeaks. Anyone know what causes this and / or how to fix it?
 
My Diamonte is a red LS with power everything. Love the torque! 60 to 90 takes about 3 seconds and pushes you back in the seat! Fabulous!
 
Help with the front end issue is much appreciated.

I am replacing a heater core for a 2001 diamante, and i was wondering if there is a website that has a exploded picture of the installation?

#1462 of 1497 2001 O2 sensor by bbbmom1

My check engine light indicates there's a problem with my O2 sensor. I was told that instead of first replacing that, I could install a Motor Vac, which might solve the problem without the large expense. Does this sound right?

#1463 of 1497 Scary left hand turns! by mdc4

Nov 29, 2008 (9:29 pm)

For the most part my '02 Diamante LS has been very reliable. Recently however when there is a tight left hand turn on the highway my car feels like is beginning to swerve out of control. It never actually swerves but it feels like it could. Right hand turns feel completely normal so I thought it might be a bad tire. I had the tires rotated but it feels exactly the same. If anybody has any thoughts or ideas I'd sure appreciate the help.... Thanks!

#1467 of 1497 water leak by 377paul

May 24, 2009 (3:15 pm)

My '97 D has a water leak. It drips from the right rear of the block below the power steering pump area. I have removed the power steering pump mount completely and tried to find where it was originating. Not a thing to be seen!
I pulled both front and rear timing belt plastic covers and scrutinized the area behind the belt and around the water pump.
I checked around the tube that connects the thermostat housing to the back of the pump.
NOTHING!!
Is there some softplug down behind the crank pulley, or something?
