no sticker in glove box, however, i did find a website that lists standard and optional equip. on vehicles, url is www.autobytel.com
i do know that the service manager at the auto dealer owned the vehicle before me and so i am just going to call him and see if i can get info needed.
 
but, here's a question, the list states towing capacity of 907 lbs. but the book states that with only 2 passengers it can pull up to 3500. which is it??

Is the DIC the little screen with the tachometer that tells me when the door is ajar, the fuel is low, etc... if so, how can I scroll through the options?
Thanks

No, the DIC (if equipped) is a screen below speedo. Here is the procedure if you don't have it: With the key in ON positionbut engine off, FULLY push and release the accelerater pedal slowly 3 times in 5 secs. turn key off. If the light comes back on it didn't reset, try again. (maybe do the depress pedal a little quicker) I have heard for some it takes quite a few tries to get it reset until you find the magic combo of slowly/quickly doing the pedal thing. Good Luck

Hhmm, My 2001 manual states (under weight of trailer topic):
 
It should never weigh more then 1,400 Lbs. with up to 5 occupants in the vehicle or more then 2,000 lbs. with up to two occupants. It further goes on to say IF you have optional trailer towing package you can tow up to 2,900 lbs. with up to 5 occupants or up to 3,500 lbs. with up to two occupants. Even then it could be to heavy id your mountain climbing or its hotter then blazes out or you plan on driving 90MPH (the stuff you would expect)

Would it be easier to go to my mechanic and get them to reset it with their computers? My mechanic won't charge me if it takes less than a minute or two. Just wondering.
 
Thanks

It might be easier for you . I think your mechanic would have to go thruogh the same process to reset it. Its not real difficult, just may take a few times to get it.

Replacing the Brake Pads by wearesaylors

Hey quick question. I have an 01 Aztek, FWD. We are replacing the brake pads tomorrow morning, with a set of ceramic brake pads. Anyone done the brakes on these before? Is it fairly standard, or is there something tricky to it? A rapid response would be great.
Thanks

'03 Tek by bmurf1

I have a 2003 Tek with the 1SC package w/o leather or HUD. (Wish I had that) oh well. I pull a pop-up camper which weighs 3000lbs. I get about 16.5 mpg. WOW!! And that was in the summer going to Traverse City, MI from St. Louis, MO. I have the tow package which is great. I have also had many problems w/brakes but am through that now. Once the warranty was over I did the work myself and have not had a problem since (1 year) I have done other work as well.
Is anybody having trouble with their transmission shifting hard? I have had this problem a little over a year now and the dealer could not find anything wrong. They did however replace the tranny wiring harness. If anybody hasn't had theirs replaced, they should (03-05). They know it is an issue. If anybody has anything else to add, that would be great. Also, if you need help changing a thermostat, you can look me up.
Thanks,
Brian
