If by Goodrich you mean BF Goodrich, they're not part of Michelin but they are good. BFG is American and Micheline are French
I think that I'm going to go with the BFG Traction TA. They're 91 a pice at BJs and I know a few people with them that are pleased. I always had good luch with BFGs. I love the Michelins that I put on my wife's Pathfinder but the Alt doesn't get driven enough to justify that extra expense. I'm hoping that BJs will have that coupon in the next couple of weeks

Prologue - I stand corrected. BFG is owned by Michelin but I think manufactured in the US. I got the T rated traction TAs and so far, so good. They're quieter than the OEM bridgestones and the traction feels good. I got a chance to test it out with the snow yesterday and really not bad.

I'm pretty sure you can buy sealants, but I wouldn't recomend it. just buy yourself a new radiator and save a lot of hassle and head ace in the future.

The sealant will clog the heck out of the entire cooling system. Definately penny wise pound foolish. There are some head gasket sealants that are worth the bother, but not just for a radiator

I don't imagine any car with 240 hp is going to do that well in the snow. not much weight for all that power.

Do you have traction control? With 240 going to the front wheels, it won't take much to break em loose. Even with my 4, I never found the car to be too good in the snow because the front wheel wells get packed with snow

I have a 2005 nissan altima, it has the check engine light on, it stalls many times on low speeds, I had the cam sensor and the crankshaft sensor newly installed and still have the same problem plus the RPMs are now higher than before, I had diagnostic test and the errors it gave me were the engine speed signal circuit, the idle speed is higher/lower than expected and i still get the crankshaft sensor error can anybody help me? What should I do next?

In general, it seems that the most of I have heard is that don't bother wasting time on the check engine light. I had a toyota Mr2 and lived with it for 9 years and 220,000 miles. I live in Maryland and we get a radio and tv program called "Goss' Garage." This guy is a master diagnostician. He also takes calls while he is in his office. So, check him out. By the way, I am not related to him in any way. I do know that when he recommends a repair shop, they are usually top notch. Case In point. My sons has a 300Z which had a transmission slipping problem. The shop he went to on Goss recommendation did a ton of work fixing the problem, at a reasonable price.
