***NEED SOME HELP!!!!I****I have a 1998 Chevy Malibu 6 cyclender. Here's what's wrong. The dash board lights don't work and the tail lights(not the turn signals,park lights ,hazzards,or brake lights..just the tail lights. And the right passenger side head light...This all happend at different times..!st-head light 2nd dome and tail light problems.. Now, let me tell you what I've done.. Checked all the small colored fuses.. And changed all the tail light bulbs. Installed a new stereo system. If I could get some feedback on this ASAP I'd like to know the best way to go about this Thanks, Ben

Replying to: dwdrummrdude (Apr 23, 2006 5:52 pm) First of all to confirm a few things... If you turn on the parking lights with headlamp switch (just to the PARK position) and walk around vehicle are you saying that the front parking lamps/side markers are ON but both the rear tail lamps are not on? What about the licence plate lamp? For the passenger headlamp, it is inoperative for both high and low beam? How about when in daytime running lamp mode? What is status of both headlamps then. The dash board lamps are tied in with exterior parking lamps and so better to check this other stuff first before digging into what is going on with them. |

Man, this car dents easy! I was repositioning my bike in my garage, and the rear tire just grazed the front passenger door of my 04 Maxx and now I have a small, quarter-sized (or maybe dime-sized) dimple just above the side molding. It's barely noticeable to most people, I suppose, but it bugs me. Does anyone have any experience with the "suction cup method" of removal? How about the dry ice method I've heard about? Or would a Dentworks or Dent Wizard outfit do it for not too many $$? I'm not sure it would be worth it. Thanks.

Replying to: pao (Apr 25, 2006 7:45 am) FYI, the '04 Maxx I am running seems to burn very little oil. - have never had to refill between 3000 mile changes (oil level changed little if at all).

Replying to: eranc (Apr 21, 2006 11:27 pm) An engine that has excessive oil consumption uses 0.9 L (1 qt) of oil, or more, within 3200 km (2,000 mi).

Replying to: gonogo (Apr 25, 2006 1:26 pm) "But GM claims that 1 quart (32 ounces)every 1000 miles is considered normal so the dealer will not even care" this is two different statements...I agree about excessive oil consumption....dont think GM considers it "normal"

I use mobile 1 and after 5000 miles the oil level has not changed. I would not tolerate a quart useage every 1000 miles. In fact I would be very disappointed in any new car that used a quart in 3000 miles.
