I just replaced my rack, not from noise but worn passenger side internal rack bushing. Wheel on that side was loose. Not a bad job, 2 hours to remove and 1 hr 20 minutes to install. My next job is the driver side axle seal leaking, this Malibu is turning into my hobby LOL. 42 K miles 04

| Sometimes when I am driving along it will suddenly feel like something else has control of my front wheels and the steering feels loose. I had in the shop and they said it was the steering computer and reprogrammed it....i was on my way home and had the same problem. Any suggestions what it might be? | |

Replying to: tkay73 (Apr 13, 2009 4:25 pm) Another problem is every so often the left front turn signal socket gets corroded and stops blinking. I just pop out the bulb and smear some dialectric grease on it and it's fine. It NEVER happens to the right side. I even had the dealer replace the whole front lamp assembly. I had to get most of the exhaust pipe and muffler replaced because of a crack but that was at well over 100K. I have a slow leak in one rear caliper. Overall I'm fairly satisfied with the car. Engine still runs strong and doesn't burn oil. Still gets decent mpgs. Tranny seems to be OK. No problems shifting or slipping. I've had the fluid changed twice in 130K. Original coolant too.

Replying to: emmagata (Apr 14, 2009 7:10 pm) not sure about your vibration....I upgraded to 17 inch aftermarket rims.....several years ago and am very happy with them and the driveability of the car.......no problems with the exhaust to date......and as you stated..engine and trans still seem strong..with good MPG.......did all the major services at 95K and will change all the fluids again at 150K....... |
