#880 of 907 Re: timing belt replacement period [espo35] by denvertrakker Oct 16, 2009 (4:27 pm)
Replying to: espo35 (Oct 16, 2009 4:00 pm) Not exactly true. See here:   http://townhall-talk.edmunds.com/direct/view/.f1bc404   In addition, it is certainly necessary under certain conditions to replace the timing chain - I speak from personal experience on my Nissan Stanza - but not usually, and not at the intervals recommended for a belt.

Replying to: espo35 (Oct 16, 2009 4:00 pm) The GLS has a timing belt, the SE and Limited have a timing chain, I hope this clears up any confusion, as posters stated earlier their are different engines for these models, the one for the GLS is a smaller V-6. I own a 2007 GLS and it has a timing belt.

Replying to: rick2456 (Oct 06, 2009 9:10 am) others, like costco, I have to hold the nozzle at a certain angle to fill up.   Same issue with us. Some nozzles we have to tilt the handle up in order to get the gas to not keep shutting off before the tank is filled.

Replying to: thunderbird (Jan 05, 2007 5:40 pm) 18 inch tires for the limited cost around $220.00 tire alone at costco and sams. Tirerack has some at around $110.00   I have 30k on my 07 limited and the stock tires are still in fine shape. But if you get a nail in one expect to pay big bucks for a patch. They wanted like 50 bucks to patch it. They blamed the size of the tire and that TMPS thing that checks air pressure or whatever its for, it is the valve steam. I read they cost 5 bucks but the tire places like to jack up the cost for replacement. If it were me I would just leave the old one in place, but these bozos always want to cut them off. Tiresplus changed the flat for 24 bucks, which was a deal.

Replying to: rick2456 (Jun 18, 2009 6:26 am) Where did you get your Kumhos I am looking at those for future replacements? Are they still doing good? Replies to this message: rick2456 (Oct 24, 2009 7:45 pm)
#887 of 907 How much did you pay for your 7500 mile service? by rich123 Oct 20, 2009 (3:37 pm)
So I am due for the 7500 mile service. I assume most folks get an oil change also at the 7500 mile service. How much did you pay and has anyone had their service intervals done by a third party? Replies to this message: denvertrakker (Oct 25, 2009 4:44 pm)
#888 of 907 Gas pump shuts off before tank is full by roxye Oct 21, 2009 (12:20 pm)
I have a 2003 Hyundai Santa Fe. The gas pump at any gas station shuts off repeatedly while fueling. This is a recent problem, but it is getting worse. I have to hold the gas pump handle throughout the entire fueling process, and even doing that, it takes forever to fill up. The gas pump acts as though the tank is full. Is there a solution to this problem?

Replying to: gunga64 (Oct 20, 2009 12:05 pm) I got mine from discount tire, but tirerack.com also sells them for a little bit cheaper. They are pretty and better than the OEM duelers.
