The steering problem sounds to me like a fluid issue. Whats the model, make, year, and past problems.

The blinking light is either an electric problem or perhaps you have to push a button. Some later Japanese models require a button to push to turn off the belt light, to make sure youre paying attention. An annoying and unnessacary feature if you ask me.

That would be me. But since I cant physically look at the car, yes, go to a mech.

No, and that made no sense--Im at a damn computer. But some one will attempt to because she's a woman.

Shop around and get atleast 4 estimates. And Im sure you have a couple friends who are grease monkeys, and they might be able to fix your problem.

And while I'm at it; we dont do repairs, esa. Its a performance and detail shop. We intsall performance parts, such as sway bars, nitrous, brake calipers, and even luxury features, such as hydraulics and undercarriage neon lights.

We also do paint jobs and minor paint details.



In case its not obvious, Im trying to HELP her.

Something very minor such as that, we would probably do for free (because we want you to come back). Just as long as you brought your own racing pad in, of course. Racing pads are pretty inexpensive at places such as Checkers and Auto Zone. You can get custom ones on the internet for under 30 bucks, homes.

So your a racer, huh? What do you drive? And what are you running under the hood, ese?

Replace your altenator with a starter. That should do it. If it's still not running, trim your timing belt with a pair of scissors until it's about 2mm wide for best results.
