So I went to the dealer to price these out and holy God! $420/each!!!! Went to a local auto parts store and Autozone and their systems said "dealer only." I've found online some Moog Control arms at $330/each. I'm much more inclined to go with Moog unless anyone else has other...

Again, 2004 LS V8 ok, well I've been busy w/ vacation and what not -- but the problem has gotten substantially worse with time. Still popping quite a bit upon braking. Finally had some time to go by my mechanics today and steal one of his bays and got it up on the lift. After some prying...

Mine has/had the same problem when I first bought it. It's kinda like a "crunchy" sound isn't it? The deeper you press the pedal the more it makes the sound. It is in fact the master cylinder. This isn't the only car it happens to. I know 3 other people, personally, who have had the same thing...

Angel, What was the result of this? What did you do to fix it, if anything? I appear to be having a similar problem upon braking and acceleration Thanks CJ

Guys, it was about 85 degrees outside yesterday which means it was popping and clicking away. I took it to my mechanic because he has yet to hear it. I said, "Pete, this is yours for the day. Drive it anywhere and everywhere and let me know what you think." Well he calls me back like an hour...

Well I guess I'll be the odd man out here... I have Cooper CS4 tires (All Season Performance) and they handle fine. Most snow I've ever driven in w/ this car was 8 inches. On average about 3 - 4 inches. That was in Wichita, KS last year. I didn't get stuck. On the other side of things, I...

That is good to know about the accelerator. When I have some time next, I will try to get it back up on the lift and go over it again from the start. Thanks for the help --

When I say "feel it in the accelerator" it goes along the same lines as the feel in the brake pedal. Have you ever had a warped rotor and when it is beginning to warp you have a small amount of "feedback" in brake pedal. It's nothing big and to the average person they probably wouldn't even...

Joe (and others), I appreciate the reply. It's a 2004 V8, so probably not motor mounts. I definitely feel it in the accelerator. Not as frequently as the brake pedal, but it's definitely there -- I could only wish it was my imagination. I've had this verified from my sister while her car...

I wouldn't worry about the wheels. I had a 1999 Dakota R/T a couple years back. The chrome wheels I had were similar. The chrome was practically perfect, except it was a double spoke wheel and the chrome between the double spokes looked "rough" like yours. My guess is it would have to do with...

I appreciate the help guys. My rotors are about 10K miles old. The pads are literally about 1000 miles old (pretty much brand new). I'm very light on my brakes, so I don't suspect problems w/ the rotors. Rotors are good quality, Pads are Akebono Premiums w/ all new hardware/clips too It is...

Anybody at all? I've headed to my mechanic's on Friday and am looking for a good place to start. Andrizzle, this is a long shot, but have you ever had the Master Cylinder replaced?

I hear more popping and clicking than a refugee from Uganda It started about a week ago and started off very mild. When I was coming a stop I would hear a small pop/click from my front end and feel it in the brake pedal upon coming to a complete stop. Upon acceleration I would somtimes feel...

I do a lot of roadtrips in this car and I'm happy with the MPG. Typically I'm about 25.5mpg. The day I bought it and drove it back on the 3 hour roadtrip it got 27.9mpg. I don't know what was different about that day, but I refueled it when I got back and checked it by hand. That number said...

Just to finish this thread for archive purposes: Dealership looked at it - I'm sure we all knew it was the coils. Coil 3 and 8 failed the stress test. The dealership replaced all 8 with "updated" hardware and I shouldn't have any further coil problems or condensation problems with the...

And the winners are: P0300 - Random Multiple Misfire; and P0303 - Cylinder 3 Misfire. I'm going to the dealership armed with that document and I'm betting the COPs are going south (as if there was ever doubt...). The check engine light is permanently on now. You can feel a definite...

Alright, I'm aware it's probably coils. But in the search function I can't find anything relating to a flashing check engine light. The Basics: 2004 LS V8 70K miles - no prior history Long story short, had a truck tailing my ass on an merge-ramp. Kind of annoyed me, so I went WOT once I...

Lawsuit If a vehicle was bought when the seller made a blantant attempt to deceive the buyer into buying the car - you have a case. Proving it will be difficult, but not impossible with your particular situation -- that's some serious foul play. On that note, I'm guessing the car was...

+1 -- I had this problem, but it was quite random and I could never get it to reproduce itself when I wanted it to. However, I did find the same article, but rather than going through the whole procedure I just poured it in. I have not had a problem since.

I figured I'd post this here too for you guys who might be interested in owning a cool toy. This is a toy of mine, I've worked on it since I was 16 years old (I'm almost 27 now). I know the entire truck's history. It's immaculate and been stored/garaged it's whole life. It has a custom fit cover...
