    Expy Shudder once in over drive

    I'm with delerious here. After around 45-50 mph when I try to accelerate (slowly so it stays in overdrive) I get the "shudders" too. So now that makes two of us. If anyone has any suggestions or ideas that'd be awesome!!! P.S. I have an '06 XLT

    need some help...BAD!!! Grinding noise in front end!!!

    thanks for the help. What would heve made the noise go away by switching from 2WD to A4WD you think? I went to les schwab and they took everything apart on the front end and looked at all of it and said everything (including bearings) seemed to be intact and functioning properly. I was told...

    need some help...BAD!!! Grinding noise in front end!!!

    Grinding noise coming from under the front of my car I would like to add to my previous post that last night while driving we experienced the grinding noise again and I switched the drive selector switch from 2WD to A2WD and the noise went away. Could this be a clue as to where the problem lies?

    I am by far NOT a tire expert but, I got a set of TOYO PROXES ST tires for my '06 Expy. The set cost me about $820 (which I thought was a good deal). Before these I had a set of Hankook tires that were brand new when I bought my ride & I was severely disappointed in them, to say the least. I...

    Poll about 5.4l V8 and mileage

    did you replace the plugs and coils yourself? Did you have any issues with the plugs breaking upon removal like so many other people? If so, what was the total cost after all was said and done? Thanks, just curious. (I was told that replacing my plugs could run me as much as $1,200!!!)

    A/C Head/Foot selector switch issues....

    Just got back from the shop & everyone was right! It was i minor vacuum leak in the line that feeds the multiple lines to the A/C. (I hope that made sense) So if your like me, try not to lose it if your climate system goes to the "default" setting (defrost/floor vent ONLY). Start looking for a...

    are you planning to make any upgrades with it already? Or are you just talking about "TLC" suggestions? Does it have stock rims or aftermarket?

    Transmission flush/spark plug replacement?

    Thanks man. I actually just got back from a pretty reputable repair shop here in OR. They told me that a tune-up could cost me up to $1200!!! I'm not poor but I ain't rich by any means. Does that seem a little steep to you? If a tune-up is recommended by you (which I want to do) is it...

    Shudders at speeds between 45-55

    quick question for you.....I went to a local auto repair shop here in Medford, OR. It's a pretty reputable shop too (from what I've heard) They wanted to charge me anywhere from $800-1200 for replacing my plugs and coils in a "tune-up" Does this sound unreasonable to you? They said that more...

    A/C Head/Foot selector switch issues....

    Today I went to turn on my A/C. It turns on, however air only blows out of the defrost vents and the floor vents. No matter where I select it to come out, it will not change. It appears that whatever selects where my air blows out is "stuck" Any suggestions please??????
