My son says the engine turns over, but no start. Plenty of gas.
Gonna meet him in the morning to try and help.

Easy fix with my son. Installed motor onto rail and on we go.

Changed his passenger windows control knobs (one was broken), and cleaned the car, all that in 2...

Thanks Fredo that was helpful. I considered those option and went with a free shipping one from ECStuning for $50.
Will report back if its a dud, but it says lifetime guaranteed.

The cable is broken it seems or twisted around the motor.
The motor still works it seems. I get a regulator from FCPEuro and mount the motor on it and call it a day?

Rear regulator driver side snapped.

Where would you recommend I buy a replacement part from?

Last time I replaced these in my Toyota Camry, i bought 2 of them from amazon and they literally...

Battery died after 4 years and 1 month!

That's not good, but I think the super cold temps in a unattached garage, combined with being in Europe and not driving for 2 weeks, and leaving the car...

Shawn has had that code because of seriously rusted evap tubes around the gas filling tube (rear right wheel well).

Took this one to the shop for a healthy checkup.

Buying Irish Spring soap as we speak!

I just hope I don't have to pay for this mouse debauchery twice.

Thanks for asking. I think so, the mice have not returned (to my knowledge).
Good to know about soap bars!

At 121,235 miles put on winter tires. On 12/06/20.

Noticed that the Michelins are dry on the edges a bit.

Only drove ~3000 miles this year and need to change the oil! It's been one year since...

At 119,597 miles, put summer tires back on.

Son does not drive car enough, so I told him to drive 15 minutes north on the highway then come back to Lexington.

Make sure it clears that oil...

Ha, didn't know you could get a pest control contract on your car!

No, my son is going to spray some pepermint oil around the engine. It will smell good to him and apparently will tell the mice to...

You are welcome!
