    Other ways to access the horn?

    Hey so my horn doesn't work and I wanna take a look at it and see if I can get it to work again. The problem is the screws holding my grill on are rusted and I can't get them off. Is there another way to access the horn? What else can I try to take off so I can get at it?

    Yeah definitely thinking about flushing the brake fluid. The brake rotors I picked up seem to have some rust on them already. That could be the cause of vibration no?

    Hey all. So I now have new pads and rotors on the back. Driven with them for a while now and the noise has come back. I'm not sure what's going on. When I brake hard there is a lot of vibration in the back and my hatch vibrates loudly. I put the car up the other day to take a look and the...

    Brake issues

    Thanks all. I replaced the rotor today, as you said it was actually pretty easy since it's just two bolts. They were pretty on pretty tight though and I was praying that the bolt wouldn't snap. The major noise from the rear and majority of the pulsing has stopped. As I had stated the...

    Brake issues

    Hi all, So I've been having some noise/pulsing on my brakes lately. Lots of noise comes from the passenger rear when I brake, the pedal pulsates and lately the steering wheel shakes as well. I bought new pads for the rear and lubed the caliper sliders hoping this might solve my issue but it...
