Bumping an old thread but just wanted to say thanks for posting this ages ago. I found it via Google search and for someone who normally doesn't prefer to work on his own car after reading your instruction I decided to give it a shot. I ordered up a FEL-PRO gasket (which also came with new...

I think you'd need to be riding 20" bikes to get one to fit standing up. I do a lot of riding so installed a hitch rack and have a Kuat NV rack.

Thanks Tom03es. There is a Checker Auto nearby and I rang them up and they said they could check it for me. I'll have to see how willing my buddy is to help me fix my car if that is the problem :D as just changing my brake pads and rotors is enough of a challenge for me.

Mind if I piggyback onto this thread. How does one test to see if their alternator is bad? My wife told me her car was dead so I gave her a jump, figuring she might have left the lights on inside the car or something, but later she called me to say the car had just stalled while in rush hour...

Forgot to log on and say thanks to everyone for the advice. It really helped to have better light this time around as I was totally able to see what I was doing wrong. Magus you were spot on, a little back and forth wiggling and it came right off. Of course the rotors that Carquest sold me...

I won't lie at first I did and it was really tight. But then I recalled I had it on and undid it but still no go. Today I have the day off so I'm gonna heat up the garage and give it another go. Thanks for all the help everyone!

I sat down to try and install new pads and rotors on my '02 P5 yesterday and I got stuck when I got to the e-brake. I cannot for the life of me pull hard enough on the e-brake wire to unhook it from the u-hook like thing. I can't really tell enough from these pictures if I'm doing it...

Hey that tweezers works slick ;o) Pulling them out and looking at them didn't really do much for me though. I'll stop and pick some new ones up on my way home just to see. My car is completely stock and go figure I just went past 50,000 miles :p

The other night as I headed home for the night I noticed that my headlights were no longer working. I could get my brights to turn on as well as my fog lights but not my regular lights. I'm a car newb but managed to open the hood (thumb) and find the fuse box. When I click the lights on and...

I was actually looking into this on a different message forum because gas here is now up to 2.49 and I've seen e85 for 1.85. I would love to have that kind of savings. I have actually read though that you get a fewer miles per gallon (not enough to matter because of the cost). Check out...

I just got my Protege about two weeks ago now and I noticed that happened to me as well. Kinda freaked me out caues it really is a good solid white color blowing out of there. Something I have never noticed in my previous Honda. There is still warranty left on the car and I need to bring it...
