Bad Jumpstart? Audio Won’t Work.?

By admin on Monday, November 16th, 2009 | 3 Comments

I have a 1996 Lexus gs300 which until yesterday was in tip-top condition. A friend of mine had a dead battery, so I jumped [no pun] to the rescue and used my car to jumpstart his (a Rover 400). Ever since, my audio won’t work. The speakers are creaking and popping all over the place. [...]

By admin on Monday, November 16th, 2009 | 4 Comments

For about the past year, my car has been making funny noises. I would describe it as a low groaning noise. The groaning noise is very loud from inside the car, so loud that I have to turn the radio up really loud in order to hear the music. It cannot be heard from -outside- [...]

What Is Wrong With My Aftermarket Remote Start?

I’ve been having problems with it for about 6 months, where 50% of the time the factory alarm would go off when the engine started. I thought maybe it was the battery or the remote, so I changed the batteries in both remotes and now I can only unlock the doors and the engine will [...]
