yes on newer car the service will come do to all the new sensor they got now it is to expand your car's lifeI am looking to buy a 2000 acura integra is it normal for the service engine light 2 come on when needs oil ch
NO, if it stays on then this means there is a problem with the environmental controls. have the light repaired, or if the owner refuses buy it for 500 bucks it could be one of a million things, this is why it is being sold...I am looking to buy a 2000 acura integra is it normal for the service engine light 2 come on when needs oil ch
most newer cars have a '; reminder'; regarding oil changes, but i wouldn't rely on the sellers word , i would take it to an autozone, or a o'reilley's or some other store for a free diagnostic exam, it could be something more serious, remember BUYER BEWARE!

? why would a truck have 15 quarts of oil/serviced by Jiffy/lube?
it almost caught on fire smoked hard/ can it affect the seals. Brake masters did the fix put some dye in it to check they said to come back in week.? why would a truck have 15 quarts of oil/serviced by Jiffy/lube?
these guys are true as to the problems coming from too much oil in an engine. perhaps the lube tech read it wrong or had the wrong vehicle engine pulled up on the computer. they SHOULD have noticed it before you left because anyone knows you always check your oil level after you change it. but i DO take a bit offense to those offering words of help who say that those in the quick-lube business are NON-mechanics. yes, walmart, jiffylube, precision tune, etc, supply the most problems that we see come through our shop. but i myself DO mechanic work, i know what i am doing, and it really pisses me off to no end when others say we arent real mechanics. while the majority may not be, some of us are, so dont group us all together? why would a truck have 15 quarts of oil/serviced by Jiffy/lube?
I think you've caught on! Fast oil change joints are manned with non-mechanics who make too many horrible mistakes. Why did you go to another non-mechanic brake shop? Jiffy Lube should be held accountable for any damages today and in the future to your motor. Are you aware what too much oil in a crankcase can do? - The crankshaft beats the living dog-meat out of the extra oil filling it with air bubbles very similar to an old fashoned milk shake. The oil pump forces air filled oil through the bearings and valve train. It's not unusual to actually seize a motor with too much oil.
Would help to know what kind of truck. Anyway, they probably did not think and the computer told them it was a deisel. I worked for the walmart lube express and a coworker did exactly that. The computer listed the truck as a deisel, so he put the 15 quarts of oil required by a deisel engine. Yes it can affect the seals. That much oil would put a lot of pressure on system while running. I would complain big time to Jiffy Lube and never go back there again. That might be the ';Im a real mechanic and they are not'; part of me talking though
if it is a ford diesel, that one takes 15 qts. but if an engine is over filled,that puts a great load on the front and rear main seals. it can create a major leak. since you did not mention a year, make or model i cannot go into it much more than that.
ford diesel 15 qts, dipstick is incorrectly marked but that is the correct oil quantity
dodge power stroke, 12 qts
chevy duramax 10 qts.
If it's not a diesel an idiot filled it

IF YOU OWN a 2002 - 2006 Mitsubishi Lancer & have the service manual,could you tell me what GRADE oil is recc.
....what GRADE OIL is reccomended eg. 5w-30, 5w-20, 10w-30 etc. Engine is a 2.0L ( no turbo) OZ rally auto. Just want to know what oil the Manafacturers manual reccomends. I suspect it's 5w-30 up %26amp; to -29 to +38 degrees is my guess but i dont know.IF YOU OWN a 2002 - 2006 Mitsubishi Lancer %26amp; have the service manual,could you tell me what GRADE oil is recc.
just follow everything in the manual to avoid any engine damage

I got a bmw 325i at 64,000 miles.It has clocked 93000 now.I have done just oil changes.Is any service due ?
You should pay attention to the service indicator. It will tell you when the next oil service or inspection is due.
You didn't say what year your BMW is.
All 3 series BMWs should have a brake fluid flush every 2 years. If your 325i is over 2 years old, take the VIN to a BMW dealer and have them pull up the service history. They can tell you if the car is due for the service.
Cooling system drain and refill depends on model year. Yours may need it done.
Most 3 series BMWs should get new spark plugs and oxygen sensor at 100,000 miles.I got a bmw 325i at 64,000 miles.It has clocked 93000 now.I have done just oil changes.Is any service due ?
Least, I would service the spark plugs.
Bare minimal, I would check out that plastic radiator neck. If it snaps, the car would over heat. This is how most of BMWs go - over heated engine causes cylinder head to warp, head gasket leaks, and runs several thousand dollar repair bills.I got a bmw 325i at 64,000 miles.It has clocked 93000 now.I have done just oil changes.Is any service due ?
I would suggest a timing chain soon. Engines are expensive.
was the timing belt changed at the time you bought it? I would change the belt and water pump, flush the block and radiator,, and change fuel filter, run some fuel cleaner in tank, change the plugs and air cleaner, I have over 280K on all my bmw and I have three of them
/ You might want to have the transmission fluid changed.
The transmissions are not long lasting on BMW's.
Ok if it is an e30 then the timing belt needs changed every 60,000 miles if it is an e36 the look at your radiator, inspection 1 and 2, look at the owners manual. a good investment for these cars is a Bentley maintenance manual.

Oil painting ';REPAIR'; service?
I have an oil painting that was damaged this week. It has been in the family about 60 years. It is not an antique or Masterpiece but a very detailed landscape painting. It was painted on paper (not cloth). Three pieces of paper were ';SCRATCHED '; away from the painting. Torn off if you will. Where do i find someone who could repair this? A college art school? What fees would i expect to pay? Hourly? I live outside of Detroit, Michigan. Thank you.Oil painting ';REPAIR'; service?
I restore oil paintings and depending on the size of your damage is how someone would charge you. Size of the damaged area and you will likely pay a little more because it was on paper and not canvas. Price though depends on size of damage. Try contacting a local college art instructor they may have their class restore it for free for you as a lesson on repairs for their students.Oil painting ';REPAIR'; service?
WELL IT WILL BE A LOT OF MANY FROM YOUR PACKET ...WELL IF YOU CAN AFFORDED JUST CONTACT ME ....... HOW OLD IS THE PICTURE .. AND HOW BIG IS THE DAMAGED AREA?? AND HOW BIG IS THE PICTURE ??/
google for a restoration service or go to any local gallery and they should be able to point your way.
You need a Fine Painting Restorer service. Here is a link to some...listed in order by the State. There are several in Michigan.
I'd definitely ask to see some samples of similar canvases. And check with the Better Business Bureau. Good luck.hidden myspace
