Silver LT Posted February 10, 2007 Report Share Posted February 10, 2007 Here is my list so far, before I hit 36,000 miles: 1. Replace the steering shaft 2. Repair the low speed clunk when turning - cross member bolts 3. Place the steering wheel buttons - paint worn off 4. New gas cap - tether too short Anybody have any other ideas?

fast4popper Posted February 10, 2007 Report Share Posted February 10, 2007 instrament cluster!!!!!!! pricey fix and it will go bad. also wiper motor will go bad too. and check your heater controler for burnt out lights. I just took mine apart and have 5 bulbs burnt. 180 bucks for a new one. or 95 to fix this one.... those are some of my ideas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
