camlex Posted May 13, 2007 Author Share Posted May 13, 2007 Lower arm control bushing, Struts, stabelizer bar bushing, Engine mounts. Try to clean MAF, endup buying new. not needed but error code 0150 so change both O2 sensor. before O2 change, Avg was 28 MPG with new O2 sensor didn't make any differance. Other then that it's running good. Every 5000 oil change every 15000 miles trans. oil change with PCV and gromet and air filter. 3-4 years battery, brakes. I don't know how to stop this car so i can buy NEW. Thanks, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
