I love my Yokohoma Geolanders H/T-S G051's. However, I may opt for the Goodyear Fortera TripleTred. I've seen someone else on another board that likes them plus the reviews on various tire websites is great. Looks like a great tire!

Cabin Air Filter does exactly what is says, simply put...it filters the air inside of your car (cabin). It's located in the glove box. Open up the glove box, you'll see a removable panel on the back wall. Then you'll have access to another removable panel (just pull). The filter can then be accessed and pulled out. It's located in the cabin air blower unit. The Air Filter is located under the hood in the engine compartment drivers side. Just follow from the battery toward the driver and you'll see a black square box. The Air Filter is in there, just unsnap the clamps and open the box. The Air Filter filter is more complicated in what it does. Simply put, it filters outside air through the air intake to be used for combustion. All of the above can be done without tools.

Win Win? Maybe they need the work? The dealership doesn't take the hit, who holds the warranty does. So, they need the work, and you have a problem prone tranny with moderate mileage on it. You're then a happy customer and hopefully will return! Ask them if they'll do mime too!

For what it's worth, the dealership I've been to said yes and no. No at low speeds, but at higher speeds you will have some damage. Sounds like a interference engine to me.

Yeah, I've used the Mobil 1 filters a couple of times. Thinking of going to 0W-30, opinions?

103K and haves always used 5W-30Mobil 1 with K&N filter. I am seriously considering switching to Amsoil or Castrol Syntec but keeping the K&N filters.

Good idea, I did just that and the belt looks new. bright letters and belt is shiny. I'll still shoot for 130K but at least it looks like it isn't so much of a roll of the dice.

2001 with 103K on mine with orig belt. Planning to go until 125K, big question for me is do you change out the water pump while you're there?

More info on the test: SELF-DIAGNOSTICS An Electronic Control Unit (ECU) within A/C-heater control panel monitors system circuits and stores trouble codes in memory if problems are detected. All codes, except Codes 22 and 23, are stored in memory. Malfunction is current if Code 22 or 23 is displayed. To retrieve stored codes, see RETRIEVING CODES. Codes are displayed at temperature display. See Fig. 2. RETRIEVING CODES 1) Simultaneously press and hold AUTO and recirculated air switches. See Fig. 2. Turn ignition on. All indicators will flash 4 times, at one-second intervals. Tone will sound when indicators flash. 2) A/C system will enter self-diagnostic mode. To end indicator check, press and release OFF switch. Read codes at temperature display. 3) If trouble code is displayed, proceed to appropriate trouble shooting procedure. See DIAGNOSTIC CODE IDENTIFICATION table. Codes are displayed in ascending order. To slow rate at which codes are displayed, press fresh air button to change display to step operation. Each time fresh air button is pressed, display changes by one step. 4) If tone sounds as code is displayed, problem currently exists. If tone does not sound as code is displayed, problem occurred in past and does not presently exist. Code Diagnosis 00 ...............Normal 11 (1) ..........In-Vehicle Temperature Sensor Circuit 12 (2) ..........Ambient Temperature Sensor Circuit 13 ...............Evaporator Temperature Sensor Circuit 14 ...............Coolant Temperature Sensor Circuit 21 (3) ..........Solar Sensor Circuit 22 (4) ..........Compressor Lock Sensor Circuit 23 (4) ..........Pressure Switch Circuit 31 ...............Air Mix Door Position Sensor Circuit 32 ...............Air Inlet Door Position Sensor Circuit 33 ...............Air Outlet Door Position Sensor Circuit 41 ...............Air Mix Door Servomotor Circuit 42 ...............Air Inlet Door Servomotor Circuit 43 ...............Air Outlet Door Servomotor Circuit (1) - If in-vehicle temperature is -4 F (-20 C) or less, Code 11 may set even though system is normal. (2) - If outside air temperature is -58 F (-50 C) or less, Code 12 may occur set though system is normal. (3) - If testing is done in a dark area, Code 21 may set even though system is normal. Shine a light at solar sensor and recheck codes. (4) - Malfunction is current. Code is not stored in memory. ACTUATOR CHECK 1) Perform step 1) of RETRIEVING CODES. When system enters self-diagnostic mode, press recirculated air button. Each mode door, motor, and relay will operate at one-second intervals. Press fresh air button to display codes one at a time, and perform step-by-step actuator check. 2) Check airflow and temperature by hand. Tone will sound each time display code changes. Each display code is associated with a system operating condition. Press OFF button to cancel actuator check mode.

Push and hold the AUTO button and the Recirculation button at the same time for 5 seconds. Place the key in the ignition while holding the buttons down. Turn ignition so ON and release the buttons. On your display screen you will see numbers flashing, they will cycle through and repeat. Post those numbers you see, hit the Recirculation button again and the AC system will run through a diagnostic test. Hit the OFF button to cancel everything out.
