    Last week the gear shift shaft snapped off leaving me in the middle of the road with nowhere to go, luckily a towing company arrived in around 20mins because one of their drivers drove past and I flagged him down and a call was made. Only €65 to fix incl labor, but the tow to the garage was €150 ^ also taken last week.

    Long story short. I'm not a mechanic, I'm medical. Most I ever do is change my oil (on the Explorer not the Infiniti). I have an old '01 Explorer and last week the bearing went out on the AC compressor pulley. Took it to two shops and they both quoted me between 550-700. Bump that. Got on YouTube ... watched a few videos and went "yea, I can do that". -Thursday after work I went at it. Removed the serpentine belt, unscrewed/removed the AC compressor clutch, removed the pulley and clutch coil. Went to the Autozone website and ordered a new AC clutch/pulley/coil package with next day delivery. -Friday (I was off work) the package …

  15. Performance Chip for 6th gen Monte?

    I was bored one day looking on Amazon and I saw something that caught my attention. It is a performance chip that is made specifically for a 6th gen Monte Carlo. The description claims that it adds up to 35 hp and 5 mpg. The cost is around $70. I was curious if anyone here has any experience with performance chips in their Monte. Is it worth it? If so, what brand would you recommend?

    I noticed that it seemed to have been getting worse and worse, now if I'm on a straight and level road and driving straight; the steering wheel is off center. :/ I've had my wheels balanced and an alignment done by a reputable company. Should I worry about this? It's a car from 2004, so its not very old.
