    Service Engine Light Still / Chirping from Right front engine Area

    Also would it be an adjustment to the s belt pulley? Or do we have to change the S belt which cannot be cheap. Normally it quite a bit of labor to do this I gather? Thanks again CL

    Service Engine Light / Sputtering...Again

    Joey Ran seafoam through the drivers side as you mentioned and it pulled a nice vacuum and created some beautiful nasty smoke. I am hoping this resolves the slight hesitation I was experiencing. So far so good as its has not happened in a few days. Good suggestion and thanks. CL

    ACE/Brakes Thanks Joey Great. Its a rubber hose as its seems to be leaking from the clamp area so this is probably the cause. I am planning to have my LR guy take the car for a rough turn ride to see how the hydralics are working to be safe. On the brakes, the tank has 57K so its long...
