Question today on my 02 PT she overheated pretty bad. The fan is the culprit. Im going to trouble shoot if it's the actual fan motor itself or the wiring. I pulled over in the closest safe spot and the car was in the red "H" zone for under a minute total but it was steaming clouds of steam and...

Hello, so this week I went to go replace the sway bar bushings. To sum it up its been a disaster... 3 out of 4 of the bracket bolts broke and the 4th is rounded off. So I drilled out 2 of the holes in hopes to get a bolt and nut onto it, however realized that wouldn't work because there's no...

Hi, so on my 2004 PT Cruiser I’m noticing very small amounts of coolant by the belt, which is getting into the belt and making it nice and squeaky. I’m aware I may have to replace the belt now, but I want to fix the small coolant leak before that for obvious reasons. In the picture attached I...
