Re: random misfire [rgnmstr]: by brucelinc on Tue Nov 18 07:32:28 PST 2008; It is a bit tight. A few scapes and scratches are par for the course. Really, though, it isn't as bad as it looks. Once the covers are off and the coil connections are free, the coils pull up and out. The coil boots are 6-8 inches long but are flexible. The first time I had a misfire, I had the dealer do a stress test and he found one bad coil. They participated in an After Warranty Adjustment on that one. Later I had another one go bad so I decided to change the remaining seven myself. I had already changed the plugs once so I knew what I was getting into but had no way to figure out which coil was actually the culprit. Eventually, they all seem to fail anyway. An independent shop might not be too spendy. I don't know what the flat rate manual would say in terms of the time needed for labor but I doubt if it would be more that a couple of hours - just a guess.

Re: I heard... [lemko]: by andre1969 on Tue Nov 18 05:55:49 PST 2008; ...there's a Chrysler dealer near me that has a loaded brand-new never-titled 1979 Chrysler New Yorker Fifth Avenue with the 360 V-8 with three miles on it that's hermetically sealed in a climate controlled facility and they're asking $6K off the original 1979 selling price. Any takers? A '79 5th Ave would have probably stickered for around $12,000 in 1979. So heck, at $6K for a perfect one, I'd jump all over that! But I imagine that, even with all the precautions taken to preserve it, it's still going to randomly refuse to start, the aluminum bumpers are probably peeling, most likely will leak around the opera windows if you get caught out in the rain, probably has interior parts falling off, and has a temperature warning light with a mind of its own, that seems to operate independently of the gauge. Okay, remind me again why I like these things so much? :P

08 XC90 lease incentives: by lmueller on Mon Nov 17 17:47:54 PST 2008; Hi, I have read in earlier posts that Volvo is offering incentives for non-Volvo finance leases on MY2008 XC90's. It was my understanding that the figures were $9750 for 3.2 and $12000 for V8 models, as well as $4000 dealer cash and $2000 loyalty rebates. I am also a Costco member, but in looking at their promotion online, it seems to be valid on 2009 models only. I emailed a local Volvo sales manager (my current XC90 is from his dealership) to verify these figures. He told me the numbers are as follows for independent bank leases: 3.2 Base 11/07/2008 - 11/30/2008 $4,750 3.2 Non Base 11/07/2008 - 11/30/2008 $6,000 V8 11/07/2008 - 11/30/2008 $9,250 Residual/Money Factor for 36 month lease/12K miles/year MY 2008 33% .00254 He also mentioned that Volvo is offering special lease rates on the 08 (not combinable with the $4000 dealer cash) ranging from .00001 to .00164 depending on term and model (I have asked for specifics on this, but haven't had a reply just yet). Do these numbers sound correct to you? My current lease of a 2006 XC90 is over in April, and I was thinking about leasing another one sooner if the deal was significantly better than what I am currently paying. ($450/mo for 7 pax FWD w/premium & versatility pkgs). Thanks in advance for your help!

Re: 2009 Malibu lease rates [th83]: by Car_man on Mon Nov 17 17:12:06 PST 2008; Hey th83. Unfortunately, for both them and you, General Motors' liquidity issues have forced it to pull the plug on both its special financing and lease programs. If you want to lease a Malibu, or even to finance one, in November you will have to do so through an independent bank. Without any manufacturer support, the lease programs that are available on the Malibu probably are not very attractive. If you are set on leasing, you will probably be better off going with a different model. Car_man Host Prices Paid: Buying & Leasing Experiences Forum

Re: Update on '04 Forester XT needing new engine [xwesx]: by tanager on Mon Nov 17 07:29:43 PST 2008; Just thought I'd follow up with the outcome of this situation. I ended up taking my car back to my independent mechanic. I gave up on having any work done at the Subaru dealership when the service manager told me, honestly, that I would probably get no help from Subaru with three things working against me: 1) not being the original owner, 2) not buying the car from Subaru dealer, and 3) having over 100K miles on the car. I decided risking $850 for the teardown was not worth it. So, my mechanic installed a used engine from another '04 Forester with 32K miles on it. I just got my car back a week ago. It seems OK but it has a "lifter tick". It's quite audible. My mechanic wants me to drive it a lot to see if the tick goes away. This weekend I put about 400 miles on the car and the tick is still there. The total for this job came to $4660 for the engine and labor. The engine has a 90 day warranty on parts, so I guess I'll keep driving it and see if the tick lessens.

Re: Audi vs. BMW 5 Series?? [esf]: by dewey on Sun Nov 16 19:18:58 PST 2008; So you, Tagman, Tony ( I think) and myself are interested in hybrids. All four of us are unique in the sense that we all tend to favor German models but may end up buying Japanese or US (Volt) models. The Germans better hurry up with their versions of hybrids. I think hybrids will remain hot even with lower fuel prices since now other factors play a role in hybrid purchases (Green motives, political fuel independence,risk of future higher fuel prices, diesel prices too high, interesting drivetrain technology and for many--- trendiness)
