Hey great advice. It was one of the first things i did when i bought my 05. It is interesting enough that many people do not familiarize themselves with how their spare works. I know everybody thinks it won't happen to them, they have a new car and it only happens to old worn tires. Well...

I had the dealer farm out my 05 SE to a local leather shop that did all of the dealers leather installs. My 05 only came with cloth and the leather they insalled was awesome. It is a dark charcoal color so it matches the SE dark cloth color which matches the door panels and other accesories...

It went to the dealer today and it was done in an hour. just like you guys said it was a grease issue. Thanks for all of your help it aided in steering those guys in the right direction. They should have a link to this site. LOL

So do i understand you right when you say you could order power seats with your 06 SE?

I have an 05 SE 4x4 with V8. After i stop and let off the brakes i hear a loud clunking sound as if one of the brakes did not release with the others. It is definetly in combination with the brakes as this is when i hear it and at no other time. It does not happen all the time but at least 3...

Hey any ideas on glass cleaners? All i get are streaks. How about a certain towel?

I just got an 05 SE with the v8. i now need an alarm system. I was told i can get a better deal aftermarket rather than at the dealer. Any recommendations on brands. I would like something that does not have that annoying chirp when i turn it off and on. I would like the lights/horn etc. to...

Thanks for the info. I am new to all of this and greatful for any advice.

what can the synthetic do for me? What is the price difference? What does the dealer reccomend?

I just picked up 05 SE with the V-8. What is the break in time for the motor. the sales rep said it was 1000 miles at 55 mph or less and no quick starts. What does she know... except what the true price of my car was. Anyone have a differnt answer or reason.

I have no idea. I will check the paperwork and let you know. It is very nice, seems softer that the limited leather but what do i know, i have been spilling coke on cloth all my life.

I went to pick up my new 05 SE with after market leather. This is my first car with leather so i know very little. All looked great except for the back seat. On the raised part where your back goes, it had a lot of excess leather. It is some what puckered and it just looks baggy to me. the...
