    Hard time removing goo from emblem

    Hi guys. I'm having a hard time removing the sticky crap from the emblem. I removed the emblem and used WD-40 and still won't come off. Any other ideas w/o damaging the paint? Thanks.

    Problems with painting chrome bumpers >:(

    Yup. It came out well with no chipping. I'll post pics tom with the whole procedure. You HAVE to grind down all the chrome or else it won't stick. Taking off bumpers took 30 min. Prepping took 2-3 hrs. and painting took 1-2 hrs.

    Gas Mileage dropped like a rock

    Really? I have a 98 2wd limited getting 300 miles before the light comes on. 18.5 gallon tank which comes out to 16.2mpg. That's not including the gas left after the light. I think I can get 320-330miles with a full tank.

    BIG BANG, no 2WD

    My bad u guys. I always thought CV joints were the same on most vehicles. I had the same thing happen to me on 2 front wheel drive cars (honda and toyota) and it also happened to my 911 porsche recently. Everytime it was my cv joints that failed. Sorry for the bad advice. ;)

    Like I said it's ur rear CV joints. They broke or loosened.

    Sounds like cv joints. Check all of them. Make your wife drive the car in 2WD and check to see if the axles spin in the rear. When it's in 4wd it's only spinning the front wheels if the cv joints in the rear failed. Easy and cheap fix if's it is (CV)
