Is there preventative maintenance to extend the life of the brake booster? What is the exact failure? Rubber, metal, electronics for examples.
What if "Murphy's Law", your $500 estimate turns into $1500? If the damage is isolated to the frame horns, sure it could be DIY fixed. But, a...
I don't know your (OP) full story. At 200K mileage I would be hesitant to spend $4K. Noting what is the current car's valuation, plus, is $4K just...
Dirt or sludge? I'd ask how would dirt get into the engine? Besides vandalism, I would look at your intake track and air filter. Perhaps a "dirty"...
If gay means happy ... Ferrari.
Many great insights in the above replies. I would lower to the OEM suggestion (or 1-2 higher - in regards to MPG) and monitor wear. FWIW. Set to...
OP did the EGR cleaning two weeks ago....yesterday the startups have a rattle. Is the rattle engine internal noise? Is the rattle something loose...
Yep, 2nd opinion. FWIW Whirling noise while accelerating would lead me too, to drive axles, bearings, trans. Yet any whirling could be related to...
Critical function? On my V, the 12 volt battery compartment is over the muffler. But a critical part? As you have the part, I would try to...

Rebuilds... another "deep" question. Bumper cover without reinforment or sheet metal without any inner damage may be "safe". Replacement doors...
To clarify... AWD typically it is recommended to replace tires as a set (both fronts or both rears or if one got damage (or worst case all 4)...
Looks like our OP made a decision to AWD. FWIW... If I live in a snow zone...AWD. Costs... only tire replacement would be on the decision tree...
Wow, not sure there is a solid "internet" answer without inspections. Gen 1? Would 5K miles for every year driven be an answer? Would over 100K...
Look for exhaust fume traces at the joints and/ or a crack. Check all the exhaust system bolts. I'd start there. Let us know what you find :)
Boned, not necessarily. You mention your DIY skills, so I'd try the string method first. Get your steering wheel centered and front toe close....
My vote, replace it with your complete parts car axle. But, do inspect that used axle for "damage" and re-grease it fully. If no budget, buy a new...
