Jump in the back, don't sit on the seat. Grab with both hands the middle of the passenger side at the bottom edge near the floor. Pull with effort straight up. do the same for driver side rear seat. move back seat out. remove old french fries and put the found quarters in your pocket for the next car wash. grab tools and have fun!

 

Welcome to the club

 

lol, i'm about as mechanically inclined as a 3 year old girl, i'm definately gonna need a good written tutorial that's step by step if i'm gonna attempt the repair =)

 

also, is there anyway to tell if the timing belt has been replaced or do I just need to replace it asap? Also once it's replaced, it's good for 60k?

 

Post picturesssss !!!

Just checked it and it still works with the pics. Great DIY!

In your case leave it attached and lift up on the assembly. You should be able to get your head low enough to look at where the float arm attaches near the top. look at the circuit board. this should help.

disconnect negative battery terminal!

 

you'll get thru this... baby steps for your first DIY. Where's the pictures at?

 

i'm at work, so can't check this right now, but if your right, your the man! That would save me at least $650 for the job according the my local mechanic

 

thank you so much!

 

lol, thanks, I live in Oklahoma and I don't know if u guys have heard or not, but we've had 3 earthquakes in the last weeks and horrible storms, so not exactly good picture taking weather =)

 

$10,600 is a good deal in reality. Dont look at book values anymore, they mean nothing. I am a car dealer.

 

Nice pick up welcome to CL that is some low miles you have on that car

 

thanks, I can't wait to post pics of the inside and outside, because it literally is in the same shape a 2010 or 2011, amazing inside and out. My dad stil think it's too good to be true on the price we got it for and something serious is gonna go wrong, because we were looking for 3 months before we found this and most of it was junk. Was primarily looking at Infinit G35's and Acura TL's because these cars were out of my price range, but after driving this car, it was on a different level than those cars. Those cars seem cheap and kinda cheezy inside compared to this bad boy!

 

ok, went to the site and registered and pulled up the maintenance records and the last one they showed was from 2005 and had 28k on it and it had a short in the battery, nothing though from 28K on, argh! All if was from Santa Monica, California too
