Common Problems, Issues, Recalls, and Reliability

  • Charging system may stop working due to fuseable link

    The 80 amp fusible link for the charging system can fail and is often overlooked when diagnosing a charging system that is not working. Our technicians recommend to make sure this fusible link is OK before replacing any charging system components.

  • Manual Transmission Shifting Difficulty

    The manual transmission may become difficult to shift, this is commonly caused by binding between the synchronizer and the gear surface. Adding a special friction modifier to the manual transmission fluid will often correct this condition. If the problem persists revised synchronizer kits may be available.

  • Engine stalling or rough idle due to faulty electrical grounds

    The engine may stall or develop a rough idle with the check engine light illuminated and fault code 15 stored in the ECU . Our technicians tell us that the engine electrical grounds are critical, all 5 should be inspected and cleaned as necessary. An additional ground lead kit is also available which can be installed to help correct this condition.

  • Squeal or squeak noise from rear brakes

    A squeal or squeak type noise may be heard from the rear brakes on application. Our technicians tell us there is an updated rear brake pad shim kit which can help reduce this type of noise.
