Ok, so can someone please help me out here??? Will a f25m-r from a 1996 1.8 manual bolt on a 1999 1.8 manual? Yes I know this has been an on going problem for me but I may have found a trans for mine and id like maybe a little insight if this should work? My '99 has been sitting at a trans...

UPDATE. Internals of trans is a mess. Replacement an absolute necessity. Trying to locate one....We shall see....

YUP......ITS SCREWED. Put it in the air and threw it in gear off lift...passenger side barely wants to engage the wheel. Only drivers side spinning. Not strut towers.. Definitely the diff in the trans...knocking is from the engaging ( or lack there of ) of the passenger side catching. Of...

SOOOooooooo.....................after a long time of waiting on the mechanic who has my car I will finally get into the shop with him to inspect in the air. He claims is even worse now.....how much worse could it be if it still binds up and releases with a bang and leaks all its tranny fluid on...

As for the washers...I dont know. I will have to ask the guy who did it for me. Id like to say that I did it but I just didnt have the time. (very frustrating being busy with work) I doubt it honestly. In reference to the trans fluid my mechanic said it was a huge puddle (twice, one before new...

OK, Great to get some feedback. So, when the issue started that was when the leakage showed itself, I never saw it cuz he picked up almost immediately. From what my mech says it does seem like full leak (not just weep leakage). Since he got the car into the shop we have tried changing the...

Glad to see that many can look at this and make no insight or recommendation. Thanks.

Ok, so I have a 1999 Protege ES and Im at a loss at this point. So long story short, at slow speeds, I turn left, steering seems to bind the release with a bang. As I drove it to work I could feel that when I would steer left it wanted to pull everso slightly to straight. I had my mechanic...

I have a 1999 es and have been casually shopping for headlights. I found a good looking set on headlights.me. Has anyone purchased from them and can vouch that the quality is pretty good or should I stay away? Thanks in advance. https://www.headlight.me/images/headlight_me/HL-MZPR99-BK-OP.jpg

So I have a '99 ES and I know that the previous owner had a little bump and ride accident previously. It is not that much out of wack but the headlight is pushed in just a little bit. I was wondering if anyone had measure points to make sure the front rad support and such were lined up...

AWESOME SCORE......Wish mine was as crisp. I found mine from a young couple who was expanding their family and this sweet ride was just too small for them now. Only $1100, 160k miles with no records or anything though. So I flat bedded it straight to the shop and did the whole timing and pump...

Ok I know I'm seriously delayed and im way over thinking this but the bolts.......am I only using a camber adjustment bolt on the top or am I using them on the bottom and the one above it?? Can anyone help me out here. I'm learning as I go with this. I've been a truck guy my whole life. Sorry...

I'm tired of looking. Do I need only one camber bolt / lower strut mount and one regular strut mount bolt per corner??. And if that's the case where do I get them without paying an entire paycheck for bolts.

Damn...thanks for the details. As many others, I too have this problem. Ugh

This is so great to have someone care enough to get this thorough. On behalf of us all, THANK YOU!!!!!
