Classic Car Doctor - September 9, 2007 - Hour 2, First Half - Ron Ananian, The Car Doctor (855)560-9900 Dec 08, 2024

Show notes

Ron starts this hour with a Repair of The Week from his shop. A 2000 Saturn with a lean fault code condition and a list of repair attempts elsewhere. A desperate vehicle owner and and impossible to fix car is no stranger to The Car Doctor. Ron walks us through the repair. Next up, Ron takes a call from Tom in North Carolina with some maintenance questions on an 02 Toyota that needs servicing. Ron also talks about oil change routines and intervals base on 2007 standards. Funny to hear the shorter than current requirements for oil change intervals back in 2007.
