1) Headlight out 2) Turning noise 3) Wiper 850 1996

posted by  someone claiming to be Sam on  Thu Mar 1 11:51 CST 2001 [RELATED]

Was just browsing, thought I'd toss these out there:

1) My headlight went out (fist time). How hard is it to change this? I would think its a DIY. Are the lights readily available at any auto parts store or need to go to dealer? Fair price?

2) I get a soft scraping noise from front end (haven't been able to pin down L vs R) when making L turns, best heard in parking garages. It didn't happen previous to having L front hub repaired/replaced. It doesn't seem to be progressing.

What does this suggest?

3) My wiper blade/mount occasionally comes off at the point where it connects with the arm. Does this imply the blade/mount is worn out, or the arm?

(I apologize in advane for terminology, "there are no dumb questions" I'm told)

I'm about to head in to dealer to get these, and a few other things fixed. Was looking for some Brickboard education/ammunition before going.

Thanks to all, in advance.

    2) Had a similiar problem a couple weeks ago. I ended up slightly bending back (towards the center of the car) the brake backing plate. Bent it back only about 1/8th of an inch. Problem disappeared.
