    Catalytic converter protection?

    With cat theft running rampant around Las Vegas is there anyone who makes a cat protection plate for a 2006 Burb 1500 2wd? My wife is concerned because of the burb being higher off the ground and easier to get under.

    Battery Tenders-Anyone use them?

    Sitting for a week shouldn't be an issue. How much do you drive it after it's been sitting? I use one between two of our cars. One, Camaro, hasn't been driven in over a year and the tender is on it all the time. The other one, Mustang, might get driven once or twice a month. I'll put the tender...

    Dropped off at the shop and they are going to see if they can use the scanner on it. An update on the ac function. I was driving home and switched on the ac and the compressor engaged and the ac was working on its own without using the manual switch to engage the compessor. After a little...

    AC Compressor not engaging in defrost or AC mode

No obvious leak traces around underhood fittings or hoses. Could be at the front of the compressor or somewhere within the...
