What drive shaft problem you talking about? I don't remember what issues there were. As for the hot foot, tell them when the climate control is in the OFF position, Hot air blows at the feet.



BTW, My climate control has finally broke down and it won't change positions anymore(check my old post about this). It use to only happen in the winter when really cold but now it's stuck for good. I'm taking mine in as well shortly. Mine appears to have a vacum leak sound as if the controls are either jambed or leaking air.



Good Luck,

They will tell you that the hot feet thing is normal. Seach for my post about the hot feet fix, this is the only way easily fix this without cutting or installing valves. should only take about five minutes to do if you aren't even the slightest bit mechanically inclined.

I think you mean the ticking noise from the engine? If so, that's the balancer shaft noise or something like that. I don't remember the post off hand.

I notice that HOT air is blowing at my feet even with the A/C off. Is this the fix for this, because it is killing me.
