@jamessss:
Since the OP has not posted anything to the Car Talk forum for the past 5 months, I really doubt if he/she is still monitoring this thread at this point.
If you have a question about your car, you would be much better-off if you asked questions in your own new thread, rather than “glomming on” to a 5 month old thread that is essentially dead.
Go to the upper right-hand portion of the page, find the red button labeled, “Ask a Question”, and then post a question regarding your own situation.
