All,
I am on the trail again of using the Element. It's an 06 EX and it has 221K miles on it.
I have one that has turned 16 and is going to be driving around town, so the Element is the best choice for that.
It had not been cranked in nearly 2 years, and after checking the fluid levels, cleaning the air filter etc, and also replacing the battery, it fired up. I took it to the local AutoZone and they told me that the alternator needs replacing. I'm sure they are right.
I searched through the threads and didn't see a tutorial (picture or video) of that, although I did see the serpentine belt change one. Anyone know of such a video?
Sort of a second question is this: Is there anything that I should do besides changing the fluids out to this vehicle to prepare it for use? I've got about two months before school starts and the vehicle goes into daily use...
Thanks all!
