Hi folks, I have a 1997 Civic EX, and my muffler died. Bought a new one, unbolted the old one and bolted the new one on...piece of cake. But I was still getting noise and then noticed there were holes in the "Pipe B" that has the resonator on it. I bought a new "Pipe B", which also allows you to unbolt the old one and bolt on the new one. But my car has a flex pipe in between the "Pipe A" and the catalytic converter, and everything from the cat, to the flex pipe, to the "Pipe B" is welded together instead of bolted. Grr. So do I either need to 1) learn how to weld?, 2) just bring it somewhere to have them weld on the new "Pipe B"? Attached is a diagram. I guess they didn't even use flex pipes back then because it's not even on here? Thanks. [ATTACH]73735[/ATTACH]

The drivers window on my 2000 Impala fell down the other day when I was driving to work. It won't go up or down with motor but I can pull it up by hand and it will fall back down. It is a power window and doesn't look like it is off the track. I have removed the interior door panel and I am looking to repair it. There don't seem to be any broken parts in the bottom of the door. Can it be the motor that has just failed? What is the most likely thing that I should look for? If it is the motor, can a bad motor allow the window to just freely go up and down by hand? I would like to fix it this weekend if possible. Any help is appreciated. Thanks
