Hey there Haweater i'm not sure but if you're talking
about the dealer in minndamoya {not sure of spelling} i think you have a big problem as if it isn't a tractor or a farm animal they don't have the foggiest ideal as to eaven checking the fluid levels in any vehicle built in the70's 80's-90's-2000's i deal with them on technical issues at times and i have pitty on you people that rely on their inexpetise

Well, it's back and seems to be working. Problem is the damn garage called and my wife went and picked it up without even asking what the hell was wrong!
The bill came out to abot $200 but I think they were lining us up for something else. Had a brake sticking from time to time on one of the rear wheels, told her it needs $800 worth of brake work!
My dear brother (the mechanic in the family) laughed his ass off, it needs new shoes and a bit of a cleaning up for the auto-adjuster (or something like that.)
They also tried to ding us an extra $40 to get some winter tires put on but lost that sale too!

Have to run, will let you all know what we find out if I get talking to the dealer again.

Thanks for all the suggestions.

Either of you guys get to the bottom of your troubles?
Would like to read the end of the story as I will probably be in for the same.

Sorry, got busy and haven't been back to the forum, or the computer with time to spare, for that matter.
I'm afraid I'm not a helluva lot of help to anyone else having the problem. Basically the information I got was that there was a loose wire or connection or something in the area under the battery which needed to be tightened. Not exactly the best $200 I've ever spent (to tighten a wire) but at least it's fixed and it's only 3 figures.
Cheers

PS, 1thunder, no it wasn't Mindemoya. I've heard too many horror stories from people who've taken their vehicles there.
