Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

12 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 4Original post

groovzilla, here is how my coin holder works. it snaps in with clips toward the passenger side - first picture. next - in the console at the bottom of the opening, toward the shifter is a gear - it is slow to turn and makes the door open slowly. last - the coin holder top has a toothed gear that mates with the gear in the console maybe something got stuck between the holder and the console? i say look carefully, and give it a wiggle. it will probably pop out? good luck

POST 5Original post

IMHO, this is the best way to take care of the issue. I did it and love the result.

POST 6Original post

Funny story about this one. PPI revealed the e-brake dash light wouldn't come on. Dealer quoted $400 to fix. Thank you but no. Also, the PO I bought my car from said "ash tray doesn't work anymore or has a mind of it's own". I figured ok, cheap fix right! Well, after removing the center console/ashtray/etc. I literally found about $20 in mixed change. Tons of quarters stuffed just about everywhere you could imagine. Jackpot! Removed all of the loose change, reinstalled everything. Ash tray worked perfectly, and the e-brake light started to work. LOL. I considered the ash tray delete, will get around to it some day.

POST 10Original post

I grew up doing day trips at Butternut and long weekends/vacations at Stratton. The Berkshires are a straight shot up Rt 7 for me -- 2 hrs door to door. Now, it's time to get both of my kids into it. My daughter is already talking about the upcoming season! -Eric

The White Mtns. are getting snow right now, as much as 18" since last night. Hope the temps stay cool up in ski country.

POST 12 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

i was born in nyc but grew up in westchester ny. when i was about 12 years old my parents bought stock in jiminy peak. jiminy peak owners wanted to expand the ski area and offered a great stock deal for families. the parents skied free for life and kids until 18 yrs old. this would have been 1972 and i remember the purchase price was $2800. i skied almost every weekend taking the 2.5 hr drive on the taconic st parkway. my dad set our trailer in hancock mass and we'd stay the weekends. great old memories. the "post" sisters were twin freestyle competitors that used to train at jiminy. i skied with them several times when i was about 17. i competed in some freestyle events. *if you guys get a chance you have to ski whistler bc...incredible resort with the best snow and absolutely huge bowls/etc....my friend sent me this video shot on his phone after our trip in feb this year. hard to believe i can still move my bones at 53 after 3 knee surgeries: You Tube wm
