Buick Lucerne Electrical/Lighting
philip11 Posts: 1I bought a 2008 Lucerne one month ago, and I have the same problem.
GMC is giving me the same BS. The guage is suppose to move around.
I drove a bus for 37 years, and I know what I am talking about.
Its probly the same as the dash not being seen in the sunlight a couple years ago..
They have a defect and doint know or want to fix it. -
rmello Posts: 11I have been fighting with Buick for over 1 year -no results. In Nov I sent a letter to:
Jim Bunnell
General Manager, Buick-Pontiac-GMC
100 Renaissance Center
Mail Code: 482-A29-D76
Detroit, MI 48265-100
I received a call from Detroit just before XMAS, I am waiting for a call back. This will be my last attempt to solve this problem. Next car will not be a Buick.

b88lazer Posts: 21This message updates and corrects information in message #1 of 5 on the above subject. The vehicle in question is a 2007 Buick Lucerne CXS, not a "DTS" as originally cited. I apologize for the inexplicable brain fade and should have corrected this error much sooner.
The fuel sensing and display gripe described in my original post still exists. The fuel tank fuel level sensor has now been replaced twice with no corrective effect. The dealer's service manager subsequently escalated the problem within GM and was advised to run electrical continuity and resistance checks on all wiring and devices in applicable fuel sensing and display circuits. No problems were found. On two occasions, I've had DIC "low fuel" warnings with well over 8 gallons of fuel remaining. I've learned that other Lucerne (and some Cadillac) owners who bought from and have vehicles serviced at this dealership have reported similar fuel gaging inaccuracies that have not been solved. This problem is apparently far more widespread than GM acknowledges and the work-around fix seems to be "fill up often". Inattentive gage watchers should keep comfortable walking shoes in the trunk. -
paradox2 Posts: 8God, would it be that I only had your problem. I wouldn't care if I didn't have a gas gauge at all, if that was my only problem.. What I do have is:
Vibration at highway speeds
Pulls to the right
Transmission noises
Steering noises
Wind noise
Car dead, no electrics (Twice now)
Lower body trim falling off
Trunk release failed
Headliner detached
Loose transmission inspection plate
Transmission leak
Remote mirrors, no memory return
Remote start..works sometime, sometimes not
Heated seats...works sometime, sometimes not
Warped front brake disks
Dash lights too dim
Electrical plug in rear door detached
Engine knocks
Rattle in the 6 CD changer
and of course a crazy fuel gauge.
There is more, but I am getting angry again and am shaking too much to type. This piece of crap will be traded for a Lexus before the warranty is up. I pity the next owner. What a sucker I was. -
rmello Posts: 11Sorry to hear about your many problems, I have read many reports by other Lucerne owners with many of the same problems as yours. Fortunately, my only problems is with the instrument readings. Besides the fuel gauge, the outside temp gauge is always wrong -off as much as 17 degrees-, the tach gives incorrect readings, the instrument cluster is difficult to see in the daytime -especially if wearing sunglasses. As I have stated before, I have contacted Buick many times, even wrote a letter to the President of Buick, no response. This will definately be my last Buick.
rmello Posts: 11I have been driving for over 50 years and this is the first car -and the most expensive I have ever owned- that does not give me accurate readings. For what I paid for this car, I want all my gauges to work properly. What car ever built requires you to drive 10+ miles before the fuel gauge gives an accurate reading? Or, what car ever built -according to Buick- requires you to find a level spot on the road and restart the engine to get an accurate reading before you start a trip?
This to me is pure nonsense. -
imidazol97 Crossroads of America: I70 & I75Posts: 18,639I read your post about fuel gauge readings... I found this in a quick search of the net and it makes sense.
"Fuel gauge: The engine may not start or may stall because the tank is empty yet the gauge shows fuel remaining, or the fuel gauge will not show full after refilling due to sulfur corrosion of the fuel level sender and, if after treating with Fuel System Cleaner PLUS the problem remains, the sender may need to be replaced. (2004-06) "
I recall some gasolines have had trouble with too much sulfur (or not the right additives to handle the sulfur) from a couple years back. That included a name brand in the Louisville area. I have a suggestion.
At Pepboys or Advanced Auto or Meijers or Walmart they sell Techron Fuel System Cleaner additive by Chevron. I think there's even a rebate for all of the purchase price back on the 12 oz bottle that I saw in an ad within the last week. Maybe a company rebate rather than the chain store... Note this is Fuel System Cleaner. There's another version called Injector Cleaner, which I believe to be weaker.
The bottles say it can help protect your fuel gauge from malfunctioning. I would use the 12 oz bottle as directed. Put in with tank almost empty at the gas pump. Put in up to 12 gallons or 20 gallons of fuel. Then drive without adding fuel until almost empty. It may clean the corrosion off the contacts that rub for the fuel gauge to give the reading on fuel level. You might use it a second time. But don't use it continuously. I use it one or two times a year in my leSabres. It always makes the engine seem better after a few miles when I put it in. I don't believe in additives but this one was recommended years ago by BMW and then others to clean injectors and deposits before gasolines additives were improved. It's the additive blends Chevron/Texaco put in their fuels. -
rmello Posts: 11What you are describing is not my problem. My fuel gauge problems started from day one when I purchased the car new (Aug 2006). I have had several contacts with other Lucerne owners experiencing the same problem as I. This problem is occurring in the 2007 and 2008 models. As for LeSabres, I have owned two, a 1989 and a 2002 both purchased new and never had any problems with the fuel gauge -always giving me correct readings. As I stated before, I have been driving for over 50 years and never had any problems with fuel gauges on any car I have owned. This is a Buick screw up.
rjwelsh Posts: 4Since I took delivery of my new Buick Lucerne CXL the gas gauge has never read properly. It either reads right or a quarter tank less than what is in the tank. GM has checked all the wiring, dropped the gas tank? and replaced the sending unit as well as the computer upgrades. Nothing they have done has fixed the problem. If anyone hears of a fix please advise. Thanks Bob
rmello Posts: 11If you are not having a problem with your fuel gauge, you are fortunate. Owners of 2007 and 2008 Lucerne's are experienicing the same problem as me. Again, according to Buick, this is their design and may take up to ten miles of driving for the fuel gauge to correct itself. They are right as I have tested this several times.
Not sure why yours work correctly and mine doesn't. -
rmello Posts: 11Buick has a fix for the darkness of the instrument cluster, I had it done on my 2006 Lucerne. They completely replace the instrument cluster with a cluster that has bigger and brighter numbers. The cluster still does not light up during daytime but, the bigger cluster is definately easier to see. It takes about 1 hr to make the change.
Hope this helps.

b88lazer Posts: 21I appreciate the offer, Bob, but can't think of a way to enable your suggestion unless one or both of us puts an email address, phone number or postal address in a post available to any casual reader. One option is to contact a dealer with the numbers you kindly provided and hope the dealer will make the info available. Perhaps the forum host has a thought?
imidazol97 Crossroads of America: I70 & I75Posts: 18,639You can send each other info on your carspace page. At the top of the page is a header with black print "My Carspace." Send an email from the carspace page (email is on the right) to the other user with their address as email@example.com. You can decide how to communicate from there if that's not sufficient!
Or you can join a junk email group like yahoo and then give that email in the comments area on your Forum Profile. Anyone else can see your profile by clicking on our user name on any post!
Another method is scan the document, post it on photobucket.com (free account there) and then post here the link to the document there. Anyone reading here could click and read the document just like people post their car pictures for here on Edmunds.
Or you can scan it and post in your pictures area on your MyCarspace. -

imidazol97 Crossroads of America: I70 & I75Posts: 18,639>I would be glad to. How can we accomplish this thru this forum??
You can scan or take a photograph with a digital camera to get a digital picture of the papers. Then you can post them as an image or a link to the image in your post. One way is to upload the digital images to your carspace account into your photographs. Another is to upload to photobucket (free) or an equivalent hosting service that stores your digital images and lets you link to them.
By posting a link in the post, someone reading your post later can go to that link and see them in your photobucket account (or carspace account),.
A problem with carspace pictures is there is a graphic advertising carspace that's on the bottom corner.
I use photobucket most of the time. -

Toyota Tundra Shocks and Suspension
Posts: 1
in Toyota
Needed some help with rear squat. I have a 2005 TRD 4wd StepSide V8 - Titanium Silver Ext Cab. We just upgraded our boat to a 5500 pound beast and the tongue weight is a little too heavy for me. Causes too much squat.
So I have been looking for some air shocks, in order to beef up the rear tongue capacities a little, but I have run into a brick wall. I need some air shocks or heftier springs or something.
The GCWR and everything is met OK and the truck pulls just fine. We have pulled the boat ~400 miles since we got it and have had no problems.
Any advice would be appreciated.

wanderer12 Posts: 4I have a 2003 TRD 4wd StepSide V8 with the towing package and I had the same "squat" problem with mine. I installed a set of Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper springs this past April immediately before going on a 7,000 mile camping trip and couldn't be happier. They weren't difficult to install and I opted to direct the system to a single valve rather than two separate ones. While I never had a control problem before I installed these the ride seems to be better, albeit slightly stiffer, even without any load or weight on the tongue and they are adjustable to accomodate any load. Check them out on www.ride-rite.com. I ordered mine from www.suspensionconnection.com for about $250 including the Union Tee Connection to direct the tubing to a single valve. Model # 2245T fits 2000-06 Tundra 4wd. I hope this helps.
scfarmerjack Posts: 3Hey, I have seen a few wheel vibration stories on here. I had my brakes replaced a few months ago, and progressively had more and more vibration, accompanied by more and more noise from said vibration. It is annoying at any speed 0-85 MPH and is TERRIBLE at higher speeds, and more specifically around corners/turns.
I would think it is wheel bearings, but I get no shake from the disc with the tire off. I am at a loss. I took it back to the mechanic in S.C. who did the work, and he told me he found out that the front tires should be lower in pressure than the stated pressure from the tire manufacturer. He was giving me the slip because he knew I was leaving to head back to Canada. Told me that it would 'wear out' after a couple hundred miles. I knew better, but didn't have time for an exhibition.
Please let me know if anyone else has experienced this.
Oh, it is a 2000 4X4/V8-SR5. -
averagecarguy Posts: 11If you live where the freeways are made of concrete, be aware of the extremely poor ride quality of the '07 Tundra on old, worn concrete freeways. It truly rides like a buckboard.
As long as the freeway is new, or decent asphalt, ride quality is good, but at typical freeway speeds, it is verging on unacceptable on old concrete. -
bugchucker Posts: 118

davebaum Posts: 2I believe, the truck is designed in size and weight as a half ton pickup. Toyota wants to be competitive in the truck market place, so they claim the load capacity is 1500lbs instead of the 1000lb capacity of a half ton truck. In order to do this, they have made the suspension stiff enough for the three quarter ton capacity which normally has a longer bed and is a heavier vehicle. It's trying to make a silk purse out of a sows ear. The dealer told me that the reason for the ride on my truck being so stiff, is because it's the off road model. This type of suspension is totally contrary to off road suspension where you need to suck up the bumps and not make the truck air born because it's too light for the suspension system.
crosbo78 Posts: 2I have to agree with Bob, put a load on the 07 tundra and you'll see the difference. If you bought the truck and give it no action (towing), then you should have been in the market for a Honda Ridgeline.....Yes i admit there is some bumping but its not anything I cant handle and its not uncomfortable. I think the 0-85mph feeling the bump is a little over stretching it. Just get in a f-250 on an empty load and youll also see that its common on all heavy towing trucks.. and of course im not directly comparing the tow cap. of the f-250 to the tundra cuz it just would not happen. If your in the market for a smooth ride go for the new dodge. There no leaf springs on that baby and it should be what your looking for if you dont like the bump feeling...but then again who knows how long youll be driving on the road with that truck....

akadannyboy Posts: 1I've an '02 Tundra, and after 7 years, I'm still impressed with the ride and the power. I'm now ready to trade for the bigger V-8,but I'm 60 years old and if I have to CLIMB UP IN THE BED OF THE TRUCK to reach my tools, that truck is worthless to me. Toyota has fallen into Detroit's ignorant [non-permissible content removed] habit of "mine is bigger than yours". If I want a toyota I can reach as far as the middle of the bed, my only option is the tacoma,but I'm done with little cabs. I guess I'll have to wait for toyota to retool the tundra. I really don't care whether "yours" is bigger than "mine", I just want something I can work with, and best I can tell, the '03 tundra is the last year they made a sensible work truck(unless you're 6' 8" tall).My original reason for entering this forum was to ask what is the best replacement shock for these older Tundras?
tymtotrn Posts: 10hey, i have a 2008 5.7 2WD crewmax that has TRD. I have 37,000 miles. Lately, I have front end clunking noise only when you turn the wheel all the way to the left or right(as if you were making a tight u-turn). I can hear the noise, and I also can feel a popping sort of grinding which travels through the steering column and into the steering wheel. It sorta sounds like worn out CV-joints. The truck seems to wander from side to side when I drive over pot holes or a rough street. I think it's the ball joints. Anyone out there having this problem. Taking it into dealership soon.

Well, after more than 12 years with Dish, I am being forced to leave. DSL through ATT is going from $20/month up to $40/month; so to keep the cost of TV & Internet below $100, it looks like I will be forced to get U-Verse.
Kind of messed-up: ATT is raising their prices for DSL, so I get to reward them by switching TV & Internet to them. What a horrible company - oh well, price is king.
I'll miss Dish - excellent customer service, great pricing, and a lot of excellent receivers over the years, including the 721 with keyboard (my favorite, I think). We'll see what happens in a year when my U-Verse contract runs out.
U-verse is BAD unless you're close to a VAR. I just pay $29.00 for Uverse. It's not DSL.

At 21, she is the youngest alderman to be elected in Boyle and Mississippi.
"It feels wonderful," said Tenisha. "I actually love it and want to get in and make a change."
Her goal is to get a recreation center opened in Boyle to help bring the community together and get out of the heat in the summers.
"I would like to thank everyone from Ward Five for all of the support they have given me," said Tenisha.
Tenisha Rogers was elected to the alderman position that her mother, Azalean Rogers, had previously held.
Azalean had to give up her position after it was revealed, through a background check, that she had been convicted of a felony.
The background check was ordered by the Boyle Election Commissioners, after they noticed that she had not properly filled out her paper work, although Azalean said she thought she had, for the election process.
Although the conviction was 34 years ago, according to procedure she would have to be pardoned by the governor or her record would have to be expunged to be able to hold public office.
Azalean said she thought that her record had been expunged years ago after she went back to school.
According to her, her probation officer informed said her probation would be terminated and the charges were dismissed.
However, the Circuit Court of Bolivar County found that Azalean's evidence that her charges had been dismissed was "rank hearsay," according to a court order.
The court also found that she could not be removed from her office but that her name would no longer be permitted on the ballots for the upcoming election.
Azalean had served as alderman for Ward Five in Boyle for five years.
She said she believes that the background check and discovery of the felony conviction was "an act of revenge" for her accusations she has made concerning the abuse of some black teens.
"I've been a notary public for the past 12 years and you know they had to do a background check on me," said Azalean. "This just came up out of the blue sky."
According to the National Notary Association, one of the requirements for becoming a notary public in Mississippi is a candidate must have "no lifetime felony conviction unless pardoned by Governor or had voting rights restored by state Legislature."
Azalean said she is now in the process of making sure her record is expunged.
"I'm glad it came out," said Azalean. "I do want to run for an elected position again in the future."

Ian Emsley participated in the IAEA expert group convened to formulate high and low projections for global nuclear capacity to 2050. The group met in Vienna between 22-27th April and the work will be published in August. The global projections reflect those generated for individual countries which are based principally on reactors that are planned or under construction and reactors that are expected to be retired in the period to 2030. Projections for 2030-2050 are based on expected electricity requirements, stated government objectives, past performance and technical capacity. The apparent consequences of Fukushima have been incorporated into the projections but the full consequences will not be known for many years.

Most of you probably know that I love closers. They are players who work under extreme pressure and throw upwards of 100 mph. They are the one and only on their team. They are glorified and vilified in the same week. They are generally the weirdest off the field, as well. What's not to love?
So here's my question: why is there no award for closers? We have the Cy Young Award (for starting pitchers), Silver Slugger (for hitters), Golden Glove (for fielders), various awards for relievers… but nothing for closers. (Incidentally- why are the sluggers silver and the gloves gold?) Is that offensive or what? (If you know of an award and I am incorrect, please do tell me.)
Here's my proposal: The Diamond Girl Award. It would be an annual award to honor the best closer in the game- one in the AL, one in the NL. It could be voted on, the same way as the Cy Young award or maybe it would be fan-voted, like the All-Stars. We can work out the details later.
The big difference between this award and others in baseball is that the announcement would be much more exciting. In every other industry there's a ceremony with an, "And the ______ goes to…" so why don't we have that in baseball? I can just picture it. We'd have, say, 10 nominees from each league and it there would be tons of suspense. It would be nationally televised and the ratings would be huge. And I would get to present the awards. At least for the first year.
So who would you nominate to get the award this year? The first commenter to guess who I would give it to wins a virtual hug.
Diamond Girl

Where to Get Parts for Old Cars?
I notice that JC Whitney has discontinued their stock of old car parts. You used to be able to get all kinds of parts from them (for impossibly old cars-like cars from the 1930's). My question: is anyone making these parts anymore? Or is the collector at the mercy of vanishing stocks of OEM parts. It used to be that brake and engine parts for 1920-30's cars were easily available-is this true anymore?
Mr_Shiftright CaliforniaPosts: 46,212Your first stop is the newsstand to get a copy of Hemmings Motor News. From there, you can make calls or send e-mails to listed vendors, who can then spin you off to other spare parts universes.
Have faith, you can get just about any part for any car, and the parts you can't get, you can have made. Of course, if it's some obscure car from the 20s, you aren't going to find much, but many of these older cars were "assembled" from standard parts, and substitutions are possible.
The best aftermarkets are for Ford Model As and Ts, for Chevy/Ford/GMC post WWII pickups, for VW, for GM muscle cars, for MG and for Alfa Romeo. There's very little you can't find for these types of cars, shipped right to your door UPS second day.MODERATOR --Need help with anything? Click on my name!

hotrodguy Posts: 2So I know the time and trouble one can go thru finding parts these days. From experience if your determined you will find the part you need. For example I must have called 15 vendors/companies looking for the exact parts i wanted for my '34 Ford. So 2 sites that have helped me out on builds is 1)
Vintage Parts, these guys have solid axle kits for '28-'48 Fords and much much more. Then for more of the hot rod items I recently stumbled across this site, 2) Street Rod Parts. The quality of the product I would say is around a B+. Welds on the axle kit look rough but overall and for the price, definitely worth it. -
oldbearcat WVPosts: 184I own a 1948 Chevrolet Fleetmaster Town Sedan which is stock. I've had it going on 3 years now. Finding parts for her has been an adventure, but, I've been lucky so far. There's a lot of stuff now being reproduced, and, I've found a lot of used/NOS stuff locally. When I got her, I joined a couple of the active antique Chevy forums, and, the folks there are really good with advice/sources for parts. She gets a lot of attention at shows/cruise-ins because she's got her original big long in-line 6 under the hood instead of a SBC like everybody else. I like the well done hot rods, but, love my stock fat fender car.

1969buick1 Posts: 11969 buick lesabre 350(buick) 3 speed 2 door . And I have been looking for so many parts to restore the car but I always come up dry. I called everybody looked on the Internet for days and just can't find anything it's like the car doesn't exist. So if anybody can help me out with where to look for parts I would appreciate it. Please haha
oldbearcat WVPosts: 184What I did with my car initially - was to hit some local car shows and cruise-ins. Being a newbie, I asked a lot of questions, but, I found a number of local folks and wrecking yards that had stuff I needed. I joined a couple of antique Chevy forums, and, scored some parts from posters that I needed and couldn't find locally or from repop outfits. The AACA Buick forums would be a good place for you to start. The folks there should be able to guide you to parts sources. If there are some antique Buick specific forums join them as well, and, post your questions and parts needs. I've also scored several things for my car off Ebay as well - so you might periodically check there for parts as well. Good luck and good hunting.

Everything was great with the order and I am extremely pleased with my purchase and with the product, if the need arises that I need to purchase another appliance your company is the one I will look at. The Rowenta steam iron met and exceded my expectations. Thanks for your attention to detail.
John, Indiana
Everything was well done. Thank you
Geralyn, Michigan
By far best iron I've ever owned. Owned another brand steam-generator iron and this is far superior. Usually one pass on the garment is enough to make it wrinkle-free. Well worth the money! Allbrands price was great and speedy delivery. I've used the iron a week or two (heavy usage) and think it's the greatest. No need to take dress shirts to the dry cleaner when they're this easy to iron and look professionally done. Iron will pay for itself in no time! If you are one the fence about this purchase ... take the plunge.
Judy, Louisiana
I was very amazed to receive my product in a very fast timely manner. Thank you
Esther, New Jersey
5th time ordering from AllBrands - all satisfactory.
Patricia, Virginia
I have purchased with this store before, and I am very satisfied and will continue to shop with them in the future.
Carol, California
Very Happy with my purchase.
Cheryl, California
Great shipping time - especially for FREE! Thanks!
Robert, California
it would have been noce to see some real pitures of the product....but honestly, your the best company I have ever dealt with... keep it up and put walmart out of business
Monica, Texas
I did comparison shopping regarding the Steamer. I found one or two sites that were a few dollars less but your "no shipping charges" clause more than made up for the difference. I was pleasantly surprised to receive the steamer the next day. Will definitely keep you on my list for future purchases and have already referred you to several friends.
Linda, Michigan
As for the design of this generator, which is the responsibility of the Rowenta company, filling the tank is designed very poorly, it would be much better to have a water level window and I have yet to find the Red Ball to indicate the fullness of the tank. Thankyou
Jo, North Carolina
I have never been disappointed with any product or service you provide. I shopped around for hours on the web, and local stores, but your price beat them all. Thanks for the service you offer us in these hard economic times.
Cheryl, Arizona
I haven't used the iron yet, but everything that I read in the product reviews about your company has been true so far! Your quick service and your easy ordering process has exceeded my expectations. Thank you!
Tariq, New York
Good price and service.
Roberta, Georgia
So far I'm very happy with my purchase.
Jane, North Carolina
I couldn't have asked for better service. I am an avid quilter and have been so satisfied with my Rowenta Steam Generator Pressure Iron & Steamer (also purchased through AllBrands on Ebay), that I ordered the above Rowenta for my daughter as a Christmas surprise. She will be so delighted because she is an avid quilter too.
William, Michigan
Great cutomer service. Will gladly recomend your company.
Judy, Louisiana
I am satisfied with the performance of the iron. I suggesst that the next model that is developed should have a clear plastic tank. I feel that this one is a little dangerous when you are filling the tank with the pressure buildup in the tank. I am sure I will get used to it. Thank you, Judy
Sue, Missouri
Phillip, Florida
A great experience. I will definitely shop with you again!
Julia, Illinois
I found the item I was looking for on another site for less and Allbrands matched the price. I was impressed with the quick response.
Karen, Citrus Springs FL
I am very satisified with my steam iron purchase. I have only used it 3-4 times but it seems like a very good product for me. It really puts nice creases in pants and when jeans can hold the crease means it is especially good.
Robert, Georgia
Outstanding product!!!!!
Alice, Kentucky
I have dealt with your company before & have always been very satisfied.
Teresa, Kearney, NE
I am very pleased with this iron. Your service and delivery were above my expectations.

Dawn B, Seattle, WA
Allbrands was recommended to me; I in turn recommend Allbrands to all my friends.
Christine W, Newport News VA
Loved how fast it got here and the fact there was free shipping. Will order from your company in the future. Thank you.

I ordered a Rowenta steam generating iron for you, it stopped working a few weeks ago, I called your company and the response was speedy, you answered in a flash, and i just received a check for the cost of the old Iron, i also just received my new Rowenta Steanm generating iron from your company within a week of ordering. Thank you very much. You do an excellent job, i would not hesitate to order from your company and i would gladly recommend your company to my friends. Thank you again.
Debbie L, San Antonio TX
I'm thrilled with the iron...it is the best I've ever had!
Norma M, Union City CA

The order was missing the soleplate cleaner, I called and it was sent right away. Very nice to get such quick attention to a problem. Thanks
Barbara B, Williamsburg VA
I have always been highly satisified with your service....thanks....I love my iron!!
Bonnie G, Grass Valley CA
I am very pleased with the generator pressure iron that I bought from you. I have a home based sewing business and have had a Prince Vapor ironing system for about 15 years and the generator rusted out on me; the company no longer has that system. I was leary of how your iron would work with what I had. But it is just great!!! The cords are long enough to use and the generator fits in the alcove where the other product was located. I needed it as soon as possible,it was delived much faster than expected. I belong to two sewing organizations and I will definitely recommend your company.
Martha C, West Columbia SC
I had priced the Rowenta Iron in town for $250 plus tax and decided to check some on line vendors and see what the price was there. The price at all Brands was $160 but decided to wait. When the e-mail came and the price was reduced and there was no tax of shipping I decided I had a bargin Mcobb
Donna T, Alexandria VA
Excellent service!! I received the Rowenta steam generator iron exactly when estimated. I am not sure, however, what the other item is as i do not recall ordering it nor have received it. I assume it is a warranty associated with the Rowenta iron. I was so pleased with my experience in purchasing the iron that i refered your company to a co-worker (Christine B), who has ordered the same product from your site.
Deborah C, New York
I was very impressed with all your service and decided to order the Ironing board from you as well.I will continue to check your company when I am purchasing and researching an appliance.
Syd F, CA
A very nice shopping experience. And the equiptment is as good as advertised. We will come back to the site again.
Janet F, IL
I love my Rowenta Pressure and Steamer Iron. Thanks for the speedy delivery. It arrived in great condition. Thanks
Pam M, Sarasota FLA
This is our second purchase from your company and am satisfied enough to say it won't be our last. Thank you for doing what you say you will do when you say you will do it. It really is that simple! Sincerely, Pam
Pamela D, Camarillo CA
I have purchased a couple of items from you in the past.. and have been pleased with both, so I will return in the future. thank you
Anna S, Hahnville LA
Your company always exceed my expectation with every order I have place.
Janet F, Park Ridge IL
I love my Rowenta Pressure and Steamer Iron. Thanks for the speedy delivery. It arrived in great condition. Thanks
Sue K, Rowenta
The DG5030 water tank holds 33 ounces of water. Rowenta recommends that consumers empty the tank after each use, so if they are filling it from empty each time, they can just measure out the same amount each time or 33 ounces. Otherwise, you can look in from the filling hole to see how much water is in the tank.
Dora W, Tallahassee FL
It was a very quick delivery, the iron irons very light and well, much better than an average steam iron. The iron is not heavy! So ironing is almost fun... The complete steamgenerator fits on my ironboard.
Maryann A., Coatesville PA
This iron is fantastic, I love it and it is far superior than the old hand held Rowenta iron and the previous brand I owned. The price was the best I found after researching for an iron. Kudos.
Cambria A., Shelley ID
I had a wonderful experience ordering through AllBrands . My Rowenta iron arrived within a few days. Great service! I will use AllBrands again in the future! Thanks!

Dr. Volgman discusses the number one killer of women – heart disease.
Having a safe haven for women with heart disease was a major impetus for creating the Rush Heart Center for Women. Women with potential heart disease need a place where they can feel they're really listened to and taken seriously.
In 12 years of practicing cardiology before opening theRush Heart Center for Women, the message I heard from my patients was their doctors didn't listen to them. Some women who came to Rush felt the doctors made a conclusion about what was wrong with them the minute they walked through the door. They were diagnosed, not with a problem with their hearts, but rather with a problem in their heads.
Many women were told not to worry about their hearts since the problem was most likely just stress or anxiety. In my practice, 95 percent of these women turned out to have heart conditions, which were often missed by the previous doctors. It's no wonder there have been more women than men dying from heart disease since 1984.
Besides my husband and two children, my passion is taking care of people as a cardiologist. I've been a cardiologist for 22 years. I've taken care of some famous patients, including Oprah Winfrey, Chicago Bulls players, Chicago White Sox players, news anchors, presidents of companies and also many grandmothers, mothers, wives and sisters of people like you and me. I've taken care of many women who weren't treated well by their previous cardiologists simply because they were women.
I've taken care of young women who were found to have heart tumors during her third trimester of pregnancy, women with worsening condition of her congenital heart disease during pregnancy and women who developed heart failure from the pregnancy. And I'm proud to say, with careful monitoring, all these women have become mothers of healthy babies and are doing quite well.
I've taken care of 90-year-old men and women who've graciously thanked me and given me permission to allow them to live with dignity. An elegant, 96-year-old patient of mine celebrated a birthday party given by her 70-year-old son at our hospital dining room, inviting all of her doctors and nurses. It was one of the most enjoyable birthday parties I've had at work. When I told her that we could implant a defibrillator to prevent her sudden cardiac death, she said she appreciated my offer and concern, but that she was fine with leaving this world without being shocked multiple times. She passed away with dignity a few months after that birthday party.
There are hundreds of women that come to the Rush Heart Center for Women and ask me to help them deal with their risks. Some have required gastric bypass surgery as a last resort to deal with their weight problems. Most just needed to be told they have to be more active and eat a healthier diet. Some have required angioplasties, stents, open-heart surgeries, catheter ablations, pacemakers and defibrillators. But all of them just needed to know their doctor was helping them get healthier and live a better quality of life. They just needed someone who cared for them.

2006 malibu Maxx Problem
When I am driving down the road at at least 60 km/h and I let off on the accelerator my rpms will fluctuate up and down. It almost feels like the transmission is kicking in and out. Can anybody help me?
glennb Posts: 34Interesting. I have an '04 Malibu with a similar problem. I first noticed it while driving in town; the trans appears to "slip" after letting off the gas and then re-accelerating. Now I have noticed this happening at all speeds in town and on the highway. It almost seems to shift into OD too quickly as well. The dealer could not ID the problem and called it a "flair". 64,000 miles; is this I can expect from my Maxx?
glennb Posts: 34I had the dealer do the trans service at 50k. My first thought when this problem cropped up was that the dealer didn't put enough tranny fluid back in. I'll never know.
I complained to my service advisor and mentioned another call to Chevy (that's what it took to get my steering fixed) and he said I should get the shifter fixed first, which currently will not cycle through the gears when in L(ow). He said it might be related, but can't guarantee it. $400 fix. He also told me an investigative tranny tear down would be about $2k. This is bugging me as I go on vacation next week, and had been mulling a drive to DC to visit my son. Not sure I want to risk it. It is going to an independent garage for the first brake job this week; maybe I'll see if they can shed some light on what is going on.
pao, a familiar login name from way back in '04. I thought we had a lot of miles on our Maxx! -
glennb Posts: 34I would say my trans problem was less of a out and out fluctuation, and more like the trans was slipping into neutral when I let off the gas, and then the engine would rev as I tried to re-accelerate. It would then eventually drop back into gear, which was very noticeable. Does your +,- toggle work on your shifter? Or is it malfunctioning like mine was? That seems to be the common component that Chevy doesn't have much history on (or my dealer's service manager was just lying to me!)
aday1025 Posts: 1I was driving home the other evening when my traction control indicator with the line through it went off, the check engine light came on and a dic message appeared saying eng pwr reduced. This is an 06 malibu maxx. The engine seemed to slow also and I had a very hard time getting up past 30 mph. Anyone else had this problem. If so what was the fix? Thanks in advance.

murphyc Posts: 8aday--Don't know if you fixed your problem yet or not, but I've now had it happen twice on my '05 Maxx. First time re-screwing the gas cap seemed to fix it. Couple of weeks ago it wasn't that simple. Took it to a shop with codes in hand thanks to Auto Zone. Turns out the car was spitting other codes, related to a TSB I can't recall right off hand. Shop said I had a replacement windshield, and when that windshield was installed job wasn't done right. Windshield molding had gaps and had to be replaced because water was getting in, causing wiring to short out. Molding was replaced and problem gone on test drives, but when I picked car up the same three original problems were back. They kept car overnight, pointing multiple fans at the area in question. That was almost two weeks ago, no problems since. Just have to keep floor vent on since carpet behind mats evidently got damp over time.
For what it's worth, two codes from Augo Zone both pointed to possible wiring and/or Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor issues. -
shadow5599 Posts: 101I am having the same problem. In city driving at city speeds if I completely let off the gas and then back on, no matter how lightly, it seems to downshift for a second and you can see the tach jump up, then back to normal. Also today I noticed my manual up down when in low does not work right and the display always says 3. All else seems normal.
If you have any info on the shift control switch that was replaced and how it's done I'd appreciate it! What I'm wondering if a do it your selfer like me can do it and find some directions on how to. -
shadow5599 Posts: 101I decided to take a look so I pulled out the centre console by removing 6 screws.
2 up front on either side, 2 at the back on either side and 2 under the cup holder. Once it's loose and out a bit there is a harness to the lighter and traction control switch that has a plug. With the console out it stares you right in the face, a broken yellow wire. There is a pink and a yellow wire going across the bottom and drivers side of the shifter that go up the shifter shaft to the switch. There was no hunting for an internal break in the wire, it was completely broken, insulation and all, just like it had been cut. I cut the pink wire too and spliced in an additional 2 inches on each by soldering and wrapping them. Put it all back together and everything now works as normal. No weird shifting problems and the +/- button works again. All in all it took about an hour and was quite easy. But without this forum it wouldnt have been near as easy! -

Will Hooker, Bolivar County administrator and guest of the committee, discussed the results of getting in touch with the owner of the D & L Building in order to get the building and surrounding land cleaned up.
"The committee brought us up to speed with some concerns of this being a public nuisance. I was asked to inform the supervisors," said Hooker.
Upon informing the board of supervisors, the board made a unanimous decision to contact the Mississippi State Department of Health to evaluate the site from a neutral point of view.
"They have visited the site and I know pictures have been taken. The next step is to contact the owner once the evaluation is done," said Hooker.
The committee then moved to the discussion of controlling the mosquito population with Bill Alexander and Bern Prewitt, coordinators of the mosquito program.
"We're diligently spraying," said Prewitt.
The committee discussed not running the trucks on Sunday and having flown twice this year when populations rose.
"We run six nights a week, with three or four trucks," explained Alexander.
Alexander discussed that closed in carports are an ideal habitat for mosquitoes because it is cool and the sprays can't get in.
"All they (residents) have to do is let us know," said Alexander about spraying around the community in particular areas.
When the reports of West Nile cases were discussed, Alexander and Prewitt said they would continue to spray and welcome any residents to contact Advanced Mosquito Control about particular problem areas.
The committee then discussed removing limbs and trash from streets.
"The city is looking good," said Ray Bell, director of Cleveland Public Works.
"We take care of everything now but household trash," said Bell.
Bell explained that there are specific routes that are run throughout the city each day in order to clean up each area.
"We try to get everyone serviced," said Bell.
Bell explained that if there is a limb that poses a safety threat, residents should call Public Works to have those limbs removed.
Each call will be documented and the rubbish cleaned up within a week.
The committee also discussed trees that were being butchered by electric companies, causing a community eyesore.
Bell mentioned that there was an attempt to have legislature pass a law that no tree back be planted on the same side of the street as power lines, in hopes that this will no long be a problem.
To make any requests about problem areas involving mosquitoes call Advanced Mosquito Control at (662) 843-6161 and for reports of rubbish call Cleveland Public Works at (662) 843-5365.

MADISONVILLE, Ky. (3/11/14) — After a two-year investigation into the dealings of a Madisonville man, multiple agencies made an arrest in a case that represents as much as $1.3 million in illegal drugs.
According to a Madisonville Police Department report, detectives from MPD, Drug Enforcement Administration officers from Louisville, Madisonville and Evansville, Ind., the United State Postal Service and the Evansville/Vanderburg County Drug Task Force have been conducting an investigation into Eric Melton, 42.
The report states that intelligence gathered during the investigation reveals that Melton and his criminal associates alledgely have distributed drugs successfully through western Kentucky especially Hopkins County.
During a one-year period, it is estimated that Melton was responsible for distributing at least 30 pounds of methamphetamine at an estimated street value of $1.3 million, the report said.
During the investigation, the MPD Vice/Narcotics Unit and other agencies seized approximately 13 pounds of meth from Melton and his associates.
The report stated that if the meth was sold by the typical gram amount, the street value would be $590,200; sold by the pound, the street value would be $353,600.
Those amounts are calculated on pure methamphetamine prices. It is common for methamphetamine to be "cut" with some type of filler or agent so that the quantity is doubled for selling purposes.
The street value of the narcotics prevented from being sold on the street is between $707,200 and $1,180,400, the report stated.
Officers from MPD, DEA, Kentucky State Police, Evansville/VanderburgDrug Task Force and the Internal Revenue Service executed three search warrants Feb. 27 at three residences Melton had been known to either live at or frequent in Hopkins County.
During the search warrant execution, approximately $38,000 in currency, three vehicles including a 2001 Corvette convertible and numerous items consistent with narcotics trafficking were located and seized.
According to MPD, the investigation and arrest were successful due to the teamwork and relationship of the agencies involved.
Melton was identified as a top supplier of meth to the area, and has been taken into custody pending state and federal narcotics trafficking charges, the report said.
MPD reports that more arrests are possible.SurfKY News

The NHL resumed and my first free play of the second half was a winner on these very Detroit Red Wings, they'd hold on for dear life in a 5-4 victory over the Panthers. But now the Wings face an entirely different animal in the Lightning, a team which entered the second half with a lead in the Eastern Conference, but which came out flat in its 4-2 loss to Carolina on Tuesday (I had the OVER in that one as one of my "official" selections); suffice it to say, I expect the home side to come in extremely focused this evening and for this determination to pay dividends for us at the end of the night. The Wings are down to their backup goaltender, Peter Mrazek is 5-0-0 over his six starts, but after posting a 1.63 GAA in his first three, the 22-year old has given up 11 goals with a 4.76 GAA in three games since. Here's the perfect opponent to get untracked against, the Wings defensive slide is about to catch up to them here and it's not like Tampa Bay will be intimidated whatsoever, it's actually gunning for a franchise-best ninth consecutive home victory. And despite the setback at Carolina, note that the Bolts are still averaging a league-high 3.18 GPG. Also note, while the Wings have dominated the Lightning historically, winning 26 times in 38 all-time meetings between the clubs, Tampa has in fact taken five of the last six in the series, including two straight in front of the home town crowd. A pretty fair line in my estimation, I definitely think that the LIGHTNING are worth the price of admission in this spot. How about you, does Tampa Bay lay the hammer down, or do the Wings continue to surge?
