I have an 04 plate Corsa & it makes a creaking/groaning noise when people get in & out of it?
This is an interference engine. Need to do a compression test to check for bent valves. The water pump is generally replaced since it is easy to do at the time of belt replacement. Depends on mileage too. I would guess that you are over 100,000 miles at this time. If so, I would do the pump. (costs the same to do the pump as it does to do the belt. If you pay for the belt replacement now and the pump goes out in a week you will pay that much AGAIN to replace the pump!)How do you change a burned out headlight on a 2002 VW New Beetle?
I wish I had a better answer than what I do, but here is whatI do have to say to you, God Bless you for still having a somewhat decent running 95 Neon.
How is STS Tire and Auto Center in Bellmore, NY for having work done on your car?
Myself, and my brother both purchased 95 Neon's at a dealership when they came out, since they often run this promotion where if you purchase two cars at the same time, they give you a really good discount. I have always had a Dodge and my brother had been happy with his previous Dodge. With in less than a year of having his car he had to have it into the dealership for several different things that went wrong with it and eventually they just lemoned his car and he got a new one. I started having problems with my car right about the 11 month mark and it only went down hill from there. Again they lemoned my car and I had to get a new one. I can honestly say that I loved my Neon for the time that I had it, dispite the problems we did have with them.

Since then, we know several people who have purchased newer Neon's and LOVE THEM.
Hi, is your car the 2.0L SOHC engine? Is the eighth digit of the VIN a letter C? This is the most common one for your car and if so, it is an interference engine. If the timing belt has stripped teeth or broken you will need to have the head removed, replace any bent valves and install it again with a new belt. The water pump does not have to be replaced, but it is a good idea to do so at the same time. There is a great deal of overlap to replace it with the t-belt and the likelihood of it lasting another 105K (which is the t-belt service interval) is not very high, and then you would have to pay the labor to remove the timing belt again since it drives the water pump. I would expect a ball park cost, at a top rate shop, to be around $500-$700. Also ask about the warranty on parts and labor. My facility does two years, 24,000 miles on both. You can find a shop like mine on ASE.com. Find an ASE Blue Seal rated facility in your area. This elite certification is given to only 3-4% of all shops in the nation and is the best guarantee you have of getting the best. There are absolutely no requirements for working on cars or owning a facility. No compentency testing, exams, regulations, etc. Kind of scary, isn't it?
