Sounds like it's time to redo all the hardware and get new shoes (brake shoes, not Converse  ;) )

False.  It is worthy of Cavalier rims.

Code 15 - No signal from vehicle speed sensor - CEL on.

Code 17 - Engine cold too long. Either i'm getting this because I don't let my car warm up (I get in and go, and my car isn't warm by the time I get to school) or the balance of antifreeze in my car is wrong. I already redid the thermostat, and I don't have overheating problems.


I may fix this (and the parking brake) then quit while I'm ahead.

"if your facing your engine bay, go to about the top left corner of the engine, basicly where the tranny meets the block. from there, look straight down. you should see a sensor sticking up towards you on the tranny. its probaby camoflaudge (sp) with grease/oil and grime over it. if you cant find it, just look for a wire going to the tranny and follow it. there should be 1, 10mm bolt holding it down, loosen it, then just pull it right out."

Sounds simple enough, but there's probably not much clearance. Sensor is pretty cheap, too.
