I just replaced the rotors and brake pads. Now I am hearing a scraping noise when I brake. What is causing that?michaelaa - 2002 Mercury Cougar - Brakes - 3/1/2013It has only been two weeks since the rotors and pads were replaced.-
3/1/2013 HouseCallAutoMaybe the tin splash shield by the rotor is rubbing slightly. The answer is that you have to look by jacking up and removing each tire and look for rub markes on the rotor maybe, look at anything that looks too close to the rotor.

2/14/2013 HouseCallAutoYou likely have a pinhole in a steel brake line that runs down the floorpan of the car from excessive rust on these lines and now one popped a pinhole. These lines can be repaired. Are you mechanical? Do you want to DIY? First find the leak. You have to get a look under the car but if you do not have suitable jacks and / or ramps then a repair shop will get the job.
2/15/2013 ziggydrlthank you i will try if not i will call , i am have somewhat of knowledge of the car.

How do i replace a headlight bulbmellissalutrick - 2005 Mercury Montego - Brakes - 12/2/2012i can not figure out how to take off the head light to replace the bulb.-
12/2/2012 JimmTypically, the headlight socket will simply unscrew (turn slightly) to remove the socket itself with the bulb - from the rear of the headlight housing. You should not have to remove the headlight itself.
Try the 'How-To-Guides' feature on the AutoMD website for the specific steps to replace the headlight bulb.
