Hey all,

Just bought myself a 96 I30 and it needs some minor things taken care of. First off, the brake light on the dash is on constantly (the one that lights up when parking brake is pulled).

Also, the door lock on the driver side is a bit loose. Anybody have any experience taking off or repairing the door handles?

A slight oil leak, mostly apparent on the oil pan. I changed the oil and tightened the oil pan bolts a bit today and haven't checked to see if it's still leaking, but are there any common oil leak locations for this car?

I used to be a Legend owner, but it conked out and this car seems to have everything my previous one was missing. I love it already and want to make sure I do everything I can to keep her running tip top. Any advice is appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Welcome to NICO!!!Glad to have another 3.0L here, I was starting to feel small in the land of 3.5.Brake light, check the switch under the center console, see if it sticks.No experience with doors.Oil leak, check pan gasket, if that's where it's leaking, it's an easy fix.
