I was at Wal-Mart the other day buying a 5-quart jug of Mobil-1 5W-30 when I noticed that they now had two different 5W-30 products in stock - one had the normal blue cap, and other other had a grey cap. The product description on the back of both containers was different - not sure if it was just...

We're looking for ways to reduce the cost of police services in Ottawa. We use Ford Crown Victorias ("Police Interceptor") for cruisers and are considering smaller more fuel-efficient vehicles. Any suggestions? From watching European films and TV shows I see the police in Britain were driving Ford...

I sometimes enjoy watching a movie, which has been marked VERY badly by some movie critics/reviewers. My friend told me that I should keep checking and comparing the kind of movies that I like to those among the so many movie critics in magazine, newspaper or on TV. When I finally find a match,...

I plan on purchasing a new Lexus with leather seats. It has disturbed me to see so many pre-owned vehicles with leather seats (3-4 years old) with cracks in the leather I keep my cars for atleast 10 years and want to do my best to preserve the leather. There are so many products out there such as...

Hey all, water seeped up through the floorboard of my 2000 Accord during a flood last summer; now I'm having a big problem with an increasingly bad odor. Any suggestions for how to get rid of it (not the car, the odor :)) ? Thanks, Rog

You certainly are entitled to your person opinion, no matter how convoluted it may be. Apparently thousands of us previous owners did not agree with your personal opinion or we would have purchased anther Toyota model. I suggest you take a look at all of the Toyotas one will see in the used car...

Looks like Toyota has surpassed both Chevrolet & Ford for cars sold. Chrysler is now German-owned and smaller than Honda, Toyota, and Nissan in terms of market share. The "Big Three" market share is now only 48%. They totally abondoned cars for light trucks. Only this coming model year-2005- will...

Hi, I have a 99 maxima (65k mile) that I've kept in fairly good condition. Recently I've noticed that while idling (after the engine has warmed up), the steering wheel vibrates slightly. I checked the engine idle speed and it is between 600-700, and according to Hay's repair manual, this is within...

Hi, Is anybody interested in buying a Trabant car? In USA. best regards, Tom

Should I be concerned about buying a 2000 Toyota Camary Solara that spent its first 3 years in Honolulu? I read an old post discussing rust on the rear quarter panels of Camarys in humid or salty climates. If an inspection by a Toyota service technician comes up clean, should that alleviate my...

Why Ssangyong car does not enter the North American market? I saw a website in New Zealand and it has nice looking cars (Chairman sedan, Rexton SUV, Musso Sport pickup truck and Korando Jeep) on sale there. Is Ssanyong marketing their cars in Europe, Middle East, and Africa? I notice that all their...
