Lots of times when I turn the car off I cannot remove the key from the ignition. I have to fiddle with it and keep trying to get it out. I have only had this car this winter and have read some things that point it to a cold weather problem but there was not real solution. My gear shifter also...

Hi all. Own a '95 Honda Rafaga (aka Ascot) 2.0CS, Automatic Transmission, G20A engine. Overal distance on the odometer is over 150K km. The Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATF) has never been changed. Right now the Transmission is starting to overheat, thus I assume that it's about time to change...

About 6 months ago the "Check Engine Light" in my Civic came on for the first time. I reset the ECU (by momentarily pulling the Backup/Hazard fuse) and the light stayed out for at least a couple of months.

I'm shopping for a used Integra, and I've basically narrowed it down to a couple of choices. They're both LS models - a '98 with 72K, and a '96 with '74K. Both in very good condition, both with cloth interior, both on original clutch and timing belt so no advantage there. Here's my dilemma - I...

I'm looking at a '96 Accord EX Coupe. It's exactly the car I'm after, and in solid condition, however... I discovered rust when inspecting the rear undercarriage.

Last week, my 1997 Accord started running very hot. After just a few minutes, the temperature gage fluctuates wildly between about half-way and the red zone. It will usually stay in one place for a minute or two, and then settle on a different setting. Is this a known problem? Does anyone have...

I been approached privately by someone who was told that he could improve his gas mileage by removing the rear driveshafts in his AWD CR-V.
