As stated looking for an old style battery that I can maintain and keep working for more than a couple years... tired of the cold killing my batteries.. If there are better options let me know pls.

So I have a 2008 Ford mustang GT V8 So the problem started when someone changed my battery out. I can't remember who did. Yet anyways they didn't bolt it down. The battery touched the firewall and it started causing like an electrical surge Everytime I would hit a bump. So anyways I finally figured it out that the battery was hitting the firewall. I fixed that problem, yet it left me with another one. My a.c condenser and one of my cylinders are misfiring. I figured since it was throwing the code of missing I changed out those parts. The coil the spark plug. It still does it. It will work fine and then start acting up again. Then drive fine then act up again.. my a.c condenser and the same cylinder keeps missing. So I'm guess the issue is in my wire harness hopefully not computer. Any advice anyone can give me. I'm not really a mechanic. Just a mediocre parts changer. I don't know much about electrical.

Got my car inspected yesterday and the tech put the correct mileage down on the state form (34,748) but the knucklehead cashier put 80,000(!!!!!) and I got an update from Car Fax today saying all these services were overdue and that my actual mileage was 80k. HELP!! Carfax doesn't have a help number, I submitted the form and took pics of both receipts. I am open to any suggestions. I was about to sell my car but obviously can't with the mileage issue.

Hey,

10 days ago I bought a 2022 Chrysler Pacifica with a 3k mile bumper to bumper warranty from time of purchase and a 100k mile warranty for the powertrain. 2300 miles later, I suddenly get a check engine light, an automatic start/stop warning, and an oil warning message saying my oil needs changed. I’ve called every Chrysler dealer in my area, and no one can see it for over a month, at which point the warranty on that auto start stop will have expired. I called Chrysler, and they said there’s nothing they can do, that I’m just fucked if no dealership can service the car before that warranty runs out. Am I just fucked?

Any help would be appreciated 2013 Ford F-150 Xl 3.5 engine So my truck died on me yesterday. The day before I replaced 2 spark plugs (I replaced the other 4 some time earlier) and it was running rough in the morning. Then wouldn't start again. It's trying to turn over but just isn't making it. Starter is only a year old, fuel pump is too. I replaced those 2 spark plugs and nothing. Getting a code reader on it said I have a P2307: Ignition coil C primary circuit high. So I replaced the ignition coil and still nothing. I'm stumped, do you have any suggestion?

Over the last couple weeks my Chevy Uplander has been having issues shifting from 1st to 2nd. Today it completely stopped shifting from neutral when I shift to drive and 3(it does run if I shift all the way to 2 and 1). Google search says it's either low on transmission fluid or the shift control is having issues. Anyone have any ideas as to what it could be?

I have k&n c&c aluminum cold air intake for a 3.2l pentastar performance V6 engine, my question is what's the best filter for it? Mind you that I will be on trails since it's in a jeep kl. So dirt and dust is heavy. Should I keep the oiled filter or go dry filter? Thx

I need new tires. How much difference does it make if I buy HP27 vs HP71 in the same tire? HUGE price difference.

Just wondering is any one has access to this I wan to have a read of it for project

Hi! I'm in a strategic planning class at university right now and my group and I need to conduct research on automotive decisions. If you have 5 minutes, please take the time to fill out this survey. Thank you so much!!

I-lock not working only on driver side after bodyshop repair.

So. I’m not a member of this group, nor a automotive electronics hobbyist. I was really just wanting to get some clarity on a topic under dispute. I am in a group that deals with people spending a great deal of time in their vehicles, and what they do to provide various necessary functions: cooking/heating/cooling/laptops/etc

There are many different accessories marketed as being able to run off a cars 12v plugin. I have used some without issue. Personally have not really tried any that haven’t worked that I can recall But there are some folks that are insisting that one should avoid using the 12v plug in for anything other than a phone charger. That the accessories just blow the fuses. That the wiring cannot handle much. That they can cause electrical fires. That they drain the battery.

It is my thought process that there are certain factors on such accessories and the vehicle itself that one should look for to make sure they are compatible. And perhaps other conditions, like not leaving stuff plugged in when the vehicle is turned off?

I was just curious what the thoughts are of the folks in this community on this topic? Any insight or tips?

I’m looking to sell my car ASAP. I live in a small town and assume the turnaround time will take too long to wait it out and sell it here. What online brokers would you suggest to sell a used car too?

Introduction:

Selecting the right oil for your Toyota Camry is crucial for maintaining optimal engine performance and longevity. With various options available on the market, finding the best oil can be overwhelming. In this article, we'll delve into the factors to consider and recommend the top choices for your Camry's engine.

Understanding Oil Viscosity:

Oil viscosity refers to its thickness or resistance to flow. It's denoted by a numerical value followed by the letter 'W' for winter (e.g., 5W-30). The first number indicates the oil's viscosity in cold temperatures, while the second number represents its viscosity at operating temperatures.

For most Toyota Camry models, a recommended viscosity range falls between 0W-20 and 5W-30. However, it's essential to consult your owner's manual or seek advice from a certified mechanic to ensure compatibility with your specific model and driving conditions.

Factors to Consider:

Driving Conditions: Consider your typical driving environment. If you frequently drive in extreme temperatures or engage in heavy towing or hauling, opt for oil with higher viscosity for better engine protection.

Manufacturer Specifications: Adhering to Toyota's recommended oil specifications is vital to maintain warranty coverage and ensure optimal engine performance. Toyota typically recommends synthetic oils for their newer models due to their superior performance and longevity.

Oil Additives: Look for oils with additives that offer additional benefits such as improved fuel economy, enhanced engine cleanliness, and better wear protection.

Top Oil Recommendations for Toyota Camry:

Toyota Genuine Motor Oil: Manufactured specifically for Toyota vehicles, this oil meets the stringent requirements set by the manufacturer. It ensures compatibility with your Camry's engine and provides excellent protection against wear and deposits. Continuing Reading

Could someone please help me do a title search on a vehicle I’m wanting to purchase please.

The driver side headlight is out on my wife's 2016 Hyunda Santa Fe. I attempted to get it changed when she got her oil changed at a local shop, but I was told they didn't have the equipment to change it there. I am NOT a Mr. Fixit--quite the opposite.

My wife went to the local dealership today, and they quoted her a notice of over $600 for both high and low beam--Part #s 18647-35010 and D3SC1. The tech told my wife that they would put in the new parts if we brought them in, which I thought was pretty nice.

I see replacement parts on Amazon, AutoZone, etc. Are they acceptable replacements or should I look elsewhere?

Thanks.

2-year old battery sitting in a car that hasn't driven in that same time. The battery is now down to 3.x volts. Seems to be responding to a charge, but does that necessarily mean it will work properly again?

I'm sure it's still under warranty (Interstate from Costco), so should I swap it anyway?

Hello! Looking for a product that I'm not entirely sure exists as I'm envisioning.

I'm building a project vehicle out of a '94 S10; no power locks, no trunk (obviously). I'd like to swap out the key ignition in the column for a push button start, and there are plenty of options to do a simple button, however - I'm interested in finding a system that requires a remote or RFID device in close proximity to allow it to start, like more modern cars. A lot of the kits I've seen come with pretty common remotes that have lock/unlock, panic, trunk, and occasionally remote start buttons on them. This is not what I want though, I just want one that offers ignition and requires a remote to be either held up to a receiver or within the vehicle while starting. I don't need or particularly want remote start capability either.

I have found some kits that more or less fit the bill on Amazon, but I'm a little hesitant due to potential quality issues there. I'll certainly try one of them if anyone has had good luck with them, but I'd rather get a halfway decent kit that will last. If you've used or know of a product that sounds like what I'm describing, please detail or even link it. Thanks!

I was just offer a job at a dealer as an automotive technician, and it has a union, what should I need to know before I accept the job. Guaranteed 40 hours, and I’m coming from an independent shop that I’m make average 105-110 a year. I feel like I can make more at a dealer but not sure

I’m wondering if my halo bolt ultimate will be able to power a Schumacher SC1304 battery charger long enough to pump a couple volts into a vehicle battery that’s been sitting for a few months while the car was out of commission.

Backstory ~ the mother of my daughter has a 2009 Chevy cobalt LT 5 speed manual, that had electrical gremlins since September of last year starting with a bad BCM. These vehicles are equipped with the most loved anti theft system, GM’s passkey II. Long story short, I’ve replaced n reprogrammed the BCM, reset the anti theft but within 24 hours of fixing one thing, the car would eventually stall out and no longer turn over. Fast forward more and the fuel pump etc has been changed, it’s a manual so there is no TCM as i found out while taking apart every ground, harness connector, etc and either cleaned it or repair/replaced wires as needed. She lives in an apartment complex that doesn’t allow vehicle maintenance, (haha got em) so I’d rather not run 100+ft of extension cords to plug in the battery charger to charge the battery. I’m hoping the AC outlet on this halo will hold long enough to plug in the battery charger and charge the battery. Am i high or is this just crazy enough to work? Thanks in advance.

Alright, let's dive into the topic of SUVs for women drivers. There are several great options out there that cater specifically to the needs and preferences of women.

SUVs like the Toyota RAV4 or the Honda CR-V offer a perfect blend of reliability, safety, and style.

Does anyone have any experience with these SUVs?

Recently purchased a car with Driveway.com. Buying was very easy and I had zero issues. As soon as I paid things immediately went downhill. Customer support is nearly impossible to contact and seems to outright refuse to respond to emails. Car was received with minor damage, they didn’t care. However the real reason I’m writing this review is due to their incompetence when it came to registering my car. It’s been over two months since I received my car and I don’t have plates. I was supposed to be able to get temporary tags but it’s turns out Driveway wasn’t even in possession of the title to the car they sold me so this was not possible. Wasted my one day off a week at the DMV finding that out. They didn’t care. The temporary tags are now a moot point anyway as they would have been long expired. So now I’m waiting on them to finally register my car which will supposedly occur at the end of this month (so about 3 months wait time total). No apology, no offer to fix things, very little communication. Dealing with Driveway.com has been the worst business interaction of my life and I would recommend anyone looking for a used vehicle to steer clear of them.

I recently got a 2012 VW Tiguan with 55k miles. The maintenance schedule says to bleed brakes every 10K so figured I’d do it myself and bought a Motive “Power Bleeder” and some OEM brake fluid.

I thought I did everything right, but now I’ve noticed if I do a quick stop, there’s a squeak sound from the front left brake. It kind of sounds like an old bike horn’s “honk”. If I do a nice gentle stop, there isn’t any sound, so it happens if you idle forward a smidge and then stop quick. The brake pedal feels good (not soft).

Any ideas about what would cause this, or tips for fixing it?

Hi so im no mechanic and have no idea with car except some minor things but i noticed that my car started to sound like a helicopter when i drive, its not loud but you can hear the sound. Does anyone know what would it be?

Had it towed the mechanic checked fuel pressure and all the basics as far as I know, it will start and idle fine but if you go above 500 rpms it dies, I did find a main ground that had broken but it's fixed and still doing same thing, mechanic gave up on it, do you all know of the first thing I can start throwing money at to fix this issue could that ground being fried something, thanks in advance for any help or any advice you all might have

One of the brake lights in my car won't work due to a wiring fault. How can I fix it? The car is a 2002 Camry.
