    Rental car review - 2026 Chevy Trax LT

    Same! I haven’t had any problems with CVTs either and they have now become my preference. However, I haven’t tried to put 200K miles on them either.

    What oil are vq37 owners using?

    From reading some older posts, Nissan VQ engines(& owners) seemed to like heavier grade oils. I’ve had a couple of VQ’s and would agree but I suppose it isn’t necessary.

    Rental car review - 2026 Chevy Trax LT

    We were seriously considering a BUICK Encore GX back in ‘23 because we both wanted something a bit smaller in the “subcompact segment”…we thought! I feel that the Trax/Envista & Trailblazer/Encore are all closely related even if they’re not. So, we drove two AWD BUICK Encore GX w/1.3L - 3 cyl...

    Differential within auto transmission - 1989 Toyota Camry

    It’s been a long time for me and older Toyota’s so, my reply may be off a bit. Keep I’m mind that the OP(Sprintcar26) is referring to a 37 year old Camry.

    Differential within auto transmission - 1989 Toyota Camry

    On the FWD Toyota’s that I have owned in the past and I believe that your ‘89 Camry is the same, the ATF in the differential and the automatic transmission all get circulated together. When changing the ATF from the transmission pan(10mm HEX),it does not drain the differential. However there...
