    How old is too old for brake fluid?

    Just flushed my Silverado with what is probably 7 year old bottles of sealed fluid. Looked nice and clear and clamps great.

    Timing chain tensioners Seal leaking, start up rattle

    Nice. Terminator. I had a red 10th Anniversary. Could throw a little AT205 in there and see what happens

    Hot engine, hot climate, and rideshare. Burning oil like crazy and need a change. Recommendations?

    Might be time for my favorite, Mobil 2

    When to Change Motor Mounts

    I've had good luck with the cheap aftermarket mounts on my v6 accord. They don't absorb as much nvh though so that vibration might not improve... If you have an EX-L it might have the totally unnecessary fluid filled engine mounts that are significantly more money.

    2007 Corvette - Stuck differential fill plug

    Finally that trick pays off for someone. I had a brake line I couldn't crack loose once and I just hit it with a little pb blaster every other day for a couple weeks. Came out easy. Put a pipe or half the jack handle on your breaker bar. Otherwise, anyone make an aftermarket diff cover...

    Magnetic Drain Plug Truly Worth It?

    2011 Odyssey sudden P0302, P0118 and many more

    No. A local mechanic she was on a first name basis with worked on it for the last 90,000 miles. Place used to be a machine shop and repair shop. Anything she was told it needed it got. She keeps invoices, they hit her for tune ups, suspension work and rotor cut brake jobs, 5k oil changes...

    2011 Odyssey sudden P0302, P0118 and many more

    I will. I ordered 2 more OEM coil packs to swap the rear bank out. Not sure if the remaining two are original but they live in a hotter space and on failed already. The front Bank is still all OEM Hitachi. I'll put plugs in it but I believe they're real NGK. I'm in that position of the...

    Why don't Honda/Acura V-6 Owners Replace Their Timing Belts?

    Well look at it as an opportunity to beat them down on the price. I wouldn't even necessarily trust a sticker under the hood of a used car...

    '96 Pathfinder - 16.9 mpg - Pathetic!

    Bump the tire pressure up to 50 and I bet you get to 17.8 Btw my 06 3.0 Accord gets 21-23mpg. The only time it does well is on a straight highway trip. If I burn a full tank in one day non stop highway I see 31-33
