1) Had a mechanic install plugs on my daughters Jetta with a 2.5. The next plug change I did myself, each plug was loose and I was able to take each one out without even putting a ratchet on it. 2) Had a 1996 Corvette was serviced at the dealer. When I got home oil was overfilled by 2 quarts.

My daughter needs tires for here 2024 Honda CRV hybrid Sport Touring at 40k miles. The OE tires are Continental Cross LX Sport which are around $1300. I can get the Continental LX 25 from Sams for about $960. I see the OE tires are designed for a "sporty handling". She is a mom with a 2 1/2...

I do like that car and the color is amazing.I know people like to knock cars of that era for lack of performance, but they handled great and the brakes were better than any of the muscle cars that preceded them. Also there interiors were more comfrtable. Personally I would take one over the...

I will say I was at a Ford dealership and saw a new mustang and the panel gaps were terrible

I had a 1990 same model as the 1991. Had a 3.8 V6. It was extremely reliable had it for 15 years and 230k miles. They said the 3.8 had headgasket issues but mine did not. One of the best daily drivers I had.

I wonder what the psychological reason that a person can see something and when it affects their Country, team, driver, or guy they dismiss the facts and are with them even if they are wrong, out, making an excuse etc. They cant look at the facts objectively. Is it wanting to be on the...

Same beans I measured the water and the coffee with a measuring cup. The percolator is Electric with a Auto shut off. It taste so much better with the drip with the percolator it tastes weak.

I just brewed 2 cups of coffee one with a Farberware percolator and the other with a no name cheap drip machine. Poured both in a clear mug and the drip coffee was noticeably darker. It wasn't even close. I would think the percolator would brew a stronger cup. Anyone know why this is so?

It was close! we were able to get behind some cover before it blew. There was a mushroom cloud you could see for miles.

Yes, I actually ran that in my 2019 Q5 which also required 508 00 since it was off warranty. We have been taking some road trips and decided we wanted a newish car and not keep them as long as we did in the past. Funny story we had a 2018 Q5 which was giving us trouble with not recognizing its...

Lighten up, If you must know this is why:)....I asked if there was already a shortage as I had seen reports there may be in the near future. Also car is under warranty and I will trade it as soon as the warranty is over in 4yr/50k, why on earth would I use a non approved oil. If the motor fails...

I went to a different Walmart and they had 508 00, guess it was the just an issue at the this specific Walmart

Why are so many car shows on TV cringe Worthy. The only ones I have seen that are decent are the older Wheeler Dealers, Power nation where they rebuilt some cool cars (old SS Camaro Z06 etc.) I can tolerate Graveyard Cars because I was a MOPAR guy back in the day but the owner is trying to...

Not quite there yet, There are 2 other WM near me which I will try first

I went to buy some oil for my 2025 Atlas VW spec 508 00 and Walmart was out of that spec. Is this an issue already due to the War in Iran or is this just this specific store. I may try another later
