Plaintiffs allege that Smitty’s/CAM2 303 was made with inadequate and inappropriate ingredients including used transformer oil, used turbine oil, and line flush, did not meet equipment manufacturers’ specifications and was not appropriate for use as tractor hydraulic fluid or hydraulic fluid...

Nice, I have a 2020 F56 that I really like.

The original halogens in my 2020 RAM were so bad they should be illegal. I live out in the country. What got me on this path was my Mini has OEM LED self leveling headlights, best headlights I have ever had in a vehicle. I'd drive my RAM and couldn't see worth a darn. I was hesitant and not an...

I've been running 5W-30 in my '20 5.7L since the first oil change with no issues.

I rebuilt a Suzuki GS1000 that sat in a dirt floor garden shed for 15 years, the bores were pitted. Overbore fixed that.

I'm concerned about the long term viability of the electronics. We are struggling with component obsolescence in the aerospace industry. Even newer designs are seeing obsolescence issues. Can you get a new headlight control module for a 2004 Dodge RAM pickup? Probably a bad example, since there...

Nice I have both, but my S&W is a 5906

My son and I rebuilt the suspension on the front of his 05 Sequoia, We used all OEM. Find an on-line toyota supplier that discounts. Some of the stuff was cheaper than aftermarket. There is a lot of junk out there, I call them legal counterfeit.

Any manufacturer can have a bad one, unless it becomes a trend, then I wouldn't be concerned. The only CVT I own is in my Yamaha Grizzly 660, turns 21 this year. I'm old I try to avoid CVTs in cars, but Subaru, Toyota, and Honda have sold thousands of them. I would hope they would be reliable.

Brown was a thing in the late 70's. I had a brown '73 ElCamino.

Yep not to mention the 767-2C debacle and the presidential aircraft conversion bad press. 777X delays. The only program I haven't heard and bad press on is the 777 legacy, which is all freighter production right now.

Honestly I have never used anything but plain old Rustoleum paint with proper prep. 40+ years and no issues. If you are smoking the paint off of your calipers on a street car you may have other issues. Most recent job was the rotor hats in my Mini F56, a year ago, still nice and shiny. No disco...

Google removing locking lug nuts with no key, I'm not sure they are worth the hassle anymore.

A guy I work with just lost a lifter in a 2016 Tahoe at around 115K miles. Dealer quoted 7-10K to fix! Sucks it's a nice truck.
