Mine is stored in a unconditioned enclosed garage on a shelf. Summers can get up to 90 in there while winters can make get as cold as 35. Oil is providing performance as expected in my cars.

I think most of us don't have the dedicated time, money or facilities to do professional quality detailing that we all know would bring out the best shine & protection for our cars. This is where AIO Sealants seem to be a godsend: Saves time while protecting & shining. My weapon of choice is...

Just used this past weekend as a wash. Love it! I did it on both our silver Camry & Mazda3 so less obvious of any scratches. Didn't use a hose @ all. Not sure how much time I save by not using the hose, but definitely saved on water usage. I didn't use the 2 bucket & did fear of using dirty...

General Altimax HP. Have had them for 40+k glorious miles of stickiness & wet traction excellence on my '06 Mazda3. Goto TireRack & see what people are saying now. I knew about them when they were not very well known.

How widely available is 0W-40 (Euro) M1 @ Walmart? I seem to never be able to find it at any Walmart that I go to but then I see people posting on the net that they get it regularly at their local. Just trying to find if it's a regional thing or marketing or what?

Actually, the OEM tires on my Mercedes GLK350 4Matic are listed as the [cenored] Dunlop Grandtrek Touring A/S (Crossover/SUV Touring All-Season) on Tire Rack. I wanted to upsize from the 20" tires from OEM 235/45/20 to 245/45/20 which will take a <~1% speedometer hit - acceptable in my eyes...

Can some of your experienced Mityvac 7201 owners tell me how this is done: REMOVING THE RUBBER STOPPER? I swear my thumbs hurt like [censored] trying to remove it even after greasing it up with oil to remove it. The seal is tight & wont let go.

Brake fluid. Power Steering Fluid. Transmisson Fluid. Coolant. I change them all if you haven't & get on a routine schedule with them. Again great ideas about the hoses & belts too.

The current gen Camry is a never ending noogie machine. Since we've bought her - besides the 2 recalls we've had to: Coil packs. Wheel bearings. & now the driver visor won't stay up flat against the roof. Wife got mad that it kept coming down & she tore it out. So now I need to search for one...

Doing my first brake job this weekend on 2007 Camry. It's the fronts - Centric Rotors & Wagner Thermo Quiet Pads. What is the recommendation for a brake noise lubricant? Any other tips for a good brake job would be appreciated. Thanks!
