One of my kids had a Mustang with RS gas filling but that made sense because because being a 2 door, the door was long and needed the space to swing wide to let you out. Why a 4 door VW would have RS filling - they are VW. I don't think there is a reason for half the things they do.

My mother had the same car, diff model year. She had problems with the rear window lifts, intermediate steering shaft rattle, and the headliner tearing and falling down at the top of the back glass.

Straight with aluminum tube is the cat's meow. I find the steel tubed straight ones give me a back ache.

I would guess it was a work truck at a rock quarry or something driven on rock rubble roads. Our plant trucks did this, although to a lesser extent, being driven on crushed rock roads.

ORiely was out of Wix for my daughter’s Edge at my last filter change so i bought a Microguard. It looked very well made and as good as the wix it replaced. I will check it at 10k mikes and make sure there is no dust on the clean side of the air box. If all is well I may start using more...

I bought a used 2003 Silverado that had similar problems. The AC never did get really cold and even less so if the outside temperature was hot or the humidity was high. After checking through everything we concluded the problem was a failed outside air intake door actuator that had the...

It would be a pity if the telematics fuse blew.

Nevermind

Never any explanation or details of the "radiation". Is it Alpha, Beta, Gamma, dilithium crystals, etc. Did some clever hoaxsters crunch up some Fiestaware and spread the dust?

Different places experience it differently. In the deeeep south there isn't as pronounced difference in winter and summer day lengths so it is really nice to get an extra hour of daylight in the summer afternoons. Meanwhile a place like Chattanooga on the trailing edge of the time zone is in...

My mom had a 2001. The oil fill cap said 10W30. Never understood why since every GM engine I had seen since the early 80's said 5W30.

Walmart has the best ATM network I've used. It's not exactly free, cost maybe $1.50-$2.00 per withdrawal, but you get a pack of gum, apple, candy bar, or bag of chips for using it.

This is the over ripe banana dilemma. No real use, not hungry, might taste bad, but I already paid for it so I should use it. Sunk cost items for which the purpose has expired cost nothing to throw away. Its an uncomfortable idea to embrace, but liberating.

My apologies. I stand corrected. I'm not a Mopar afficionado but I still think the rumble of a Hemi is way cooler than the blatt of a Ram Cummins.

I don't care how many turbos you stack on a V6 it is never going to sound like an authentic muscle car. Like Reba McEntire trying to sing opera.

My wife doesn't know beans about light temperature but she knows what light is best for putting on makeup and it happens to be 3k, sooooo our lightbulbs are all 3k. The shop lights I bought for the garage are 5k which is bright white without being blue. I like that in the garage but it might...

The only time I have seen dust in the intake tube was on used cars with (1) a filter/air box that was not properly seated/sealed at the last service and (2) cars with a K&N replacement filter. The most I ever see with a stock filter is a slight haze on the plastic which I'm wondering might be...

My daughter lives in Memphis. In Memphis crosswalks are to show cars where to stop for traffic lights and traffic lights are only for cars. Some of the city blocks are kind of long so you just expect to see someone attempting to cross a busy 5 lane street any time any place as long as they...
