Battery should make no difference to any of these things except for perhaps re-recalibrating the auto up/down window switch and auto moonroof open and close feature. This may not even be the case on a Toyota/ Lexus product. I may be wrong, but perhaps someone connected jumper cables incorrectly...

I’ve had these tires in the “T” rating on a 2015 MDX which is very similar to your car with a bit more sportier driving dynamic and they were great; Quiet, smooth and performed well in all weather conditions. The “T” rated tire is a bit softer and has a longer treadlife warranty Which will work...

Vehicle was bought pre-owned with 2x,xxxx miles on it. I'm thinking the owner did drive on some type of gravel road and damaged the tire. Any worry about the safety of the tire? The cuts aren't all the way through. Seems to be fine on the highway with no apparent vibration. I plan to replace...

The vehicle is no longer under warranty.

This is on the outside of one front tire

After digging online, looks like this a typical Mercedes Benz issue. The seam is split in half. I know the seat can be re-upholstered by a shop but I'm curious to see if anyone had had anything like this fixed by stitching the seam back together to avoid re-upholstering the entire seat and/or...

Infiniti Q50 AWD.

Hi folks, Wondering if anyone can diagnose this issue. These are the horrid OEM Run-Flat tires on my vehicle that I've noticed pieces of tread coming off of. I'm curious if a tire shop can take care of this issue as a warranty claim or if anyone has seen anything like this. I'm attaching...

Does anyone have experience with these? Perform well? Oem equivalent? Looks like they are oem equivalents and may actually be the same as oem for a 2014 Acura MDX application I would use these on. One thing I saw when looking inside the box is that they don't come with shims. Should I reuse the...

It's time to change the brake pads on our 2014 Acura MDX SH-AWD. Looking at the Akebono ProAct pads for the front and rear shows two separate offerings. Akebono ProAct Ultra Premium Ceramic Brake Pads Part No: ACT1281 Akebono ProAct Ultra Premium Ceramic Brake Pads Part No: ACT1280 Akebono...

Guys, I'm asking about the refrigerant oil not the freon. Looks like if you're converting from R12 to R134a, NOT to use refrigerant oil with PAG as the remaining oil won't be compatible leading to problems.

Hi All, I have a 1991 Chevrolet K1500 which I want to convert from R-12 to R-134a as the A/C blows warm and the R12 is hard to service especially if dye needs to be added to source a leak which this truck may or may not have. I was told by a mechanic to convert it over to the newer freon as...

Def. charge it up. It won't do any harm and will put less strain on your alternator. I make this a habit over night every couple of months or so with a slow 1.5amp inexpensive charger I use.

I was on the same boat as you recently where I did not need a LT tire nor did I need an all terrain tire. My concern was rain performance and snow performance on a Silverado while maintaining a certain budget on this purchase. I ended up installing General HTS60 tires based on reviews and price...

I'd assume not very many extra miles but they all ran excellent on the thinner oil and that's what Toyota/Lexus recommends now on these engines.

Installed the P rated General Grabber HTS60 and couldn't be happier. Rides smoother, quieter with less rolling resistance.

I've owned 5 vehicles with the 2GR-FE engine and have always used Pennzoil Platinum or Pennzoil Platinum Ultra with Fram XG9972 with 6k-7k mile OCI without any issues. I've also used the filters for two oil changes with the above mileage intervals without issues and feel confident they would...

I've recently bought a 1991 Silverado Extended Cab, Long Bed to use for Home Depot runs and to load stuff into this truck for transport that I would not like to put into my nicer SUV or sedan. The truck came with LT tires from the factory in size 245/75-16. The previous owner upgraded the size...
