I do not know whether to post this topic here or in the Humor section. Here is what my friends say about OC and general maintenance. Friend #1: Says never to mix synthetic and dino oil. His mechanic says that the engine cannot handle it. He switched to synthetic forever and will not go back to...

Hello all, need your expert advice on this problem my friend is having. Car in question is 2000 Toyota Camry CE 4 cylinders with 206,000 miles. The car still has a lot of original parts as far as I know. The inner tie rods needs to be replaced. We took the car to a mechanic who suggested to...

I got the free 30 day trial to test it out. I did not like it. When it works, the voice quality is excellent. But when I had to disconnect it from the USB and reconnect it again, the MagicJack software will start and spend 10 minutes trying to establish a connection and in the end an error shows...

Thanks SrDriver. This is definitely better than the built in zoom feature in FireFox.

97 Toyota Camry Mix of: Castrol Domestic ATF and SuperTech Dex/Merc

thank you all for your answers.

As you all know, Oreilly's, AZ and AAP all have free electrical system testing. They can test the battery, alternator and starter without taking it out of your car. My question is: How accurate are these tests? A while back I took my car battery and had it tested at all these places. 2 of...

hey all, my friend bought this 7 pin S-Video to 3 RCA cable. Looks like the one in this link: http://cgi.ebay.com/7-Pin-S-Video-To-3-R...93%3A1|294%3A50 He connected it to his laptop and only can get video but no sound. I know that S-Video is only for video. Does anyone have this cable and...

^ Yes i asked one of my friends to change his password and the spam stopped. I am hoping to find out if it's a spyware file or something else.

Hey all, need your help on this one. Recently I am getting spam messages from known contacts on my Windows Live Messenger. It started just a few messages every now and by now i'm getting them daily and it's [censored] me off. Here are some examples of what I am getting: PLEASE DO NOT GO TO...

ATF is Dexron II/III. Should be inscribed on the ATF dipstick. There is a strainer (I think that's what it's called) which can be cleaned and be reused. There is a drain plug which is located underneath the driver side. It's easy to locate. How many miles do you have on the car? and is it a I4...

Well I just replaced the inverter and so far so good. I think we solved the problem. I asked my friend to use his laptop all weekend and report back. Overall it was easy with the service manual in hand. Best part is that my friend paid $18 for a new inverter. Thank you all again for your help...

Well here is my oil stash. I cannot buy anymore since I don't have any space left! With current inventory, I can do 12 oil changes on my car. If every oil change is 5K miles, I should be good for 60,000 miles.

Well my friend connected an external monitor to the laptop and when the LCD screen turned off (or became very dark) the external monitor worked as it should. It did not turn off. I have the service manual for this laptop and will replace the inverter once it arrives. I'll report back with the...
