    Are the days of the 10k OCI over with?

    Which rules? I'm pretty sure you can opine on here that the 10K mile interval is for environmental purposes, (if that is your belief) without getting banned. The cloak-and-dagger reference to the EPA is unnecessary and doesn't add gravitas to the case you're trying to make. (For the record, I do...

    Geez, what the heck? I guess these things are only $20?! (2015 Fit) Plus programming which is expected...

    Honda duplicate key hack for smart key fob

    Yes, exactly the same in the Honda manual. I'd assume all cars with push button start, too.

    Honda duplicate key hack for smart key fob

    No, that's not the problem because I can make a copy of it from the "emergency" key in the fob and open the door, but that's it.

    Honda duplicate key hack for smart key fob

    I'm looking for a cheap way to make a duplicate chip for a Honda with the smart key fob entry system. It's keyless, but comes with a key, built into the fob incase its battery is dead, that will unlock the door but of course not start it as there's no ignition switch, just push button. So, if I...

    I want to change the filter and not the oil

    That it was "dealer serviced" because it has an OEM filter, that's what is illusionary. I'm not saying you'd lie and advertise it as being dealer serviced.

    Vehicle Sighting - 1959 Chevy Biscayne 2-door sedan

    Too bad they wrecked it by lowering, slapping those wheels on it and of course I'm sure it's LS swapped, or will be.

    What is it with the Northeast and missing gas pump auto-hold tangs?

    It's an anti-fraud thing. Say you wanted only $10 worth. You can't go to the cashier and claim that the "nozzle wouldn't shut off" because of the clicker "jammed" or whatever BS story they create. With your hand on the trigger, you are presumed to be in control. They hardly remove them around...

    Soliciting thoughts- 2019 DRW F350 stolen (salvage but clear title)

    My 2001 Ranger Edge had a chipped key , so not sure why they said Ford started that in '08.

    Contacting the former car owner, or contacted by a new owner of your car

    They changed the law here, maybe in the '80s, mandating the name and address be available to the new owner, so those of you alleging this is creepy are jumping to conclusions and are cynical...

    Contacting the former car owner, or contacted by a new owner of your car

    I bought a car from a sleazy Florida car corner lot ("stealer" in BITOG parlance) but it came incomplete with no remote, Owner's Manual and just one (chip) key. (When asked where they were, the salesman said "I dunno.") I contacted the former owner in the hope he had those and send to me and I'd...

    Hyundai Engine warranty approved, but...

    Guy at work just got approval for a new engine in his '16 Sonata. They gave him a '23 Sonata as a rental (5 weeks time frame)...he's only 20. Dumb as he is, he posted burnout pics on his Facebook account, with the front dealer plate visible, and raves about how fast it is. He claims the engine...

    The extremes our vehicles see!

    Not in Maine, unless you park your car for several hours on blacktop during an exceptionally hot day.

    Thread for photos that 100% do not violate any Terms Of Service, not political, not too lewd, no gas price pics etc.

    The exact same car and color we had as a family growing up, 1962 Ranch wagon. I remember picking it up from the proverbial showroom floor at the Ford dealership. I was 4; one of my first memories if not the first! And, that family picture at first glance could pass as ours except that the mother...

    Missed items on a PDI (used car purchase)

    I bought a used Honda (from a Nissan dealer) back in September. Here are hits and misses from the PDI (Pre Delivery Inspection): Hits: New oil, all filters (air, oil, cabin) new battery. NAPA parts. All safety inspections done (lights, tires and so on), legitimate. They did an absolutely...

    Listening to the radio in your vehicle.....

    Radio is OFF. A co-worker asked what kind of music I like and he was horrified when I told him none. Silence is golden.
