    Engine oil temp not rising over 196 degrees even after 35 minute drive.

    Seems normal to me. On extremely hot days, or running it in a spirited fashion it will go higher.

    Change your coolant!!! Yes change it!

    I know that I do not like changing heater cores. I have done more than my share in my lifetime (mostly on other people's cars). Whatever reduces the chance of me having to replace a heater core is good maintenance in my experience.

    Horn wouldn't stop today,unplugged..what to do?

    This happens on the C5 vettes. It is the horn contacts under the airbag module. As the foam the keeps the contacts apart deteriorates it does keep the contacts separated when not pushed. If the horn contacts are part of the airbag, that is where I would bet the issue is.

    intermittent fading brake pedal

    Probably high water/moisture content of brake fluid and when hot water boils and makes it spongy. I have seen this before with an old Honda Accord. New fluid, bleeding at the calipers and wheel cyl. should do the trick. At least 1 qt. or more needed of fluid or 3-4 small containers. Suck the...

    Now I don't feel so bad about using an aftermarket PCV in my `07 Accord 2.4, that I got from RockAuto, forgot the brand, but so far so good and that was years ago.

    HPL Oil Concerns

    I don't think they would have made it this far if they had any issues with their products. Top notch products for people looking for something better than they need. When my supply of Amsoil is done, I am considering HPL. But again, way better than I need.
