tell the dealership that your purchase is contingent on an oil change.

http://www.autopia.org/ is the best place i've found for detailing info.

the new mother's synwax is the easiest application ever. eo nanowax spray is better than the liquid pump stuff in my opinion. much easier to apply, and the life is similar. the appearance is ok (i have a silver car, and it's hard to get much "pop") eo waud and eo detail spray are both great...

i had a set of cecs, then prior to snow flying this season replaced them with the avon tech m550 m/s. i really liked the cecs, but they did get progressively louder and at 40k miles the wet grip was far worse than the remaining tread would have indicated (still fine dry). the techs have been...

sure is a lot of serious conversation regarding this post...

i wasn't too impressed with the nanowax. easy on, easy off, but the durability was limited (on a silver car - should be worse on a black car). appearance was ok.

the maf can go, but it will eventually throw a cel. mine seemed to wait a while before the code showed up. i reset the ecu and it came back, but it took a while again. then i got it fixed...

that's exactly what it was, gary.

still check for slow leaks, especially the hoses to and from the radiator. i had one a few years ago that only leaked when you were driving and didn't leave any tracks on the floor.

i've been horribly unimpressed with the rain-ex anti-fog wipes. good for cleaning my motorcycle face plate, but no real anti-fog ability. go to a place that sells snow mobiles and find some fog city or that green artic cat anti-fog spray. i've had good luck with both of these. i figure if it...

i put an extra coat or two of wax on prior to the snow flying. i take my car to a touchless every week or spray it down myself. then it goes into the heated garage where i wipe it down with eagle one wax-as-u-dry and then maybe some detail spray. if you use microfiber towels you shouldn't have...

i've done autorx, and will continue to do so on 50,000 mile intervals or so. i'm just curious about the in-between stuff.

does lube control perform any of the functions of high mileage oil? i'm debating the merits of continuing with my current regimen of lc and pennzoil or switching to high mileage oil. i have about 80,000 on my car and am getting close to another oil change. i know lc cleans, but i was...

patman - i've had excellent durability out of #26. i do wash my car in the winter to keep the salt off. i also use eagle one waud after washing to keep things up. having a heated garage is a plus as well. my car gets waxed two or three times during the winter. if it were me, i'd do the two...

i'm with mike-in-orange. it cleans and leaves a pleasant feel; not slick or tacky. i'd recommend that you spray it on the towel and not just start hosing away. like typical meg's sprayers, it tends to mist all over the place. it works on about any interior surface.

there's always lube control and fuel power. i noticed a lot of improvement on my carbed bike; not much in particular on my fuel injected bike. before i switched to lc & fp i did use mmo with good results. that was a twin, not a thumper. my current bike is a 650 single.

yup. i brainfarted.

sealant generally after a wax. the only reason to use a polish as a last step process is if you are showing the car.

bought a bottle to add to my collection. i used a damp sponge applicator to apply. about half done when when i start shooting the **** with my neighbor. my car sat in the sun for at least 45 minutes before i got back to it. i finished applying the wax to my car, then cleaned the windows and...
