    Vehicle Gross Weight on Registration

    Not correct, any truck plated vehicle registered in PA you can change the "weight" catagory of the registration any time you want, they will also do it the same time as you renew you regular license plates, I had no idea what any of that was until I bought a new 2500HD truck which was for very...

    are you guys using impact for axle nut or hand torquing with torque wrench to spec?

    I've only replaced one cv axle assembly in my life (knock on wood). I thought that the axle nut only held together the sealed bearing/knuckle/axle assembly. How does the axle nut affect the bearing load? Maybe it depends on what type of bearing you are using, the older non sealed type that sits...

    2005 Corvette harmonic balancer wobbling 70,000 miles

    I had a TSB replacement done on my 2011 caprice with 6.0 at just 18k miles and I believe that it applied to the entire run of cars up to '17. So yes it continues on to this day. I would check your vin# and make sure they don't have one for you, they do not expire like a warranty does. On my car...

    Mileage for first rear differential fluid change?

    Do it at the 5k use their oil, sleep like a baby. I did them at just over 10k on our new truck and I was amazed the old oil looked again like silver paint coming out. It supposedly normal and from the break in but Ive never seen that b4.....

    Back Up Camera

    We have a new truck with the camera in the tailgate handle area and the issue with that is any time you have the tailgate down, like you bought 12 ft boards is that you lose the function of it in that position. I have 2 cars with the added LP frame cameras and while they are as good as a new car...

    Should I buy a "B" Temperature tire for 2016 Pilot?

    The temp rating is supposed to be the resistance to heat affecting the overall tire handling? I would never buy a "b" unless it came with a much softer sidewall rating for the load capacity which I don't think is what you are referring to correct? the H vs T is speed rating? YRMV, I tend to...

    Survey: Does gear oil smell TERRIBLE to you or just so-so?

    you guys need to buy the newer GM version which has a grape smell added to it. https://www.amazon.com/ACDelco-10-4016-75W-90-Synthetic-Axle/dp/B000QGOX1A It was very odd first time i used it. Also that SC OEM oil is made with something animal based, I swear the old GM LSD additive said on the...

    Replaced Golf Sportwagen with an Alltrack

    i bought the standard S wagon last year, non AT then lowered on the MK7 R OEM springs. GREAT CAR.... get yourself a JB4 if you are a serious driver, if not a pedal commander type device. both are invisible to dealer service issues, no flashing of the PCM etc for warranty concerns and can...

    New Tire Selection

    I would probably do neither of those things unless you are having strange handling or traction? I would go for the 10 years if the tread wear supports that, you didn't say the miles or type of tire so those can effect it also, its a winter only tire say I would not go for the max. Were the plugs...

    2019 Yukon Denali 6.2L L86 Oil/Filter Recommendation

    I would definately do that early change, and myself I would probably skip the filter. I have several newer vehicles that we are doing a every other filter change on now because they are the top load cartridge type and never seem to have anything on then even after 10K miles, the oil gets RR on a...

    Automatic Stop and Start

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tBJ_J-o-drc These systems suck in my opinion and if you want you can turn off forever.... Also most do not use anything more heavy duty on the componentsu. Whatever nonsense sales people tell you about that might need some research. I Bought a 2019 colorado after...

    Change filter- Garage Queen

    Just do the oil swap spend the extra $$ on a better oil, maybe while you are opening the hood its time to check what the brake fluid looks like? Not that you are going to really flush it out but what stops you from sucking out the contents of the MC and refilling that with new?

    Changing ATF due to age?

    Originally Posted by 2010Civic I'd change it. Change the brake fluid too. Do this, maybe just the brake fluid really, its the one thing your safety depends on the trans fluid not so much. I would do both esp if the trans has just a drain plug and you can avoid the remove trans pan and cover...

    Leaking Windshield, costs to repair

    I paid $600 to have the same type of fix on a cherokee a few years ago, rusted out along bottom not so much top but required a lot of attention. That included a new windshield and gasket installed after and paint to match the body color. I did the silicone thing maybe 5 years before the real...
