    Meguiar's Quik Interior Detailer Cleaner

    What can I say besides this stuff is magic in a bottle. I've had my Fusion for a little over 3 years and it really hasn't had a good wipedown. I've used dry microfiber every month or so, but all that did was push around the dirt. I tend to drive with my windows down so needless to say, the dash...

    Anyone else leary of washing Microfiber in their washing machine?

    After thinking about how some of the products out there can stand up to caustic automatic car washes, I'm a bit apprehensive to wash MF in my own washing machine. Whether the MF is saturated with Nu Finish, Seal and Shine, Megs Ceramic Spray, polymer sealants, etc...I just do not get a warm and...

    2017 Jeep Cherokee 4x4 Low Speed Turn Vibration

    Looking at buying a 2017 Jeep Cherokee 4x4 with 36,200 miles. At times, when turning left or right at a slow speed you can feel a vibration throughout the vehicle coming from the drivetrain. If I go into a parking lot and turn in forward circles with the wheel at its stop (L or R), I always...

    Ford Quick Lane Oil Change Review

    So, after 4 months and 7000 miles on the 17 Fusion I figured it was time to collect my free oil change from the dealership (even though there was 33% left on the OLM). I went back to the Ford Dealership I purchased the car from and they have a separate Quick Lane building on the premises. I...

    Brand New 2017 Fusion 1.5L : 2 issues

    I picked this car up about 4 weeks ago and have been fairly happy with it, especially coming from an 11 year old Mazda 3. The toys and tech on it still leave me giddy because my Mazda had none of it. (Paddle shifters are useless though.) There are two main issues with the car and yes, I'm...

    Looking at Used 2015 Fusion / Need pricing advice

    Well, my 2007 Mazda 3 has finally reached the point where it doesn't make any sense to keep dumping money into it. Needs about $900 worth of suspension work, a new AC condenser, and after 175,000 miles the clutch is starting to slightly slip. Car is only worth around $1200-$1500. I found a 2015...

    The Quest for G-05

    I cannot believe what I just went through to find 2 gallons of G-05. I hit Wally World, KMart, Target, Meijers, AutoZone, O'Reilly's, Advance Auto, Pep Boys. NONE of these companies had it. The "Flavor of the Week" at all those stores? All Makes/All Models/No Thanks. Finally stopped by a NAPA...

    Just did water decarbonization on Mazda 3

    WOW!!!!! My 2007 Mazda 3i has 42,000 miles on it. I have owned the car 3 years next month. The car has seen a steady diet of FP60, Regane, Lucas UCL, and MMO (obviously not all at once). I decided to do a water decarb to see if there was any difference in the car. Took her out for a short 15...

    It's tire time! Recommend for Taurus and Mazda 3

    I couldn't have timed this any better. Both cars are due for tires. 1. 2002 Ford Taurus. Currently have 4 year old TripleTreads that are developing hairline cracks in the sidewall. They are also almost down to the wear bars. I hate these tires. They were great to start but soon turned into...

    2007 Mazda 3 weird harmonic noise

    Had this problem start up earlier in the year and I can't figure it out. Starting at about 20mph, I hear a harmonic, rhythmic sound emanating from the front of the car. It increases in frequency the faster the car goes. At first I thought the tires were out of balance. Nope, sound remained...

    What's the verdict on B-12 Chemtool?

    Has anyone sucked it up via a vacuum line ala Seafoam? Seems like it would be a stronger cleaner than Seafoam, but at what cost?

    Pinging just started today. 2007 Mazda 3i 2.0L

    ARRRRGGGHHH!! Out of the blue, my 2.0L engine just started pinging today under light loads. 18,000 miles on the engine. Car has seen mostly FP60 and some Lucas UCL runs in the tank. This tank I added Regane and I'm at the tail end of the tank. Also tried the Italian Tune Up to knock the carbon...

    Star Wars Trumpet Queen, this is worse than crack

    Princess Leia (aka Stacy Hedger, Miss Douglas) I've watched this more than 20 times today and I can't stop. The best part is when she goes all Chaplin.

    Another Mazda 3 rant

    Inspired by Buster's post on the 3's dipstick, allow me to add another rant. I have a 2007 3i with the 2.0L and MT. The A/C is the WORST of any car I've ever owned. It simply cannot cool effectively. Which doesn't make sense since the car has a small interior space. The other day, the air temp...

    6HP B&S hard to keep running (also surges)

    This is a 2002 Craftsman mower. Just a month ago, the engine started "surging". You could hear it rev up and down continuously while mowing. Now the darn thing will barely stay running. I changed the plug at the beginning of this year. When I checked the plug yesterday, it was blacker than black...

    Need to fix foam gasket on airbox.

    The stick-on foam gasket on my Taurus airbox isn't sticking-on anymore. What would you guys suggest for a more permanent fix? Anything silicone based?
