Per Consumer Reports magazine 11-15 issue General Altimax RT43 They claim the T-rated have an excellent snow traction and the H-rated have a good snow performance. Dang , I bought the H-rated a few months ago. Knowing the snow performance I would have bought the T-rated, since I live in the...

Did a rockauto order for caliper bolts for my 2004 RAV4 and a great price of $3.50 per caliper. Got two and a Lisle Brake Caliper Brush #13410 for $5.70 ($8.50 on Amazon) since it came from same warehouse for SH. Pleasantly surprise to see the bolts were made in the USA and the box them came in...

Surprised to find my rear brakes had a inner pad down to nothing. Only got 18,000 miles on the Monroe Pads (made in Canada). Akebono ceramic my pad of choice but got the mentioned as a temporary measure at Advance Auto with 20% coupon , paid $20. Installation went OK and ordered the needed...

Read that it looks great on black vehicles which I have. Lucked in and got a free 4 oz sample bottle from Mothers at a car show. It goes on easy and has no smell, I put my nose in the bottle and got a slight spearmint smell. The wax comes off easy and cleanly with no powder. The shine is OK...

CARQUEST Wearever Platinum Professional Ceramic Brake Pads . Akebono pads are my go to for easy of installation and quality. Bought the Wearever at Adavance Auto since I needed a set immediately. Put them on the rear of a Toyota Avalon and they were hard to install. I had to fight and struggle...

Saw them at my local Walmart (Thruway,Cheektowaga,NY) both oil and air. Priced the oil filter for my RAV4 and it's $15 compared to $9 for Fram Synthetic. I'll never buy them.

Got the replacement for my Hankook Optimo H727 in another tread, and was happy to see they were made in the USA. Two tires bought one made in 4th week of 2015, the other 5th week of 2015. Got them online at tirebuyer and the higher rated speed H was $5 cheaper than the T rated speed. Got the H...

Bought 2 front front of Toyota Avalon on 1/03/10. Value stem leaking took off tire and surprised at the wear, will need to replace before winter. Wal Mart claimed tire is dry rotted and they can't replace valve. Cracks where treads are. Got only 22,832 miles on tire, plus dry rotted. Never...

Re-post from another forum, my guess was a head gasket also, due to similar result due to my recent snowblower problem. "Neighbor has an old bobcat mower with very little hours on it. IT has a Kohler Magnum 18 engine. It cranks and runs fine and cuts fine but after about 10 minutes, it starts...

Tag on my new engine. Synthetic oil recommended below 32 degrees F. Change oil after first 5 hours, every 50 hours thereafter. and "DO NOT OVERFILL" My take. It's a no brainer to use synthetic oil in winter. They claim it's 20 oz oil capacity, yet on my old engine after a complete empty and...

Bought the Craftsman in 2002 and the owner's manual claimed it comes in default mode in 2WD but you may use single drive for light snow conditions and better maneuverability. The manual gives the same pic for both conditions and is worthless. 2WD is what I wanted , so I thought I'm good to go...

It was filled with oil. When engine seized found no oil in engine? Big snowstorm in Buffalo with feet of snow. Found that the bottom, oil fill plastic cap?, had come off and all the oil blew out. With feet of snow had no indication it was blowing out. If I buy a replacement I will safety wire...

Should you change your oil every 15,000 miles? Here's how to decide By Steven Lang August 11, 2014 5:00 PM Motoramic There is good news and bad news when it comes to the 15,000 mile oil change — a standard five times longer than those often recommended by the quick-lube merchants. The good...

Placed an order with Metro Toyota (Ohio) online for a few repair parts. Also got two oil filers apiece for the Rav4 and Avalon. Price was $3.99 apiece. Filters feel heavy which I like. Also noticed a clear plastic covering over the business end which I never saw before and also like. Shine a...

Marked as a "new item". Yes, in the 30 feet of shelf space that HD has as their "automotive section", they have the mentioned. $2.99 a quart in 5/30, 10/30 and 10/40. Also car batteries in both Exide Titan and Exide Global and the later has a 40 month free replacement. Think, $100 for a group...

A week ago noticed my local HD (old Thruway Plaza, Cheektowaga) had a small automotive section. Exide automotive batteries, Pennzoil Oil and Michelin Wiper Blades. The battery group 35 was $77 for a 2yr warranty. Wal-Mart charges $104 for a 3 yr warranty group 35. Thought the battery at HD to...

No contest, NY rust belt weather wins. Using Kroil for 2 years and it's OK. Recently soaked some nuts under 10 years SUV for a few days with Kroil hoping to have an easier time removing them, and no luck. It still was a major pain removing them. Found this to be true with Kroil in other past...
