    2016 VW Beetle Classic Transmission

    We just bought a 2016 VW Beetle Classic 1.8 TSI, I was looking through the maintenance schedule and didn't see any scheduled maintenance for the automatic transmission, only the DSG. Does anyone know what transmission is in the car? Is it an O9G? Would that transmission not be serviced at 60K...

    2013 Focus ST Castrol Edge with TI 5w30 6732 miles

    Previous fill was from the dealer. I assume it's Motorcraft 5w30, but I don't think NA is a additive in Motorcraft oil so it might have been Valvoline. It had a Motorcraft filter on it and it was purchased at a Ford Dealer. I went back with the same oil and Motorcraft filter. Car has a MRBP cat...

    Duragloss 101

    Based off the reviews of this product on Bobistheoilguy, I tried it and I can't believe how well it holds up. I've had the truck washed at the carwash 2 times and hand washed it 2 times in the last 2 months and it still beads water like a champ. So my next question is. Do any of you put any kind...

    09 Ford Escape Trans leak

    We have a 09 Escape 2.4L FWD with 42k on it and it has developed a transmission leak in the last 6k. It's coming from the drivers side and looks to me like it's the drivers side out put axle seal. Does anyone know if this is a common point of a leak on this vehicle? Is it coming from some where...

I understand the shift firmness and line pressure setting stuff. What I don't really understand is the torque converter lock up settings. I have the...

    I have to oportunity to buy a real nice 05 F150 Supercrew XLT 4x4 with 55k miles from a good friend one owner for 14k. He's in a tight spot and needs it paid off. Are there any problems with the 5.4L and tranny combo other than the spark plugs breaking off in the head that may make me think of...

    Cabin air flow

    We have a 02 Pontiac Grand Prix GTP and the cabin air flow is really bad. It doesn't have a cabin air filter to change that I'm aware of so my only option is to clean (blow out/wash out) the heater core. Has anyone done this on this car? Is it even possible without completely dismantling the...

    Has anyone actually experienced clutch slip with auto oil, like a 5w30 or 10w30? And by changing the oil to a not friction modified oil did the clutch slip go away?

    2006 HHR oil amount

    I bought a used 2006 HHR LT2 2.4L and did my first oil change last night. When I drained the oil out it appeared to be quite a bit of oil, the owner’s manual says it takes 5 quarts, it looked like 6 to me based of the level in my drain pan. So I put 5 quarts of M1 5w30 in it and backed it off...
