    Zerex Asian is finally available in concentrate!

    Trusted Peak Asian Green conc. for my 2001 Subaru and Blue concentrate for my 03 Acura. Used Peak Red conc. for my now totaled '99 Toyota. I'll give this Zerex blue Conc. a try though.

    Retro Sports Sedan comparo

    @SC Maintenance & @dnewton3 I see your point about RWD and 1st Gen Ford Taurus SHO was a legit HOFer in the SS category, (Forget the mules in the subject of the post, because I will now digress) There's one Sports Sedan that we NEVER got over here that most definitely cannot be overlooked...

    Retro Sports Sedan comparo

    (I love older six pot sports sedans and deplore their demise in favor of SUV's and turbo sport compacts) **Let's imagine perfectly working brand new examples WITHOUT any powertrain issues. which would you choose? 2003 Acura TL Type S VS. 2003 Infiniti I35 Sport package.

    Aftermarket Subaru Blue Coolant Ok?

    Peak Asian Blue Concentrate mixed with 1 gallon distilled water in BIG bucket. Cheaper than buying 2 gallon premixed + enough leftover for top offs between drains. DONE.

    Most reliable used simple/basic vehicle

    Should also be able to find an older used Toyota Yaris in that price range too. I heard those are very hardy and well built cars.

    Would you buy a new Mitsubishi?

    Well, my top of the line SEL has leather "seating surfaces". In winter at 38°F weather, that setup doesn't quickly warm up my lower back or big gluteus maximus like a standard non-heated cloth seat would. So yes, those seat heaters are a welcome addition even in the mild winters here, and even...

    A good friend of mine bought an almost fully loaded new RAV4 hybrid AWD and paid close to 45k for it. NO HEATED SEATS! 🤭 Corolla Cross is in the Outlander Sport class and you have to step up to the fully loaded XLE AWD (non hybrid) at over $31k MSRP to get that feature!

    Lets talk about new vehicles

    Now all they have to do is design a way for the oil to drain from the top too! Then they'd have the best user serviceable car in the world!

    Nope. Sport also comes with a 2.4L in the top trim.

    Would you buy a new Mitsubishi?

    I bought a brand new Outllander Sport SEL fully loaded last year. I like the fact that it is old school with port injection, easy access to the oil filter, CVT fluid changes seem to be ridiculously easy when needed at 30,000 miles. Also it has TWO CVT fluid coolers in it, unlike Nissans equipped...

    Vacuum sealing opened RTV sealant tube.

    Ok, so I sealed it up after using it today. @D60 ,@VersysVsWhat and others... We'll have to wait about 3 months or so and recheck. If you're really interested in what happens, set a reminder on your phone for early September and PM me. I'll check it and report back on this thread.

    Pyroil brake parts cleaner review?

    They got 18 oz cans at Ollies closeout store for $3.49. I just picked up 2. It's more product than the store brand 14.5oz can at Wally World which is $3:48 per can. Anyone used it?

    Vacuum sealing opened RTV sealant tube.

    I hate wastage. Had to throw away quite a few tubes of this stuff over the years, because of big jobs few and far in between. Has anyone ever tried this and had success?
