I'm in the 200's in my 06 V6 Accord and that transmission sees redline often. I do one drain and fill about every 15k or so. It's had mostly DW1 since new. The last two drain and fills I swapped one quart of Type F in to get sharper shifts. Sharpen the shifts it did. (back when people would...

The problem is you're using junk rattle can products, from the picture it looks like you're putting it on way too thick. Prep is also important. There are some great forums and youtube channels for painting.

I get an equivalent of imron from Napa's paint supply shop. Very durable. I paint wheels with it.

Remember, $8500 in Canadian Pesos. Kind of ashame to maintain a car well and ignore family that want it (unless you know they won't care for it) for some stranger.

All that was done by the previous owners mechanic. That's what surprised me. Does everything but left the old plugs in. I have an old friend that had a service station in the '70s and '80s when all those nylons were failing. He told me it was usually around 80-90,000 miles and the nylon...

I bought a 70 C10, it's a 307 4 speed truck with 39,000 original miles. A friend of mine owned it for over a decade. A rancher ordered it new and used it rarely for trips into town. The truck drove great but I thought the idle was just a little odd. I know it had a complete tune-up not...

I replaced the driver's rear actuator on my mom's 07 CRV. Not that bad of a job if you have good hands. Make sure you reseal the inner plastic liner against the door or you.will end up with water on the floor when it rains heavy. I changed the programming so the doors dont all unlock...

This is a 2001. This truck was consuming more than a quart every 2000 miles. I don't have an ideal measurement because the way it was driven and maintained was inconsistent. I have it classic tagged. The last oil change I did not need to add any oil in about 5000 miles. Maybe it's running...

I checked my old emails and it is a 180°. The prior owner didn't put it in that was after the sale. These trucks have a weird internal PVC system that make them ingest oil vapors that ends up looking like pretty healthy oil consumption which this truck did do. Alot of guys bump the viscosity...

The mileage on these is unknown. My truck has approximately 150,000 miles. I owned it for 5 years but I only drive it 2k miles a year ish. The original owner was a older man and seemed rather meticulous. I don't know what mileage these Autolight XP5245s went in at or if this is a correct...

Just flushed my Silverado with what is probably 7 year old bottles of sealed fluid. Looked nice and clear and clamps great.

Nice. Terminator. I had a red 10th Anniversary. Could throw a little AT205 in there and see what happens

Might be time for my favorite, Mobil 2

I've had good luck with the cheap aftermarket mounts on my v6 accord. They don't absorb as much nvh though so that vibration might not improve... If you have an EX-L it might have the totally unnecessary fluid filled engine mounts that are significantly more money.

Finally that trick pays off for someone. I had a brake line I couldn't crack loose once and I just hit it with a little pb blaster every other day for a couple weeks. Came out easy. Put a pipe or half the jack handle on your breaker bar. Otherwise, anyone make an aftermarket diff cover...

Nice work, now you can hit 300k

GM used them for a long time. My 05 CTS-V had one. 2007 they started disappearing.

I've got an old quart in the shed. Glad it's still around.

No. A local mechanic she was on a first name basis with worked on it for the last 90,000 miles. Place used to be a machine shop and repair shop. Anything she was told it needed it got. She keeps invoices, they hit her for tune ups, suspension work and rotor cut brake jobs, 5k oil changes...

I will. I ordered 2 more OEM coil packs to swap the rear bank out. Not sure if the remaining two are original but they live in a hotter space and on failed already. The front Bank is still all OEM Hitachi. I'll put plugs in it but I believe they're real NGK. I'm in that position of the...
