    Beatles Finally Available Via Streaming Services

    As a lifelong Beatlemaniac and subscriber to Amazon Prime and Apple Music, this is very big news and an early Christmas gift! I was exposed to the Beatles at the age of 5 by my oldest brother and I have never found any other musical act since that can compare in any way. Although I have all of...

    Honda Civic Type R 2016

    Just read that Honda will finally be releasing the Civic Type R in the US. Usually every other country gets that model except here. I hope it's not an April Fools Day joke because the pics look awesome. Anyone else heard the same?

    My buddy is looking into purchasing a used Honda Civic with 78k miles on the engine. He said that the dash vibrates excessivley whenever the AC is turned on. When the AC is off, there is no vibration. What do you folks think it could be that is causing this? TIA.

    Steering Wheel Locks When slowing Down

    My friend has a 2008 Hyundai Sonata GLS w/AT. She has had several scary moments regarding her steering wheel locking up as she is coming off of the freeway and starting to slow down. It doesn't happen all of the time but it has happened about a dozen times in the past year. Thankfully it has...

    5W30/0W20 Blend Ok for 5W20 Recommendation?

    My Honda is speced for 5W20 but is back-speced to accept 0W20 as well. I was pondering whether to blend 2.5qts of 0W20 with 2qts of 5W30 (NAPA synthetic oil). Do you guys see any issue with this blend? Only reason I was even thinking of doing this is because I have a case of 0W20 and a case of...

    Water heater pilot light won't stay lit

    Went to take a shower this morning and boy was that water cold! Checked the water heater in the garage and noticed no flame. Turned it off and waited several minutes before trying to re-light the pilot light. It lights but when I release the button it goes out again. Thermocouple issue perhaps?

    Car Hesitates At Stops When Cold

    But it doesn't stall. When it's warmed up it runs fine (after 5 minutes or so of steady driving). Also noticed a hissing sound from driver's side of the engine (and fuel smell). I'm thinking the Intake Manifold Gasket may need replacing. What do you guys think? It's a 95 Acura Legend with 140k...

    Acura Legend Pulls to the Left

    Hi everyone. Here's my issue: My Legend pulls to the left regardless of whether I'm driving or braking. I have had the alignment done as well as tire rotation and balancing. The guys that did the alignment said that it may be that I need new struts (but they seem fine and are fairly new. No...

    2008 Hyundai Sonata Temp Loss of Power Steering

    My friend's Sonata (4cyl, AT, 75k miles) has a temporary loss of power steering when coming off of the freeway. This has only happened a handful of times in the past year and it only lasts a couple of seconds. It happens while braking thankfully, so she is already slowing the car down anyway...

    Right turn/signal light not working on trailer

    They work when hooked up to the Saturn Vue but not on the Ridgeline so it's not the trailer itself. All other lights work fine on the trailer when hooked up to the Ridgeline except for the hazards. Any ideas what it could be? Connectors/pins? Fuse? Ridgeline is the RTX that came with the tow...

    What to mix with Rotella T6 in Acura Legend

    I'll be changing the oil in my Legend and was wondering since I have the gallon jugs of Rotella, what should I use to top it off with. In other words, 4 quarts of Rotella and 1 quart of another oil. My Legend calls for 5w-30 and the Rotella is 5w-40. I have various other brands in my stash...

    1995 Acura Legend

    Hi everyone. I just purchased a one owner 95 Acura Legend with 123k miles. There doesn't seem to be a leak of any kind and it doesn't seem to consume oil either. It runs nice but does seem to shift hard from first to second. Do you think I should just stick with my favorite oil (PYB) at the next...
