    Entered the Sonos ecosystem. Pretty hard to swallow the prices.

    Wasnt sure what to expect. I started with a pair of Era 100s. Added a sub mini 3 days later. Already in over $1000CDN. It sounds great. Im only using them for music at the moment in my living room. If I expand it'll be a pair of Era 300 in the living room and move the 100s to the kitchen...

    Should hybrids be using high moly oil?

    My hybrid toyota calls for 0w16. Ive been using 0w20 in the spring summer fall and 0w16 only in the winter. Kirkland 20 and Pennzoil 16. If toyota oil was cheaper where I am I would probably use their 0w16 year round though due to the high moly. Would the increased moly benefit a hybrid that...

    parking car for 20 days outside

    Im starting a new job. 20 days on, 10 off. Ill be leaving my minivan in an outside secured lot 20 days at a time. My concern is mostly the fuel. I don't want to store it with a full tank because I'll never burn a full tank in the 10 days off. So would a 1/4 tank be fine? This is in Edmonton...

    Does MMO burn off in the crankcase?

    I put about 500ml of MMO in my 5qt engine. Runs fine. Before filling I replaced my oil pan gasket. I've since lost about 1/2 litre according to the dipstick. 800 kms driven. No oil below. This van has never burned oil either. I'm thinking it's the Marvel Mystery Oil burning off. I thought I...

    Help with rear ac block off.

    I have a rear line leak in my minivan. A rear ac block off kit is a simple remedy to this otherwise expensive repair. My problem is that right now my ac lines are 1/2 filled with hydrocarbons. In canada we can't buy r134 so most popular ac refill from can is r12a. I can't get this evacuated...

    What would a missing egr valve gasket cause?

    I've been missing mine for awhile. Just had my car smoke tested and sure enough a leak is there. Can't fix until the weekend. Curious if this could cause stumbling acceleration once in a while or anything else? I'm referring to the metal gasket between egr valve and engine.

    Trans runs better in severe cold...

    My trans(4 speed auto in a 2009 Grand Caravan) has been running much smoother since this -30c cold spell has started where I live. Less harshness in gear changing. It doesn't really run terrible in hot weather but definitely jerky sometimes. I assume this is because the ATF +4 has a higher...

    MPG decrease in very cold weather??

    I'm kinda new to driving and was wondering what kind of penalty I can expect in extremely cold weather(-20c sustained)? Drives are typically 15mins or less. I replaced my lower intake manifold gasket and though performance has returned fuel economy has slightly dropped. It's only been a 1/2...
