    Do new cars require rust protection?

    Hello all 👋🏻 I live in a very rust-prone area (near the sea, roads are always salted, constant rain and wind) I ordered a new Mazda 3. Do new cars require underbody rust protection? PS: I don't plan to keep this car more than 10 yrs

    "Stellantis" will encompass many major global brands, among them Fiat, Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, Ram, Peugeot, Citroen, and Opel.

    apparently opels are just rebadged peugeots now :D stellantis tries hard at selling the same thing by underlining germanness of the brand (much like the way liqui moly tries to sell its products)

    Why are all phones gigantic?

    I had a Samsung Galaxy S3 Mini which was 4" which was quite sufficient for my needs (messaging, google maps, occasional browsing and watching how-to videos) I guess I am in the minority that would buy a phone under 5"

    Home Made Windshield Washer Fluid

    That's why I would imagine it's best one buys a ready made product like shell's Screenwash. İf one does not much care about the paint then sure...DIY all the way with isopropyl or methyl alcohol mixtures 🤡

    sure, there are official suppliers here (not online retailers). their markup is insane. called couple of them. +80% than the price online. guess i'll cough up. better than living in paranoia.

    New Motul Lineup

    i am actually thinking of getting lukoil this time. main reason being they sell straight from their website (a lot of counterfeits here. especially if you buy online) for my diesel astra, lukoil recommends this dexos2 oil. how does it compare to Motul 8100 X-clean EFE 5W-30?

    Turbo shaft lubrication in auto start/stop systems

    In a vehicle which has a turbo and an auto start/stop system, how is the turbo shaft kept lubricated when the system shuts off the engine? (since the turbo will keep spinning after the engine is shut off) Is there an electric motor that keeps the oil pump running?
