I would prefer the new Lexus over the used Lexus/Porsche My personal gripe would be knowing that my vehicle is related to a cheaper version from the same umbrella of companies In the case of the new Lexus - I would only see it as a rebadged and facelifted Camry or other Toyota vehicle. In the case o...

As the title says...I have about 50-60k and I looking for the most RELIABLE used car. I had a Nissan Y12 before and was not pleased with how often I had to change parts I'm leaning towards a Toyota Axio 141 for $60k but I hear the transmission and compressor gives a lot of trouble. Any thoughts on ...

Rotary supposed to be reliable... Most just don't know how to care for them.

They also burn fuel like it going out of style

Bosch new formulation brake pads are a disappointment. They switched to this semi metallic like material that leaves a rust colored dust on your rims, on the surface and embedded in the rim in line with the brake disc. They also don't have much life in them after 35000kms; for comparison my original...

Problem if those cells ever catch fire. Gasoline , Cng , Batteries Any of those catches fire is trouble Even the LPG in your house can catch fire and explode like a bomb Fortunately the odds of these things happening is very small Should have said that putting the fire (lithium ion battery) out is ...

More weight is harder to slow down and turn; it is that simple.

It's all based on old horse carriage and wagon wheel trucks of the early to mid 20th century, they were the 'heavy' vehicles of the time. It' just boils down to outdated laws and outdated methods of governing again. Basically because a Ranger etc is capable of carrying what a 'heavy' truck from the...

Doesn't this process add to the wear and tear on the battery pack. In regards to batteries in phones and hybrids/EVs; don't they already provide provisions for you to not fully charge or discharge your battery. Isn't this done by not telling you the exact state of charge. So 100% on your dash or dis...

they should decide to assess and leave it there until off peak time otherwise the inconvenience of hauling it out is stupid The traffic due to the gas tanker yesterday was brutal. Again today with a truck ending up in the drain in the same vicinity. As against the inconvenience of everyone slowing ...

Really wanted to hear what the sky sports analysts were saying about the Gasly near miss. I believe that the FIA should let teams know when there are recovery vehicles/ma...

Use what is recommended in th...

Possible sticking VN turbo vanes due to soot.

About that, you do know that you possibly sent the contaminated fluid back into the abs module/reservoir by pressing it all the way in.

The pictures don't show up anymore. Didn't need compressed air to push the piston out... It was connected to a hydraulic system; remove pads, fill reservoir, and have someone press the brake pedal slowly until it comes out. That is a tough one cause if it still has the original brake pads, and hybri...

Tidbit of advice If your engine has a timing chain, I recommend synthetic oil. Timing chains are generally harder to replace than belts and while they can last a very long time, It is very dependent on how the engine is serviced. Synthetic oil should keep that chain in service longer before it elong...

Cause people want to sell the products that they have. If the aftermarket and the OEM made by the same company would you bother spending more than double just for the name of the car maker on the part. On the consumer side... Limited availability and or very good price.; But this is more to do with ...

Have you bled the brakes or checked how difficult it was too push the piston into the caliper.

That feeling you get that your AC feels like its choking you or you want to sneeze... Yeah it is time to change your cabin filter. Mine was properly dirty after the last 30000kms, however in terms of time, the "19" meant that some years had passed before it was changed. My bad for trackin...

Whatever happened to the orbis ring wheel... To convert single axle drive vehicles to hybrid AWD. They had videos of a demo Civic SI or maybe a type R with the rear wheels adapted. Also keeping an eye on the developments from the folks who used to be called On-point Dyno (think they renamed to mount...

Still expensive and not feasible as technology is still fairly young. And emphasis on bolt on. Like how you can buy aftermarket performance parts and bolt on direct. I believe this is what the future will be, just like how they introduced houses that are basically building blocks you can add on or ...
