We have airplanes, jets, boats, oceanliners,subs,space ships motor bikes, cars,jeeps,trains,monorails,,jet skis,helium air balloons,horses, camels, oh so many more types of transportation, I can`t name them all, nor do I know them all, But do you think you could add to the list another way for transporting people, where if you were to mkt. it that people would rush out to buy it? what would it feature to make it a 'gotta have one"?

I only ask since I know cars with turbo and superchargers get better gas mileage but I don't know to what extent. This would not be a car I would be driving every day of the year. It would be a summer only car to keep it in the best condition possible (i.e. keep it away from salt on the streets to melt the snow, etc. during the winter months).

After letting up off the brakes, I reach about 25 miles per hour and this regular drrh. drrh. drrh. sound starts. there are no noises when turning, only when going straight ahead. had lower ball joint and wheel bearings on front passenger side replaced by a shop. Afraid the races weren't replaced though. Still under warranty. Had the drivers side wheel bearings replaced shortly after. Is there a way to verify the work of the shop if this sound is being caused by one of these components. Sounds like the noise was coming from passenger side front.

I recently had my timing belt changed for my Protege, Mazda. After having it changed and one week later, there seems to be a loud belt grinding noise after the car has been driven for at least 15 minutes or so. After the engine is shut off and cools for a hour or so and then restarted, the noise is no longer there, until the car is driven again for at least 15 minutes and the noise then reoccurs. However, when the engine is cool and at idle, I can hear some mildly soft sqeaking noises..... What can possibly be the problem and how serious is this problem? Could my timing belt be too tight? The timing belt, tensioner, and idler controler were all changed already.
Oh yes, before my timing belt was replaced, it jumped because the tensioner was loose. Before the timing belt jumped, it was making this exact same noise as now, which is a loud slapping grinding noise. Any help will be much appreciated!
