Cars & Transportation - 25 July 2006

The car is a used (53,000 miles) 2000 Volvo S40. After it was jumped, the car started fine. I tried several times throughout the day and it was still fine. This morning, same thing - fine. I am nervous that it will stop running because I drained too much of the battery. How can I tell? Should I just go buy another battery? Where is the best place to get one?

The panel configuration has three knobs directly under the radio.The left knob is the blower speed on an Off,1,2,3,4,5 scale, the middle knob is the temp selector, and the right knob is the directional selector. And On the right of that, I have the A/C and the rear defrostor button. When I turn the directional selector. The A/C button light comes on and a weak cold air blows in. But when I turn the fan knob, the hot air starts blowing in.

I've always heard my dad say that he wouldn't take a 4 cylinder car if it was free but I never got a clear answer on what is so bad about a 4 cylinder car.

My dad wants to sell his 1966 Chevy Chevelle Malibu. I looked in Edmunds, Autotrader, Kelley Bluebook and Googled but I can't seem to get a solid price range for his type of car. For most sites, it's too old to be listed. Other sites are specialty sites that deal in souped up Chevys (completedly modified for muscle and speed). So the price varies from $3000 for parts/major restore to $40,000 to super tricked SS models. My dad's car is pure stock with all original parts and has been basically garaged for the last 30 years. He only drove it occasionally basically to keep it running. What do you think is the best way to find the reasonable selling price that will sell within reasonable time, like week or two?

Planning on doing some off roading with my 4Runner this fall and am wondering if a 4 ton double-line come along is good to bring along for an occasional extraction? Or, is a Hi-Lift Jack a better solution? Where I am going, I would envision the possibility of getting stuck in mud. I'm not trying to winch myself up and over rocks or anything like that.

When Im driving at over 30mph my front right wheel starts humming. What could it mean. Do I need the tires rotated, the rotor checked, any ideas.

If I am in a right turn it stops humming, if Im in a left turn it hums louder.

Its a 1996 VW Golf in pretty good condition and just over 100K miles.

Thanks
