My friend has a chevy lumina who when she comes to a stop the car shakes badly. She just had the tranny rebuilt and new brakes. I'm guessing the transmission mount is loose? What's your thoughts?

When I am trying to pull a skier and I punch the motor it seems to hesitate for one to two seconds before gaining full power, is this normal?

When the brakes are applied on a 1999 Toyota Sienna, there is a horrific grinding noise. A pretty loud grinding noise. My strong belief is that the brakes are well past their useful life, and have probably been driven to the point where the repair is going to be expensive.

So, now, before I take it into a shop and "trust" someone to diagnose and repair the problem, I am wondering if I can pull the wheels and see how much damage is involved. Is there anyone who can give me a laundry list of items to look at, what okay/not okay looks like, and... maybe even a very rough cost magnitude if it is known?

For what it is worth, I am not a mechanic but I can easily get a jack take a wheel off and look at things. It sure would be nice to know something when I am dealing with an auto repair shop. At the moment, I am a sitting duck for a dishonest garage.

Be honest. Sometimes I think I look like a snob, which I don't want to, I just like how the car drives and how comfortable it is.

So true story, I live in New Jersey, so someone pumps my gas for me, and at the gas station today I only had a ten. I specifically asked for 10$ regular cash, and even (like I always do) held the bill out for the guy. He didn't take it immediatley, and ste the pump for fill. I didnt realize this untill it got to about $23. I did not have that much cash on me, and after much argument with the guy I ended up charging it to my credit card because they wouldnt let me leave. (sonething I did NOT want to do.) I've only been driving like, a year and a half, so that's never happened to me before, and I had no idea what to do. Should I call the manager of the place and demand my money back (I guess it's too late now) Or what should I (or what would you) have done in the situation?

Sure the Czech Republic-division of VW is more common throughout Europe, but...

Really, it would be just as fun seeing a Octavia on the streets of Pasadena(CA), than on Prague's main street...

Ok, heres the deal, I have a 1985 honda aero scooter. It was running sluggish so about two weeks ago, I tuned it up, i cleaned the air filter, ran some carb cleaner/ injector cleaner/fuel additive thru it, and put in a new spark plug. It ran fabulous! For about a week and a half. Then i started it (started just fine) tried to give it some gas and it killed it. Started again, this happened 3 times. Now it wont even turn over! What the hell is wrong now? Help me before I drive it off a cliff!
