I found out i need to have my left wheel bearing replaced on a 200 Alero. The estimate was $320. Is this too high for this service?

My daughter's cabrio is leaking condensation on the driver's right foot. I'm thinking that the air conditioner drain line could be stopped up. I need to know how to check for that & how to unstop it. I'm just a mom - not a mechanic by any stretch! Thanks!

Hey,
I bought my car about 2 weeks ago and haven`t got the kerb lowered. As a result i am beginning to feel the tyres need more air. The thing is when ever i go to a petrol station i don`t know how to use those things.. I always end up worst off than i previously was. In other words lose more air from tyres. Does anyone know a way i could put air in and could u please guide me through it as i am useless i once even punctured a whole car tyre in the process. Maybe i need advice from a man as men know better when it comes too cars.
Thank u xx

OK. So, I just discovered last weekend AGAIN how enamored I am with trains. I think they're incredibly romantic (powerful, graceful) - especially the steam engines.

Now, being a novice... Any recommendations on how to start discovering the beauties of these powerful yet graceful giants?

Any books? (trains for dummies?) Illustrated or otherwise? Your thoughts?

The handle snapped off when I went to open the door and I am not sure what I should do to fix this. It is an older model pickup truck and the handle was cheap plastic(I am sure it is not going to be so cheap to fix!!) The truck does not belong to me and I would like to get it fixed ASAP, any suggestions and price guesses would be appreciated.

I awoke with this thought, combining a 2 and four stroke engine, You would have cylinder ports for either inlet or exhaust and valves for the opposite. I was thinking that you could remove some of the valve train drag while offering more head space for valves. Just thinking about how to build lighter more efficient engines, anyone have any ideas or knowledge that this has been tried?

Undergoing big decision. Im coop student with minimal salary...will have 5000 tops by end of summer. Currently have an AE92 GTS corolla with low mileage. Deciding whether i should spend the money on an engine swap, 20 valve blacktop, which would cost around 2000 CDN for the complete swap or an 89 supra Turbo with 3M-GTE stock engine which would cost around 3900. New car? Or Engine Swap?

Hello, my road test is this thursday and i am pretty confident i will pass as i have been practicing for the past two months with an instructor and family. i beleive that i am ready and have even practiced on the road that my test will be conducted on. The other part of me keeps thinking that i will fail. Here in WI you can accumulate no more than 25 pts. The only thing i struggle on is parallel parking. Not necessarily struggling but judging distance in reverse is odd for me. I keep thinking i am going to run up on the curb, that alone would disqualify me. Honestly i am a pretty good driver but my sister says i need to have more confidence in myself. I know the rules of the road but i am constantly second guessing myself. Anyone gone through this? Can you share with me your road test expereince?

One day, my car would not start. I had it towed to a mechanic and they said it was the distributor cap and replaced and gave me the car. It seemed fine, but the next day after broke down on the highway. The engine just cut out, and I could not start it. I waited about 20 minutes and the car started. Brought it back to the mechanic and said just needed to re-tune it, however I am currently having the same issues.
(basically car starts up fine when cold but as soon as it warms up, it starts bucking at higher rpms and will then shut down and will not start until it cools off.) There is no indication of it overheating. The car is 10 years old with 190k miles so I don't want to spend a lot of money on it. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
