Cars & Transportation - 8 August 2006

We live in a townhouse complex, we keep the bike on our back porch that is screened in, we went on vacation last week, we have one of those things that makes noises when you open the door, that was on the screen door and it was locked, my husband also had a lock around his bike that locks up the wheel (i really don't know what this stuff means he just tells me) but anyway we have a cover but he didn't put it on (dummie) somebody cut the screen unlocked the door and tried to cut through the lock which was unsuccessful thank God, he's going to put a padlock on the back screen door so nobody can just open the door and take the bike out, does anybody have any other suggestions? i mean its practically brand new, he got it last year and i do not want it to get stolen

There was nothing wrong with it when we stopped using it. I suspect I should change the oil and flush the radiator before trying to start it. Anything else? Thanks -

I purchased a vehicle January of this year when the gas prices were less then $2 gallon. Now gas has risen more then 50% since then and I'm ready to ditch my vehicle because its a little bit of a gas guzzler. Before you start preaching, while i knew the MPG wasn't that great, i did need the size vehicle at the time, but now, gas savings has taken precedence over size. That being said, has anyone been successful in getting out of their lease when then still had a way to go on their lease term? What is the best, most inexpensive way to get out of an Auto lease? please help.

it's leaking and i'm wondering if oil leaks on a 1989 mercedez benz can be repaired (even if only temporarily) by clearing the oil then adding some kind of seal? is it possible to do it myself? what is the sealer called?

if i can seal this leak, the car can be saved so please help!!!

The pinging increases when I give it throttle and is very light during idle. I checked the oil and am fine. Other than that I am completely out of ideas. I don't know much about bikes so please help!!!

I have only had the 85 Intruder since Feb. Put 4500km on it. It is a little small for my long legs. Getting a nice newer 04 V Star. But.............what if I ride the Yamaha and still miss the Suzuki?

The Suzuki is my second bike. I do still have the first one, a 78 Honda CB400A.

Please don't be rude when you reply to my question. I guess this means a long journey, but correct me if I am wrong even you can give me an example with long-haul.
Thank you

I just got the front brakes replaced on my car. From the shop I drove it 20 miles on the freeway. When I got off and was stopped I noticed they were smoking (not bad, just a little) then I parked and they were still smoking a bit. Is this normal? Is my car safe to drive?

My car had hiccups specially wen in low gear, i took it to a mechanic who looked under the bonnet whilst i reved it then told me to bring it in on monday (this was friday) i told him i didnt wanna break down on the freeway over the weekend, he assured me i wouldnt, i took it in and it was fixed in a few hours. Im happy with that and happy to pay him the $80 but he refuses to tell me what was wrong with it?? just keeps saying ' oh it was my magic touch etc" im happy to pay even if it was a simple thing but wats his game?
