Cars & Transportation - 13 August 2006

I have had my 330i for nine months now and the car has actually been enjoyable to ride. I do have one lingering question even though I have had my car checked twice for any problems and the car had a good bill of health. Is it normal to hear the car downshifting a little louder than usual when slowing down to a stop going 25 to 0?, sounds like a thump sound- like the car is actually adjusting to the torque- the car runs smooth- no other sounds- Im thinking maybe its the differential or a tranny issue- i have no idea- please help Im loosing my mind- or is this normal?

My friend and I are opening a shop that does automotive and marine canvas and upholstery. His name is Steve and I am Ron. The thing is we want to keep it simple to write on checks for our customers. We like the idea of starting it with an "A" so we are listed first in the phone book. We want it to describe our business. Most people ask how to spell "upholstery" and in the industry most of us refer to ourselves as Trimmers but I don't think most people know what a trim shop is. Any advice would be apreciated.

In another countries that do not allow DWIs? For example if a DWI is forbidden in another country would a person with a DWI still be able to drive in Austratlia or the UK? Example Mel Gibson or what if someone killed someone in the USA in a DWI?

I have a 1987 Nissan Sentra as my first car. i am only 15 and dont even have my permit yet. I got the car for free from a friend and didnt mind this little problem. I dont have a lot of money and am not looking to spend more than the car is worth to fix the problem. When i stop at lights the engine stalls and shut off unless i throw the car into neutral. I dont really mind do so i just would like the car to run better so i have less to worry about. Thank you

Robert

This came in during the late 50/ early 60s (I think) when cars on average went about 40mph flat out. Now cars are safet stronger and have better brakes.
100mph would be a bit more like it.
