Mine was a tiny silver 2 door 1980 Honda Civic Hatchback. It was bought in 1993 for college. Man, that car could go forever on a tank of gas!

I have a 2007 Mercedes-Benz R500, and I was wondering if I had to use some special kind of coolant in it or if i can just use regular coolant. Please dont answer if you dont know or are guessing. The damn car cost me 78 grand and I dont want to know how much it is to have repaired.

Our fairly well maintained (at 175K miles) 1998 Ford Escort (2.0 Split Port Engine) was just serviced and passed California smog. Recently (less then 5000 miles) the timing belt failed and was replaced. Now suddenly the car only marginally starts and makes a loud clanging noise from the top of the engine. If you give it gas it does seem like igniton happens but the noise is so bad you wouldn't want to let it run. It sounds like a super loud diesel engine. This is all while the car is in park, so I assume it isn't a transmission problem. All the fluids are good, it doesn't look damaged and the oil seems to be oil, and coolant is coolant. It's been a good car that I want to keep, but I wonder if maybe it's run it's course? Obviously the problem is serious, but keep the car serious? Or not? Any thoughts from those who might know better on the problem? Or the history of high mileage Ford Escorts?

I own a 1994 Honda Prelude SI (auto). When I brake the taillight's dont get brighter. They do turn on fine when I turn the lights on but just doesnt get brighter when I brake. Nor does my tail light on my spoiler turns on either. I've replaced the bulbs just incase, and that seems to not be the problem. I replaced the brake light switch under the brake pedal and im still at step one with no results. Now its come to a wiring issue or something, i've no clue. Shed some light please. Im too broke to take it to a shop atm. Thanks

My motorcycle was running just fine up until wednesday when I had my last ride. I was driving it pretty fast and I thought I had in 4th gear and tried to change to 5th, the thing is it was already in 5th... when I did that it suddently lost a lot of power and since then it has been that way. When the bike is in neutral it has its normal acceleration, but once I put in 1st it looses power. Could anybody tell me whats is possibly wrong? I got a Honda VTR250...

I just got my plates and discovered that my car doesn't have a spot to put the front plate on. I'm not so keen on drilling holes myself. I've seen other CT cars without a front plate so I'm wondering if it's required or optional to have the front plate.

WHen you're stopped on an incline with a manual transmission, your car tends to move down because of the force of gravity. How can you avoid hitting the car behind you and how would u manuevre out of this fix?

In what cases should I turn off the O/D, which is what overdrive? It automatically starts in the on position with the vehicle, and there is a button on the gear shift that can turn it on/off. What is its purpose?

I bought the car used a few months ago. I drive 20 miles to and from work each day, and overall it's been a great car. It had been running fine, but now there are some slight problems.

1) When I turn on the air in any way shape or form, a strange odor comes from the vents.

2) The thermostat keeps on indicating that my car is overheating, so when I turn on the heat full blast (and bear with the smell) to take some of the heat off the engine, it says it lowers the temp, but it then fluxs. It's never constant. The thermostat had been constant low until last week.

3) Sometimes when I apply the brakes, I hear a small squeal - this does not happen all the time.

I have a small budget at the moment, and don't have the money to buy a brand new car, nor to buy all new parts to repair whatever may be wrong with my car.

If you know what could possibly be wrong with my car and how I can get it fixed, your help would be greatly appreciated!
