Cars & Transportation - 18 August 2006

I am thinking of buying a porsche boxster, but I couldn't believe how loud the engine was.
I know that's part of the "sporty" feel & due to the placement of the engine, but it really is rather annoying. Do you get used to it?
Also, does it get worse over time (like in 10yrs is everyone going to turn & look at me going down the street?? that would be embarrassing.) thank you.

I recently bought a used vehicle and only after having it for a week, I find out that I need to have major repairs done to it. Unfortunately I bought it with no warranty. Can I do anything or am I stuck?

My attorney says their insurance Nationwide denied my claim cos the person who caused the accident was not on the policy, even if they live in the same household as the policy holder. Is this legal? What are the rules around this?

I have in all my years never heard of these cars. This must be good brown acid when they put this category together. What about Cadillac or many other cars that have relevance. Does this car mow soccer fields or plant seeds because in my mind it does not exist. Yeah i picked up a date in Mah... something. My guess you got no hot lovin that night. What the hell is it???

There is a process for removing the spindle bolt that hold the rotor on. Does any one know how it is done? It is simular to removing the tire bolts.

Has anyone used the Subaru Cooler/Warmer thing? Look half-way down this page:

http://www.subaru.com/shop/accessories.jsp?model=OUTBACK&trim=25I_WAGON&category=INTERIOR

I've got a 15% off coupon and I'm thinking about buying this container, but I'd like to know how well it works. I'm primarily interested in the cooling function.

Thanks in advance.

Anybody have a clue what could cause that? It happens whether the car is moving or idle, and whether or not the wheel is turning.

Just pushing on the accelerator causes it, and the harder you push, the louder and higher the noise is. It isn't real loud, but definitely noticeable.

We tried adding more power steering fluid, and replaced the power steering unit, because it sounds just like the noise you will get if you cramp the wheel to right or left and strain the power steering unit. But the noises persists.

It has a digital odometer & speedometer, and that crazy DCL that only works about 1/4 of the time. We bought the car used at a great price, it has 130,000 miles, but still runs pretty well, other than just a few annoying problems that are hard to solve.

I currently have a 2005 pontiac G6 which is a pretty nice car but the payments are a little high. I was looking into getting a Scion TC but it would only save me a little over $100 per month and I would be paying on it for two more years. I really wanted to get the TC a couple of years ago but they were so hard to find. The TC does get better gas mileage and is a little cheaper but then I would pay for two more years. What would you do??????????

My dad is making drive his car; or what i like to call it the beast. Which scares the living day light out of me, I have no idea why. I have always been afraid of it. One reason why is becuase its manual. I have only driven once, I understand the whole changing gears. I just get confused witht he clutch. Do I have to keep the clutch pressed down the entire time or only when I change gears. Any tips would help.
