Up until now, I've just been using regular on an Automatic 2005 tC, but I've recently bought a Injen Cold Air Intake. A friend of mine flipped his wig when I told him I still use regular. Is this a big deal? I mean, I have one performance part. Will using premium really make a difference?

I am looking for a 7 passenger van and I have a 96 Toyota Camry that I could trade with them. The Camry is not in good condition but it is fixable.

I've got a '96 Ford Escort that is burning lots of oil. Its only done 65K. Its burning about a litre every 300 miles! I see masses of smoke when it goes over about 4000 rpm, and a little at lower revs. Is there anything can be done? Its got its MOT next week...

According to the dealership, I had a leak in my steering rack assembly (on the invoice it says "Steering gear/rack") and in order to fix that, it's going to cost about 600 dollars in order to repair the leak. They also said that I needed to get an alignment (30 dollars), a lower ball joint (110 dollars), and because the power steering pump was making noises, they needed to do a power steering flush (99 dollars). In all, it's coming to a total of 1,000 dollars. This seems a little high but I don't know anything about cars so I told them to start the repair work. In case you are wondering, my car is a 2000 lincoln mercury sable and this work is being done at Tuffy's. Any help would be apprecidated!

I was at a dealership this weekend and I was given a car to test drive. The salesman actually told me that the car had already been sold to another person. Is this legal?

I love my fuel sipping 318i. but driving here in california, we're often at the 75-80mph range, at which time the engine is revving at 4000rpm+. seems to me that an additional gear would allow me to cruise at an even more efficient lower rpm.

Obviously what we're doing now isn't working, especially in my state. We have tougher sentencing now, lots of advertising to try to get people to not drink and drive, roadblocks, etc., and they aren't working.

What do you think it will take to really get through to the people who are most likely to drink and drive, and get them to make different decisions and actions?

I went to Huntington Honda dealer in Huntington, NY 11746 and placed the order for brand new vehicle.
Ordered few accessories including 1) Fog Light 2) All Season Mat 3) Cross Bar 4) Cargo Board 5) Backup Sensor
Went to pick up the vehicle on Nov 14, 2005 in the evening.
Gave the cashier's check for the huge amount and some remaining money ($2149) by credit card
Realized next day that the backup sensor were what I ordered. Went through lot of hassle to get it fixed.
Had to dipute credit card charges.
The credit card bank converted the temporary credit that they had given me to a permanent credit.
They send me a letter saying that their investigation is over and that the temporary credit is now a permanent credit.
Under the terms and condition of the my credit card it mentions that if I am not satisfied with the purchase and tried in the good faith to resolve the issue and not happy with the result, I do not have to pay the amount.
Dealership is suing for $2149 on credit card
