Had my car for 90 days, purchase from Carmax dealership, not the Pontiac delership currently doing my repair. First week the 2001 firebird had to have engine coils replaced from carmax. Then I complained about the transmission. Carmax told me they had it checked totally out that week, "just a tight tranny they said" and that it was fine. That was in week 3. Now my car is in the pontiac delearship shop and needs a rebuilt transmission. Can I get any money back? Its only been 90 days or so, and the Pontiac delership is saying that someone, presumably car max, has been in my tranny.

I heard that M&M are launching a 'lighter' scorpio with a smaller engine. Presumably this will be cheaper as well. Do you know when this launch is likely to happen, and at what price?

I have two 1978 cars that need restoration. Junk/sell it or restore? Camaro z-28 and Buick regal. Almost 30 years old, both are original owner cars. The Regal has been a lowrider and a hot rod (not at the same time) in its better days.

I have an '06 Chevy Cobalt that has this oil-life feature. I drove it about 5000 miles since my last oil change and it said I still had 37% oil life left. My dad is of the opinion that oil absolutely needs to be changed every 3000 miles, or the engine is going to blow up the day after the warranty expires. Are cars just made to use oil longer than the ones my dad learned to work on, or should I still change it very 3000 miles?

1998 BMW E39 528i Auto Trans, 170,000 miles, Temperature gauge stays in middle when driving in city, highway, mountains with A/C on. But today after 15 miles of city driving, I stopped in parking lot for 10 minutes, engine running, transmission in Park with A/C on, and the temperature gauge went in red zone (red light came on). I should have turned the car off, but I had a feeling that once I started driving, the temp gauge needle will go to middle and it surely did go back to middle all the 15 miles of city driving back home.
I checked and there are no leaks, coolant reservoir is full, both fans (front and back) of radiator are running (when car in Park with A/C on).
Waterpump, thermostat (cooler temp type), and coolant were replaced about 2 years ago. So, what else can cause the overheating when in Park ??

The dealer told me that the car would pass california emissions despite the fact that the same car in Cali would be purchased with a different "PZEV" emissions standard. I really get the impression that the dealer is being dishonest with me when he says that all mazdas would pass california emissions. If this is the case, then why sell a different model in california? Thanks for your answers!

I need some help with my ingition coil on my 86 Dodge Ram 50.
According to my repair manual the primary resistance should be 1.2
ohms, I measured 1.4 ohms. The secondary should be 17.0K ohms, I
measured 16.36K ohms. Ballast resistor should be 1.35 ohms, I measured
1.7 ohms. Should I replace the coil?? The darn thing is suddenly
missing like crazy. The plugs, wires and distributor cap have been
recently replaced.
