Cars & Transportation - 12 November 2006

Does anyone know if there are supposed to be 2 lights on each side when the regular lights are on or just 1. I saw a Mazda 6 the other day and it had 2 lights on, and mine only has 1. I took it to the dealer and he said its normal to have just the 1 working, is he full of crap, and I need to bring it back, or does the 2003 model only have the 1 main light on each side?

Oh no! It was very warm yesterday so I opened the moonroof and then forgot all about it. It rained overnight and the inside of the car got pretty wet. I spent about an hour in my car with a hairdryer, which seems to have helped. But the underside of the front seats are still very wet. Any ideas how I can get the car dry before it gets moldy or mildewed?

I'm looking for a car that'll suit me. I'm a 4'11, 19 year old, female. I have a problem where I can't see over the dashboard in most cars. I'm looking for something where I can push the seat up so I can see over the dashboard.

I'm thinking of buying a 1996 Buick LeSabre with a 3800 engine. I saw and drove at a dealer, who is also a new car dealer. However, I read the engine has a problem with the intake manifold because it's made partly of plastic and tends to burn out and if it does, it will ruin the engine. This car has less than 46,000 miles on it, and the engine is fine at this point. I ran a carfax report on it, and it came up completely clean. However, I don't want something happening soon after I buy it. Otherwise the car is just what I'm looking for. I have a report on on this defective part even though there never was a recall on it. Should I ask the dealer to install an updated part (that is all metal)? Would a dealer tend to go for that? Would it help to show him the report? Since I was going to try to get him to bring down the price anyway, how about if I say I'll buy it at the asking price if they change the part?

I put about 6 litres diesel fuel in my unleaded barina. I asked them to cyphon it but a mechanic working at the service station told me to fill the tank with unleaded and the diesel will dilute and work its way out of the car. It was a bit smoky to start with, but then it began to overheat. Turns out the car was running water through the engine and it had only been running on 3 instead of 4 cylinders.THe mechanic and some RAC staff told me the diesel fuel could not have caused this to happen. I've just spent thousands getting the cooling system fixed is it because of the diesel this happened?

Hey Guys
Anyone know the differences between the 06 and 07 honda civic sedan model? Are there any external or internal design differences or engine upgrades? I know the 07 civic si is extremely hot with a bigger engine but what about the good old sedan.
Help me pick. Thanks
