Can anyone help me on this. My 1999 Maza Millenia car displayed Check Engine light on all of a sudden. I took to have this checked by a local mechanic who told me to take this to the dealer. Is this true and if it is is this very expensive to fix this. He mentioned that there could be something defective with the sensors. HELP with your answers is most appreciated.

I have a 1997 Mits Eclipse, RS, 4 cylinder; and after 10 years of having this baby, it's starting to act up. The problem is when I start my car, it starts up fine, but then as I start to reverse or drive off, it cuts out. When I do get it started and drive off, I have to keep my RPM over 1000 to keep the engine alive. When I come to a stop, the engine will cut off. Can anyone help me please? I know it's time for a new car, but I need to get this one fixed until I can get a new one.

The car I am interested in was posted over three months ago on the listings online. Within the next couple of days, however, the postings expired and had been taken down, so I thought that the car had been sold because the ad was never put back up. But at the beginning of this week, I saw that same exact car up on the listings again. I asked my dad to call the familiar number and so he did. The guy he talked to--he said sounded like a teen, so he meant he was young-- said upfront to my dad that he didn't have any papers for the car. I honestly don't know what this means and my mom said that that could be why the car hasn't been sold yet... after almost 4 months. It seems like a really good car-- low miles, pretty good-looking...and the guy even said that we could go and take a look at it...so what do you think? I have no clue what to think so thanks for any advice or input you have. I appreciate it!

Okay, most people could tell you in a heart beat what they like about riding a motorcycle, but I want to know some of the negatives before I get my first bike. Give me some of the cons of riding both racing and harley style bikes. Include some of the reasons you like it too if you want! thanks

I was wonding if anyone knew of a good salvage yard in the Detroit area, I was in a fender bender (literally) and need to find a driver side fender for my mustang. But all the ones I've called so far only have passenger side fenders. Ebay and all that is too expensive, so I'm hoping to pick one up locally. If anyone can help I appreciate it!

My husband accidentally side swiped my friend's car when coming out of the driveway. Our deductable is $500. The estimates are ranging from 900-1200. The problem is, will our insurance go up a lot if I report it? My husband has a clean record, no other accidents.
Thanks.

I am a 42 yr old lady and I ride my bicycle. I am hoping that some generous person can donate a car so I do not have to ride my bike in the winter again. I am financially struggling so I can not afford to buy one. I live in SLC, Utah. So if any one has a car that runs and would like to get rid of it, I would GREATLY appreciate the donation.
