I've washed my car several times, will not come off. I believe it's dried paint but I'm not positive. I've picked at it with my fingers but it won't come off. It's a 2001 Infiniti I30. Thanks for any help.

right I was driving down the motorway tonight when my car started to sway towards the left not under my control . I was in lane1 and doing 60 so breaked and still I kept swerving uncontrollably towards the right. I figured it was more than just the wind so stopped at the hard shoulder. I had one tyre replaced the other week..and although the same spec it is not the same make. I attributed the loss of control of steering to this. However the sub contractor who came out drove my car to a works unit road and said my car was fine and I should get back on the motorway. Would you do that or insist on recovery truck to tow u home?

I left the lights on and after 4 hours the car was completlly dead. Someone told me that my battery must be week, because it usually takes longer, Does anyone know how long a cars battery will usually last if you leave the lights on?

(p.s. the car is a '93 honda civic)

***ONE: If a you're buying a used car with a good amount of miles: I heard if you replace the timing belt, the balance belt must (or really should) be replaced as well. Does this sound resonable? Obviously it's good to have everything you can replaced and upgraded, but let's talk common sense.

***TWO: Also, if I had a leak in two spots (I think crankshaft and camshaft) and they were replaced and on the receipt it says they were... my other mechanic says (without looking in the car) that not EVERYTHING was fixed there because apparently these two other parts shoulda also been replaced and since it wasn't on the receipt they weren't. Idk. I don't except you to understand this half of the question unless you are familiar with fixing the leaks yourself and know what I'm talking about (b/c I don't know and can't explain it any better).

The other night i drove 50 miles out side of my town. I pulled in to get gas and when i pulled out of the gas station, my truck started to shake really bad. I checked my oil it was good. All my wires were connected and no problems i could see. I had no check engine light come on. The truck runs still but it still shakes. When i am in park and push on the gas it shakes. Can you please give me a hint on what is wrong?? Its a 1998 dodge ram 318

Is it just to scare people and make money? If it is really necessary, why doesn't the Owner's Manual recommend it earlier? One example: the Owner's Manual recommends changing spark plugs at 100,00 miles or 88 months. My dealership says it should be done at 60,000 miles or 36 months. This is a huge difference. My car is 66 months old and has only 13,000 miles. I have had the oil changed regularly and the tires rotated, but they are pushing for $500 in maintenance. The tech said if I don't do it, the engine could seize up, which would be much more expensive. Thanks for any input.

Going to get some new plates, as old ones are in poor condition, and MOT coming up. What's legal these days? Have found a dozen sites on the net that let you have numerous logos on the side, different texts/fonts, borders etc, but what are you actually allowed?

I'm thinking of buying a Mercedes from an uncle,but he says the car REQUIRES premium gas. With gas prices so high I don't know if the purchase would be worth it. Does the premium gas really make that much of a difference? I'm also hearing higher octane gas burns slower. Is that true?
