Thank you in advance. I have two cars, one is a 2002 Honda Accord Value Package and the other is a 2002 Acura 3.2 TL Type S. My question is, approximately how much gas is left in the tank and how much longer can I drive after the orange gas light comes on?

I Purchased the StreetGlow OPTX Multi-Color LED Undercar Kit from Advanced Auto Parts, and Bought a StreetGlow Multi-Color LED Wheel Well Kit online. The Wheel-Well Kit can be connected directly with the Undercar Kit, according to their Website. I Discovered that the OPTX Kit is not Compatible with the StreetGlow Wheel-Well Kit, because StreetGlow OPTX is different from the StreetGlow Version.

I found that the StreetGlow OPTX Kit has a Mini-Din with 8 Pins, and the StreetGlow Kit has a Mini-Din with 9 Pins. Even though they are BOTH made by StreetGlow, they are not Compatible! :(

I called Customer Service, and they explained to me that OPTX by StreetGlow is the Retail Version of StreetGlow, and that StreetGlow is the National Version. He said that there is NO DIFFERENCE in the the two, EXCEPT the Mini-Din Connector's.

So Either I get rid of the Wheel-Well Kit, and buy the OPTX Wheel-Well Kit, OR I get rid of the Undercar Kit, and buy the StreetGlow version. Which should I do?

Would you buy a 1998 Pontiac Grand Prix with 116,000 miles on it for $2700.00? As far as I know, it doesn't have any major problems, brakes were just replaced, and the car has been taken care of. Thanks for any advice.

I drive an older car (94 Chevy Lumina) Runs great but noticed a lit icon on the dashboard. It says !()P Brake.(something similar to that anyway)
Does this mean I need to get brand new brakes or something else. They are sqeeking a lil bit. I dont have an owners manual. Dont want mechanics to take advantage because obviously I have no clue. All answers related to the question are appreciated.

that was probably the best bomber we could have ever made. top speeds at 2,400 mph, was huge and could carry many bombs, and was highly manueverable and could go at extremely high altitudes. could also get out of a dogfight. so why did they do it??

I found a car at a local dealer that seems to be $3000 under the blue book value. It is a 2 year old Toyota. The vin# report on the car shows one owner and no history of damage, accident or mechanical problem. It has just under 20,000miles and the body/interior seems to be in good condition. Why would it be so cheap? What should I look out for?

I have an 02 silver v6 and I've never had him detailed before... was wondering what a fair price would be in the Orange County (Fullerton) or SFV area (Granada Hills/Northridge) of Southern California; I've seen prices range from $100-160 for interior/exterior work. I would prefer mobile service so I don't have to drive out there.

We just got the car back from the shop it wouldn't start after stalling in the drive thru at McDonald's. We just had a new battery put in because they told us ours was dead and we had a new alternater put in as they said that was the problem in the first place. The new alternaor was bench tested and was good(it was rebuilt). We can't even get enough power to roll up the window. All dash lights do come on but car doesn't turn over we tried to boost didn't help. Car was only out of the shop for about one hour. It started fine and does make a tick tick tick, sound when you try to turn it on. It is a 2001 Kia Sportage 4wd.
