An 11 yr old ridin a motorized scooter apparently lost control of the device and collided into the side of my vehicle. A police report was made and he was taken to the hospital as procedure, he had a scraped knee. I observed him across a stop sign and stopped completely. Then when I proceeded cautiously....out of nowhere he obviously ran into the car. Another motorist witnessed what happened and agreed with my argument which stated "he ran into the car." I would like to further this case but I'm not sure if I have a chance. I am well aware that motorized scooters should not be operated on streets, highways, parking lots and sidewalks. My car sustained a minor dent above the front left wheel and I would like to be compensated for the damage and the stress I'm currently undergoing.

I've checked a lot of places, but they all say either 23 or 25. We just want to rent a car / van for one day.

Hi,

Thankfully it's not my car. :p

http://www.hummertime.co.uk/fuelfilter.jpg

It's a VW Golf IV TDI (Diesel) (European model)

However.. any ideas of what could have caused the fuel filter to get so salty/corroded? I can't work it out... unless perhaps wrong grade of fuel was used regularly which is unlikely.

I'd very much like to have an idea of what might cause it in case the same thing ever happens with my fuel filter.

Thanks. :)

I saw Skyline GT R34 with a "Thunder" Symbol in front. The look is smoother. Not rigid as the original. Is it GT T? I am confused. Please help me.

long story short.... 2002 Mercury Grand Marquis just crapped out on on interstate one day. Had it towed to nearest dealership and they said that it was "possibly" a bad oil pump and caused the engine to seize. Warranty was voided due to lack of maintenace receipts (as luck would have it). I don't plan to keep the car cause I already got a new one but you can't really seel a car that doesn't run. So should I have the engine rebuilt or replaced with a rebulit one? I'm afraid to go to a mechanic because I don't want to get bad info. HELP!

It has had about $7000 put into rebuilding the engine (parts only) but still has quite a bit of restoration left on the body & interior.

I was driving city at night today... Suddenly, I couldn't see anything so I had to stopped side of the road to see my headlights were on... and it wasn't so I put emergency lights on to see what's there. I've been freeway for 30min but I've never pulled over by COPS.
But well...my thing is that I bought this HID kit half year ago... And it just turned off(BOTH), does it mean my bulbs are burned out?

in about 3 years i will be buying a car. i love V8 and have since well ever, but these days you see a lot skylines and WRX's and EVO's and i am starting to take a liking to them. im not sure what to buy, i don't care about fuel consumption because i will be buying the car for power and speed so fuel isn't the main thing im looking at. are V8's going out and jap imports coming in? are jap imports easier to work on? i like technology and all that goes into an import, i also like the idea of tuning a turbo, it just seems more interesting than V8's. if you advise to buy an import, what sort should I buy (looking at brand new but doesn't really matter is used)?

I did a research project a few weeks ago and I went to a Mercedes dealer. I asked how a Mercedes would compare with a Lexus. The saleslady told me that Mercedes is more prestigious and that it is the safest car in the world. She says a Lexus is just a Toyota. I knew she was telling me all kinds of lies. I said that even a Toyota Camry has a five star crash safety rating and that the E and C-Class only recieved a four star crash safety rating (according to National Highway Traffic Safety Admin). She says that you couldn't compare a Camry with a Mercedes. Then I asked, "Well, wouldn't you expect a Mercedes that costs 3 times as much to be safer than a Toyota?" She then went on about how hardly anyone has died in a Mercedes before, except for Princess Diana. I know Japanese cars have a stereotype of being light and unsafe, but facts today don't seem to support that claim. Any impressions or comments? Go to the Mercedes category and view this question and see how I replied to their answers

I can't seem to find any information on stray livestock liability, can someone help me?
About two weeks ago my partner and I were travelling 100kms an hour along a highway at 11pm when we hit a large horse. The horse ran from the right hand side of the road, hit the front right corner of the car, smashed the windscreen and flew up over the car crushing the roof. We're extremely lucky to be alive and the car (first thought to be written off) is currently being fixed. We found out later that the horse was on agistment and the gate was left open which is how the horse got out. The insurance company has told us the owner is not liable and my partner will have to pay the excess. He was only a few months away from rating one for life. What's going on? Can anyone shed some light on why we should have to pay for someone elses carelessness?

After my car not starting it turns out that the damn thing was just flooded but now i have a new problem. When I press the gas my lights start like blink, but not turning all the way off and coming back on they just dem then lighten repeatedly. When I am in idle its fine but as soon as i start to pressing the gas they start to do the dem blinking thing. It sucks cause I keep thinking that I left my damn blinker on, and it is not just the headlights its in the dashboard, on my tach, and on everything.

ok so i am buying a supercharger for my mustang gt. I like the idea of the roush sueprcharger kit but it is 8 grand. Is it worth it over like a vortec one? What kind of horse power does it give?

And then i assume that the supercharger is better then a turbo charger right? Or am i looking at the wrong thing? HELP!!!!

when her daughter picked up the car, i told her, that there are a few adjustments i still needed to make, and let me know of any problems.... well that was about three weeks ago, i have not seen the car since. now i have been told of a few different problems that the car is having, such as a rear main seal leak, an oil saturated air filter, and a loose oil filter. well the loose oil filter, i did not do the latest oil change, a saturated air filter can be caused by a few things. but the rear main seal, i am being told that with the strut bolts missing (there when it left) it would cause this to happen.
btw did i mention i have not been paid yet for the work.
i did the work in my drive way. i told them i can only warranty failed parts that were replaced. but now i am hearing all kinds of bs on the subject.
