Cars & Transportation - 21 August 2007

I put a new 350 in my camaro about 6 months ago and lately I've been having to put about a qt in every week. my car has been running hot also, it gets up to 210 while in traffic, and after I turn the car off it gets really hot because the fan only turns on when the car is on and doesnt turn off till the car is off. Could my car burn more oil from running this hot? Oh, and I usually never drive my car more than about 15-30 min. at a time cause every where I go is real close but I got several places to go everyday. Could this short distance driving contribute to oil burning? Because that means much of the time im driving my pistons havent swelled to their full size, right? any advice?

and when I started to drive down the road, after getting it unstuck, the tcl and the check engine light came on. The tcl goes off when I start the car up but after driving it a few miles, it comes back on. The check engine light has stayed on.

Do you have to have all the same brand tires on your car or can you mix it up 2 and 2? We can't find our tires any where and we need to replace two of them. Anyone know?

In my honda accord whenever i turn on the lights the backlight to my radio dims and my dashboard also dims. It seems to me that during the day they should be dim, and when i turn on the lights for night the backlights should come on so I can actually read my radio.

I had some trouble with my car 3 weeks ago and the light came on. The reading said P0755 solonoid circuit/ faulty shift solonoid. I have a powertrain warranty but had to pay 100 bucks for the deductible. Today my light came back on and the car is acting weird again. I took it to autozone and the diagnostic reading again was a P0755. I called the car dealership and they said I would have to pay a deductible again. I am pissed. They said it is something different. How could it be if the reading is the same? Shouldn't they have to guarantee their work?

My wife has a 99 Nissan Quest GLE with a possessed keyless entry system. When the remote has a battery installed the system acts like it has been inhabited by a polterguist. The door locks continuosly open and shut. The system makes a clicking noise without activating the locks when the buttons are pressed. Door lock buttons inside the car (driver and passenger) don't work, manual locks are OK. Have to hit the driver's side manual lock to lock up the van. Can also use the key to lock the whole van. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

My car overheated the other day and I checked the radiator coolant, which was empty. I refilled it but it overheated on me today. Does it need engine coolant as well? And if so would that be the same as radiator coolant? Or any other ideas what might be going on? (I am on cool climates and do not drive far between work and home)

Mid-Life Crisis!

Learner - I took my CBT (Compulsey Bike Training).

I bought the "perfect bike" (the biggest I could) Yamaha XVS Drag Star 125 to learn on.

I am an experienced car driver - but the bike "paps" me up! (What "paps" me up are car drivers! - IRONY and cornering) - I haven't taken her off the estate - or my drive!

So I have 2 hours (road) experience on any bike and WANT to be a biker!

She has not done many miles (1100 in 3 years) and she calls for me!

HELP.

Why is edmunds.com so much lower than kbb.com?

Should I low-ball and work my way up? Is the average between kbb and edmunds fair?
