I'm 19 years old, and just got pulled over in Hamilton County (not the county I live in) 2 weeks ago for a 79 in a 55, and receivied a $104 speeding ticket. I am already late on paying it, but have been told as long as I pay it before the warrants been out for 30 days, I just have to pay $45 extra for court costs of not appearing. The reason I have yet to pay is that I recently found out I wasn't insured at the time I was pulled over. My grandparents had been paying my insurance and didn't inform me they stopped paying the month prior, because I moved out of their house. I was driving my Mom's car, which she has a policy on, and I'm wondering what I should do. I'm going to send the money in the mail, should I send my old insurance card, will they check to see if it's valid, should I send in a copy of my Mom's policy for the car I got pulled over in, or should I send the check with no proof of insurance and hope they won't push the issue any farther, since they got their money?

I think it is so unfair to hype up the premium.

when you use the brake does it only engage the front brakes or both front and rear brakes?

I drive a 1990 Jeep Wrangler 2.5L. It pretty good for off roading, but I get about 65 mph tops. I need more power!!! But I also drive a lot, and gas is expensive nowadays.

I heard stuff about Bio-diesel. That you get 30+ mpg and get awsome Horsepower and Torque.

What is an affordable replacement diesel engine? Do I have to change my transmission? I have 4.10 gear ratio so I dont think I need to change that, do I?

Whats the most affordable way to do this change. And how (what else do I need). PLEASE HELP! I have a lot of hood space so even a pretty good sized engine would fit. The more power the better!

With the rising price of gas, and the threat of global warming -- Why are there so many SUV's, hummers, pickups, and vans on the road? When I commute, almost all of these big vehicles have no passengers, no payload -- and only the driver! There are so many appealing smaller cars to choose from, too... I just don't get it!

In order to save gas after the vehicle starts rolling, can I install a switch to turn off 1 or 2 valves for fuel injection in V6 or V8 without affect the speed of the vehicle?

My Car: Audi A4 2002 TDi

My Problem: Electric Windows (front)

Description:

- drivers side control does not activate drivers side window
- drivers side control does activate passenger side window
- passenger side control does not activate passenger side window
- auto window open/close on key fob ONLY opens/clsoes passender side window

These is how my car is all the time (i.e. not intermittant)

I can't believe its the switches in the doors because of the key fob control working at least for the passenger side door.

In the name of reducing the damage to the environment through excessive use of my aircon, PLEASE HELP MEEEEE.

If its the relay-whatcha-ma-callit then please direct me to how to open and fix it!

I bought a good condition 1992 Honda Prelude 2.3 L auto 2 years ago. I'm very unsatisfy with the brake, because it is soft.

My expectation is that it should perform like brand new car, where a gentle press is sufficient.

Few of my mechanics suggest to rotate/polish the discs, check leaks, brake fluid issue, leak brake hose, bad brake pad. So in 2 years, I done the following, but no improvement

1) Top up brake fluid
2) Replaced all 4 brake pad with sport performance ceramic compound
3) Ensure brake hose no leakage
4) Ensure brake caliper and related parts function
5) Rotate/polish all 4 brake discs
6) Replaced front rotors with sport performance ventilated slot discs

None of these make the brake respond any better. I still have to push the brake hard to react like new car, which only need to press gently.

Front sport slot disc does make front wheel to lock better during hard brake.

Mechanics are thinking I'm asking too much, but I believe they miss something

Followed by an obviously powerful white propeller plane fly probably around 1000 feet directly over your head during a smoke break at work? Then while leaving work see another white plane covered with radar devices pass by less than 1/2 mile from the first plane, flying at nearly the same altitude? I have.
