hi,
I have a very peculiar and strange problem with my L reg nissa micra....and this problem surfaces only during winters...in the cold winter mornings the car engine turns but just doesn't fires up...as the day progresses and the temp goes up with sun and all, the engine fires up...also I have observed that the fuel pump switching on sound which comes up when u turn the ignition is missing when I try doing the same in the cold winter mornings....I have been going mad over this issue and have got everything else checked and changed like the...engine oil, spark plugs and even the distributor....still the problem of cold start in the mornings persists...and its just in the winter mornings....in summers there is no problem at all...already have spent more than £200 on the services....plz help...thanks.

I'm trying to retrofit my own Bluetooth kit to my 2000 323ci. I just need to find out where that phone button on the steering wheel links to... any ideas? I presume at some location where the BMW phone kit can be simply plugged in. But where?

I bought my 2000 Z28 3 years ago, and It was in Beautiful Shape, both Cosmetically, and Mechanically.

After I tried to Pamper it, I think I am turning Gold into ****, now!! :(

The guy used Regular Pennsoil 10W-30 Motor Oil in it. It ran Great!! I changed it using the same oil. Ran Great!!

Then, I deside to Switch to Synthetic! I thought that would be a Good change, since I want to Keep the Car for a Very Long Time!!

But, NO!! It DIDN'T Sound so great, after the first Synthetic Oil Change!! Now, I burn oil, and have an Engine Knock!! THIS SUCKS!!

What can I do to Fix this?!? WTF?!?

All Master Mechanics out there, PLEASE Help!! <:*)

Given "following too closely" citation highway in Atlanta, GA. It involves three cars. Mine was the third.When police came, the other two drivers said there was a traffic, and that i hit the back bumper of the car in the middle, the middle car hit the back bumper of the one in the front.The Police told me that the front car owner told him that there was a traffic and that he experienced one impact . So Police said if that is the case , I must have started the hitting from the back .
Can I say say something something like am being distracted by a car horning in the other lane , can I have access to a public lawyer cos I dont have money to get a lawyer. Should I plead guilty?Can I be charged just for $100 dollar fine ?($100 fine is still O K for me). Help.
I am confused . Help

ok... i know this sounds funny/stupid.... not to mention crazey..
but, i have a dodge truck and today it would change (transmission) out of 1st gear until i put gas in it, yes i said gas. the gas was really low as on the red line low. this was NOT the 1st time it has done this. this has happened 2-3 other times when the gas has gotten really low. fliud checked out fine and i switched it off (b4 adding gas) and switched it back on, and it still wouldn't shift. all other times it shifts fine, only when the gas is that low is when i have probs with it shifting. after adding the gas, i was on my merry lil way without any probs. my brother was with me when this happened and when i told him after i put gas in it, it will probley be fine, he thought i was crazy. after adding gas, he saw for himself and didn't know what 2 say... my van wouldn't shift once due to a fuse being out, but never from low gas.
i PROMISE this happened, no joke...
have you heard of this b4 or know anything about it?
