I mean, are there any companies who take in cars from private owners to rent to others? Is this legal?

I know that an out-of-round tire vibrates the car badly the faster you go and yet can still be dynamically balanced perfectly on the technician's spin balance machine.

I just got a job offer but i'm not sure if i'm going to accept it. The main reason being it's 45 minutes away from my home. Not counting that i can ran into traffic, especially when coming back home. I'm not sure i want to have to drive 1h30 or more everyday just to get to work and back. What do you think and how far are you from work ?

I was rear ended yesterday in my Saturn by a Ford F150. It left minimal scuffing (it knocked me a little bit but I didn't move) but everything else seems to be in order. I took down his name, number, e-mail, and address, but did not alert the police because there was minimal external damage and I know how they get if you call them out over something so petty. Plus I still have the 24 hours to make the report if there were any damages. Now, he said he would pay out of pocket since the damage to my car was simply scuffing instead of having to hassle the insurance companies. How do I know if there was any internal FRAME DAMAGE though? What does scuffing normally cost to fix anyway?? Help me out on this one. I have limited time. Thanks!

I bought a car about 15 months ago and ran a carfax report which came back clean. Now I need to sell the car and someone told me that they did a carfax report and it came back with inconsistent millage. Why did this not show up initially when I purchased the car? Is there anything I can do? If someone changes the millage isn't that illegal? Can I find out the specifics of when the change of millage occured? From my research I've learned that carfax is apperently a waste of money and often either lacks info or places false info on accidents and millage in the report. So am I screwed with a car that may have a lot more miles than the 60K I think it has?

We listed our car for $5200 and he talked us all the way down to $4300. We shook and agreed on that. Right before he gave us the money for the car he mentioned that the bank didn't give him the full amount so he was only giving us $4100. FINE. But now, 5 minutes after he drove off with the car he said the check engine light came on. It's never come on before and it drove perfect when I drove 1 hour to meet him. So now he's wanting us to do something about that, pay for repairs and such. What would you do? We're not trying to scam him, however it seems a little "convenient" that the check engine light suddenly came on.

My husband just bought a 1986 honda xr200r dirtbike shell with all parts not installed. I am trying to find a site on the internet that gives directions on how to install the parts in it. All I have been able to find on the internet so far are manuals that must be purchased. Does anyone know a sight that gives out free directions online?

I just bought a used Toyota and had it inspected by an independent mechanic (who said the brakes were in great shape). The car is also under manufacturer's warranty. In the past couple of weeks, the brakes started squealing for the first 2-3 stops after starting the car....then everything quiets down. Should I be concerned?

Also, it's been raining a lot lately. Could it be moisture?

I want to drop about an inch to an inch and a half, and i REALLY don't want to just cut the springs. I've heard that's really bad for the shocks.

I was in a very minor accident the other day. I got rear ended and the person who hit me claimed responsibility and was willing to pay for any damages. We exchanged contact information and left it at that.

If the amount of damages is a high enough amount that the other driver wants to get insurance to cover it, does my insurance have to be notified of this as well even though they really wouldn't be involved?

My father has always had a pair of schwitzer turbos on the shelf in the garage that he said were charted to match a 454 perfectly. I am buying a Ford 460FE to swap into an F250 in place of the 360 that shelled out. Since it is close enough in displacement to accept the turbos, i figured i would only need to lower the compression and possibly change the camshaft.

What is the easiest/cheapest method to lower the compression? My friend advises that i simply put on a thicker head gasket or two, no sense replacing pistons that have "worn in", at a big cost.

What changes to the camshaft might be necessary? If so, what camshaft specifically should I use? I plan on running no more than 3 PSI of boost, to keep things modest and safe.

I have a Holley Dominator 650cfm 4-barrel carb that i want to use, so do i simply build an air-box around it like my father says, to balance air pressures, and use a slightly higher pressure electric fuel pump? Do i need solid floats?

Ignition changes?

How do you signal to cars behind you that you're getting off at the next exit when you're on an expressway?

Do you use arm signals, or do you use the blinker lights?
