I'm pretty sure my starter is dead but before I go buy another I thought I'd ask here. Everytime I turn the key, my car makes this pathetic sound, like it is trying to start but super weak. It's like the starter goes for a second and then stops. It won't keep going enough to get the engine running. Every once in a while the engine will catch and the car will start. Afterwards the car will run great. I got my battery and my Alternator tested so I know they are good. Do I just need a new starter? Is there anything else it could be?

my friend thought his insurance covered him to drive other cars, which it does not. a speeding fine arrived on my doorstep and i put his name on the form with his irish address, stating him as the driver. the west midlands police have contacted him and asked for valid insurance certificate. as he is not able to provide this, so apparently i face 6-8 penalty points and hefty fine for letting him drive without insurance.

is there anyway out of this?

My coolant light shows up 30-40 mls of driving. The resovoir tank is completely empty. I think the coolant is being lost through the overflow pipe which leads to the underneath fender at the front of the vehicle where it is wet. I put a cardboard under the engine but no trace of leak and had a good look at the hoses which seems fine. I also get cold and warm air blowing. The exhaust is dry and the oil on dipstip and coolant resovoir all ok. I have run the engine with the resovoir cap off and heater set to blow hot to get rid of trapped air. I did find white foam with small bubbles in the resovoir tank but that has gone recently . After a couple of minutes with the engine running the coolant overspills from resovoir tank. Any idea why i am losing coolant and the hot and cold air from the vents? Any thing i need to pay particular attention to inthe engine comaprtment? Thanks!

I love the look of my bike without saddlebags and I bought a handlebar pouch but hated it...it rubbed the black onto my chrome (ugh!)...so I guess my question is if I have no where else to put my stuff wouldn't saddlebags be the obvious choice? I just know it will take away from the whole look. :(

I think we may see an even further convergence of car, home audio and the computer. USB ports on the new decks is one indication of this. If you have seen the advertisments for the new i phone, its screen is impresive, i ask you why not make something like the iphone that "snaps" into the dash, connecting it to a amp subs and such. even control it from the steering wheel, in case you get that important call...

So what do you all think? what are trends you expect to see?

First how can I tell if my car has acustic windshield installed, second does it make much of difference if I just install a regular windshield? The price difference is few hundred bucks! Please help

Thanks!
