After taking my car outta 5th gear when i have been driving 60 mph or more.. i notice that every time i take a left turn.. i hear a sound kinda resembling "a stick being dragged across a picket fence" type noise.. i was thinking it was something around the axle but i noticed when i turn the car off and then drive it later on that day .. i can take left turns just fine without having to hear that sound. What could be the problem and does it have something to do with the 5th gear?

I am 22 and I will be getting my first car soon. It is used and in good condition. I am wanting to put my mother on the insurance as well so we can both drive the car and be covered.

It seems like a great car, good mileage, looks cute, fun to drive. It has 52000 miles on it, and the dealer wants 11000 for it. Any thoughts?

Does anyone else have this problem and if so, what do you do about it. My problem is that when people are driving towards me, even on dipped beams, I find the lights so bright that they seem to blind me and also cancel everything else out which is in front of me, ie people that might be crossing the road.

the continuing use of mobile phones when driving,is particularly bad in the north west of the UK, blatant use by transport drivers is normal, we see many times vehicles making turns with the drivers using mobile phone, whilst making the turn, I really thought this was now iilegal to use these when driving has the law changed or too lax in enforcement these users are dangerous the high volume of traffic on the roads does not allow for such stupidity

I was driving with my 6 month old and got hit head on after he came across the yellow lines. the impact flipped and rolled us and we slid on my roof. I crawled out on my knees on my roof and then had to sit and watch my baby hang inside the car until they finally got her out. very scary. she had glass in her mouth and i had neck, knees, back,wrists and ankle pains and cuts all over me. i had physical therapy and xrays etc totaling 11,000 and i hear about this "general rule" of 3x medical- but i have 2 other kids and a husband and a life that took a while to get adjusted to. im in college and it hurts in my knees still when i walk and so much more inconveniences. like i'm scared of cars hittiing me now- i even jump if they come too close. what do you think?

So I finally saved up enough money to get a new bike, but it's the very end of the riding season here (colorado), and there's only a few days left. My question is can I save money by buying the bike now and storing it for the winter, or am I better off just waiting till spring? If it is cheaper now, is it worth having seven thousand dollars sit in my garage all winter?

Thanks guys!

okay here is my problem. I get into a small car accident but the main problem is that during that time my car is insurance with AllState than I switch to StateFarm because my AllState expire day after the accident. I cannot claim on my insurence company since i'm not insurence with them during the accident. What can I do about it now?

Someone flipped their car right behind me on the highway at 5:30 AM. The car skidded on the roof for a few hundred feet. Police were there in seconds. People should not drive when they are sleepy.

These are 2 concept cars that I really like. I am looking for any old or new car models (not supercars!!) that look like these that I could buy...

1) Toyota FT HS Concept

2) Lexus LF-A

Or even somethings that looks like a 1998-2003 Pontiac Trans Am (It has to be a 4 passenger vehicle)

Thanks!!

I know that gas is slightly cheaper than petrol, but it does not give the same power. Is it possible to buy petrol in the USA?

it all started with the motor going through some very thick mud at very low speeds, water outtake was flowing poorly at one point completley stopped, got water to flow by cleaning the outtake with a bottom bouncer(thin wire), dont know if the power head overheated and caused damage, two weeks later took the boat out it took a while to start and went off then motor started to shake and stalled, kept doing this in forward but in reverse it ran and then after multiple tries and waiting a while the motor ran in forward at low speeds fine. after the initial difficult start it started fine each time when it would stall. was wondering if it could be the water pump or if it is very serious and should get a dealer to look at it. thanks for any info.
