I have a 1997 Nissan Altima. I am not a racer but I need to replace the struts soon & want to know if I should have a strut bar installed as well. I do regular city driving with 600 mile trips every other month.

Should I invest in this from a performance issue & so my struts last longer, to reduce wear n tear on my car? If so, what kind of strut bar should I look for? Any recommended brands or places to buy it? Thanks for your help

I heard somewere along the lines that a bloke in Europe had bought a property which had an extremely large garage that was welded up. Once he bought it the garage was opened to a vast amount of classic vintage cars that had been in storage for numerous years. Just wanted to see if any one has seen a link to this as after searching am still to find one.
Any help gratefully appreciated.

I have a 2008 model grand prix and noticed that there are these two really shallow dents/ dimples in the passenger door. They are both less than a dime in diameter, and no damage/ scratched paint. You almost have to be looking for these little dimples to see them.

This a a rental car that I have to bring back in a couple days and I'm wondering if wax or polish will sort of fill them in so they're not noticible. They're barely noticible now actually, you almost have to be looking at a certain angle to see them but they're right next to each other so it's a little noticible.

Unfortunately there are no paintless dent repair people around where I'm at so that's a no go.

Thanks for any info.

I bought one from ebay.... (ebay search*: ceramic car heater)

Can't include linky cause Y/A doesn't seem to post up qus with links in it anymore.

The reason for getting one was to get the car warmed up and help defrost windows for the first 10 minutes of driving, before the engine proper gets warmed up for car's own heating system to takeover. (then unplugging the ceramic heater unit)

However plugging it in for first time.. it doesn't seem to produce much heat unless your hand is close up to it (6 inches), and at a distance it feels cool air.

Even if it's cool at a distance... hot air rises I suppose so do you think they work for the job in Winter - or are they just a con?

If you have one can you tell me whether you find it useful?

I drive 2000 Chevy Impala, which has several minor problems. I want to take it to a Chevy dealer for a check-up and fix somewhat major problems only. The thing is the car is only worth a few grand, so I don't want to end up spending more than the value of the car to fix it. After all, I'm only going to drive it for a few more years.
How can I avoid unnecessary repairs and reduce repair cost?

I recently recieved 2 tickets one for going 27 on a 20 in a school zone and one for no insurance by a ******** sherriff in. I was on my way to get insurance that day since my car was not running at all. I was coming up a hill and the sun must have got into my eyes and blinded me, so i couldnt see the yellow light flashing for the school zone. What should i do, hire a traffic attorney or go at it by myself?

I am a new driver. I have just recieved my license and my parents are willing to buy me a car. I have narrowed it down to two choices. The Chevrolet Aveo or the Kia Rio. I go to school about 45 miles away from home and only commute there once a month. I also only work about 3 miles from where I live and can walk to do all of my shopping. Any help?

This is a petty question and it's just for fun.

I know cars are a liability and a lot of millionaires drive Honda Accords but I'd like to see who in here is not afraid to drop some cash on their rides.

I personally work overseas so I do not currently have a ride. If your interested then post up a pic of you and your car. It would be better if you were in the pic with your car for more credibility.

No trolls please, if your going to post negative comments please follow this link....

Looking forward to some nice rides and responses.....

Most companies usually have a rival product out on the heals of their competitors' new products.
