I have a 1997 Subaru WRX, not sure if it is a STi, and don't know what oil to use! I don't mind on what brand it is, just want to know what grade is best!

My friend got hit by a car while she was at a stop sign. She has had problems with her hip for more than a year now. Her insurance paid for the chiropractor and today she has had her hearing in court and it did not go well. They questioned her about her activities after the accident and she decided to be honest and told them that she went horseback riding five or six times after the accident, that she goes biking and also takes long walks. After that, they came to the conclusion that her hip problem got worse because of her activities and not because of the accident. Now she has an outstanding balance of more than $10,000 with the chiropractor.
Her insurance paid some of the chiropractor at the beginning and then stopped.
What is going to happen next? Can she fight it? Is there some hope left in winning the case ?

My child just got his learners permit in CA, but he has not taken his first behind-the-wheel class yet. On the permit it says not to drive until his first B.T.W. class, but is it okay if i bring him to a completely empty parking lot?

It is a VW Passat 2.8L V6. I just got it and I believe the dealer put regular in it and the manual says premium. Now the car is shaking a bit. Could this be a result of not having premium in it?

Legal rights when my car hit someone in front of me or someone backed into me!! Please help me - I'm a wreck
I was in my school parking lot waiting to pick up my child (there is a long line of cars) when I accidentally let my foot slip off the brake, we we're all stopped and slid into a van in front of me. The driver and I both got out and we saw there was no damage and went on with our lives. About a week later, I get a call from her husband wanting $440.00 for a damaged bumper. He said that was the lowest quote. Now he's calling and harrassing me about payment. What do I do? He says he has a witness that saw the whole thing. Saw his wife get out with me and say there was no damage? I don't understand. I saw her van and there is not a dent or scratches on that back fender as well as not on my front fender. I am so stressed over this. Please help me.

Seems like the older ones were manly driven by women and I don’t want my next truck to be girly.

Drove through a big puddle and now the reverse will not function on the 1997 Audi A4 1.8 Quattro. What can it be? It works in park and drive. Help! Took it to a foreign car repair and they said they didn't know what was wrong - $18 please.

My 2003 Honda Odyssey is making a weird nose when I try to start it. It will start, but acts like it doesn't want to. It takes it a few tries for it to catch.
My hubby is deployed and I have three toddlers, so it is extremely difficult for me to get to a mechanic....though I will if I have to.
I have to drive 1 hour to and from the airport tomorrow to pick up my father-in-law. Do you think it will make it there and back alright? Any ideas what it is and what I should do?

My teen daughter needs a car. My friend has a 2001 Crown Vic cop car he's willing to sell for $500. It has 200,000 miles on it and his wife has been driving it and says it runs fine. But I don't have $500 to just dump on a bad deal. I couldn't afford alot of work on it. Any advice? Would YOU buy it?

I went to Tire Kingdom recently and they tried to persuade me to get a tire alignment as part of my car's maintenance. But it handles just fine and I don't really have any problems with the steering. The tires themselves are okay, too. Were they just trying to scam me or are tire alignments really a preventative maintenance procedure?
