If tiny bubbles continuously rise to the surface of the coolant at the radiator filler neck, is that an early sign of head gasket failure?

I was told that you can trade your stock car lights for HID lights on the web, but wasn't sure what website (if it exists) to go on. I have a 2006 Scion TC, and wanted some HID lights for a good buy, or swap. If anyone knows about cars or fixing up cars (especially TC's), please any information is good enough.
THANKS!

I bought a beautiful 2007 Toyota Avalon about 11 months ago when I was able to aford it even though the bank gave me an 8.5% APR for six years. Upfront when I got it I added insurance from the dealer so that the car wouldn't give me problems in the future ( I didn't know the car had warranty from the manyfacturer for the first 45,000mi), thus I'm paying more than what the car is worth. Today, I am going through financial harpship and I can't keep up with the monthly payments. I still owed about $30,000. I want to know if i can still turn in the car to the dealer who sold it to me because it hasn't been a year yet, and get rid of the car? Any suggestions are greatly appreciated in advance, Thanks.

What kind of spark does your bike have.. or what type of spark should a perfect bike have..

Mine used to be orange, big and wandering.

Now ive got my loom sorted out its white consistent and strong.

Is this right?

My problem is, my bike will not start and the spark is there, fuel to plug, compression and air, but not firing.

Only thing i can thing of is timing (not started after re-build)

Would the magnto timing cause this?

Thanks.

I had a 1997 grand prix the transmission died about 8 months ago. I had a used transmission installed for around $1,200 which only lasted 8 months. Is the auto mechanic responsible for fixing the transmission since his work lasted less then a year. This took place in the state of NH.

I have a bit of a problem with my 1995 honda accord lx: the gas milage sucks! last tank of about 15 gallons, i didnt even get 200 miles. now, my tank is 3/4 done and im only at 95 miles. I live in the Chicago land area and the whether has been pretty cold around here, but i didnt think that it would kill my gas milage like that. I didnt get such bad milage last year, this is just making me mad. If anyone has any suggestions on what to do. My check engine light isnt on and the car seems to be acting normally. Someone please help! thanks in advance.

What should the cold tire pressure be for a 2006 Corolla? I have Goodyear Integrity tires. On the tires it says the maximum pressure is 44 psi. How close to 44 psi should I be maintaining the cold tire pressure?

There was a question about letting a parallel parked SUV pull out into traffic and most of the answers were like "I would not let him in I hate SUV drivers", "SUV drivers think they own the road", or "I hate the SUV mentality." Maybe if these people drove a delivery truck around the Dallas Ft Worth Metroplex everyday like I do they would find out that bad drivers are in lots of different vehicles, not just SUVs. I've been cut off by an SUV, but i've also been cut off by a car as well. I've been tailgated while going the speed limit by an SUV, but its also been a car or a pickup doing it as well. I've seen lots of cars that think they own the road too.

BTW I drive a small car and I have no problem with an SUV in front of me because I don't tailgate. Because of this, I could see around a Hummer.

Maybe this is just a Texas thing. Are there any parts of the country where SUV drivers are really bad but the car drivers are really good?

Hi! I live in Miami and have a friend who just got a ticket for his tinted windows. He went to a place to get the back windows tinted and they put the legal 20% of light, which even car from dealers have. He got stopped by a cop with his front windows down, the cop just looked at the back windows, supposed the front windows were the same way and gave him a ticket of $300 dollars! What can he do? He has the legal tints in the back and the front ones are without them.
