Will buy a car soon and was wondering if it was illegal or "against policy" to give car dealer's a tip.

The gage in the dash that shows the battery charging is my problem, When I start the truck the gaug goes over 1/2 way.
In about 10 seconds it goes back over to the left all the way. It starts fine everytime. At night the lights dont go dim at all. And of course when this happens I get the Check gauges light.
Any thoughts

I'm 21 and looking to replace my '99 Mustang (V6). I'm looking for a fun to drive car that gets better gas mileage than 16 mpg. I want the car to be no smaller than the mustang I drive now (bigger would be nice) and also no older then my car. I'm looking for a used car around the $15,000 mark. It MUST be a fun car to drive though. I would LOVE a WRX but unfortunately they're nearly impossible to find used.

Bett then 16 MPG
Size equal to or greater than 1999 Mustang
Newer than 1999
Around $15,000

i own a 94 300zx nonturbo and was looking into making it a bit quicker. I dont want to add any horsepower, but i am really interested in re-doing the gears in the rear end instead. I would like gears that would give me quicker 0-60 times, but still offer me good gas mileage. I would at least like top car to top out at a hundred mph, right now it will hit 137 mph. I want to keep the motor stock, but want to change gears instead. I know that jeeps and off road vehicle use super low gears and can climb over anything. My friend has a rock crawler buggy powered by a 120hp motor that climbs over anything. Is the same idea applied to sports cars? if so what gears would be advised for someone like myself

All of the doors on my 2004 Pontiac Grand Am are frozen shut. The locks are not frozen, it is the actual door. I have tried pounding along the door cracks to break up the ice, but no avail. I have tried pouring water along the cracks, and it appeared to work on the ice, but I'm still unable to open the doors. I am very hesitant to use water, even warm water, on my car as I once witnessed windows being cracked due to this. I have even used brute force, but I am afraid to break the door handles. This is day #2 of not being to leave my home due to my frozen car. I need some new ideas... nothing given in previous answers has helped me. Please no preventive measures, unless you want me screaming in frustration. Just solutions. :)

I have a Saab which has been in my garage for almost a year because it needs an engine replacement. The engine died due to an issue with sludge. There is a known defect with the engine, but Saab is refusing to replace it because I cannot produce all oil change and maintenance receipts for the 6+ years I have owned the car. I have seen from various websites that I am not the only one going through this.

for example in Italy,they use a "no-claims bonus system": more accidents, and you pay more, no accidents and each year your premium lows(although each year the price often rises so the saved money is quiet a few)...is it the same there?

I'm buying it from a junkyard. How should I know if I see a 1995 Galant Idle Air Control Valve, for example, if it fits to my 1997 Galant? I need to know which other Galant model valves are compatible to my 1997 Galant. Thanks for all your help.

I traded in a car and bought a new truck from a local car dealer. I bought the truck on Nov. 10 and the car I traded in has not been paid off as of today December 24 and they have sold my old car. The trade in was financed and they keep calling me for payment since the dealer has not paid it off. I have called the dealer and spoke to the manager and their accountants, they both say this is normal. I have bought other vehicles and this has never happened before. At this point, I just want to turn the truck in back to the dealer and walk away with a lesson learned. What are my options?
