Maintenance & Repairs - August 2006

I often take the car out of gear, put it in neutral and then push the brake...is this bad? I do it because i don't want to wear out my clutch.

I was reading an insert in my newspaper advertising "Extraordinary Uses for Ordinary Things" by Readers Digest. I don't want to buy the book but was wondering if anyone knows what I can wipe on windows that will prevent ice buildup. You can also put it on windows that already have ice and the ice will melt.

My mazda is barely 5 years old, and the last people who had it did not maintain it at all. not even an oil change. Now it's making all sorts of noises, it has a low end engine knock and a rattle on top of it. ( i've heard cars make worse noise but this sounds sick ) I've put so much into this car, as far as repairs and maintaince goes, now I have to have a new engine before it throws a rod. I'm not completely car stupid, but I can't figure out what this means, the main piston rod? I can't picture what this would look like, I imagine something like the drive shaft falling while driving. but that's easier repaired than "throwing a rod" I've heard a car throw a rod and the engine locked up and never driven again.. it literally died. Can some one give me a better answer than " she's gonna throw a rod" ? what the hell does this mean? how could it have been prevented? is there any way to expand the life expectancy o fthe enigne? Urgh !

Yeah I know that's hard to do. It's an ugly car! Not bad itself, just an ugly shape all together! The paint isn't bad on it just needs wax. I just got it. It's a 4 door seafoam green. Just give me some hints for some minor things that will help it look better until I can afford the more dramatic things. Or maybe even links to pics of other Corsicas that have been made over.

Hi there i have a 2000 model ford festiva and i was driving home this afternoon and without notice my engine started rev higher and my speed started to slow off. i have heard of brake fade, which doesn't allow you to stop because your brakes are so hot, can the same thing happen with your clutch? I pulled off to the side of the road for a little while, but there was no improvement. Taking off at a red light was a real mission, because the engine would rev but the car would take off very slowly.( yes my foot was completely off the clutch pedal). I have general automotive knowledge, but i'm not sure if this happens, or if i need a new cluch plate, or oil is leaking onto the plate, or something even worse? If anyone can help that would be great. Oh i drive the car properly and dont give the car a thrashing.
