My auto mechanics teacher told us that the only thing that matters is the octane level. The only thing you need to do is make sure you are using the gas your car was built to use. He says the only difference is that high cost stations add ome unimportant formula, different from each station, that makes their gas different. But my friend (he's a mechanic) says that it DOES matter. He says he's worked on cars that use the cheap gas and he could tell 'cause their engines are so dirty. Does it really make a difference?

No, it was not a coincidence and no there was no previous noise before the accident.

I got into an accident about a month and a half ago and my bumper has about a 5-6" crack. It's off to the side and not that noticeable, so it doesn't bother me too much. But I'm thinking about selling my car soon and am thinking I should probably get this taken care of before I do. Anyone have an idea of what it costs to replace a bumper?

I know that it is called foaming WHEEL cleaner, but I suppose what I'm asking is can you use it on the hubcaps too. I have the kind that says it's safe for all metals. Thanks.

I own a 2007 Honda Accord and was wondering what brand of car wax do you guys suggest? Also I have never waxed a car before. Do you do it after you wash your car and dry it? Also once the wax is applied, are you supposed to wipe it off afterwards? Also what do you guys use to get your tires looking new.

Thank you.

I have an '04 Saturn Ion with 37k miles and have been having trouble getting the car into 1st gear and an even harder time into reverse. (If it becomes too hard, I have to turn off the car, easily shift into 1st or reverse and restart the car).

I took it to the dealer they replaced the master and slave cylinder but then told me that didnt correct the problem.

Then they told me that the clutch is going bad, not covered under warranty and over $1,000 to fix. I'm just not confident that they really know what the problem is because they are only diagnosing via the phone with Saturn Corp and not physically checking it out...not to mention they were wrong about the master/slave and I dont want to pay 1k if thats not the problem either.

If I start the car on 1st and accelerate while pressing on the clutch...the car does not go forward. I read that this was a way to see if clutch was slipping.

Anyway...Has anyone else had this happen to them? What else could it be?

Thanks!

I have a 1996 Pontiac Sunfire. My trunk doesn't have a remote release on it, the only way to open the trunk is to fiddle around and stick the key in the back, and 98% of the time the key won't unlock it, so then i have to go and pull the latch in the drivers side of the on the floor. and 25% of the time that won't work. So I was wondering if they make remote trunk releases (you know the things where you push the button on like your keychain, and the trunk opens) for my car.
