Yarddog, Welcome to the forum, neighbor. Just saw that you joined a few weeks weeks ago too.
Yeah, interesting but weird selections. A Maserati and Mercedes in a US National registry?? Ferris Bueller's Ferrari replica?
If you don't take the wheel off, how could you measure rotor thickness with a caliper or set up a gauge to check for rotor run-out?
Five spoke mags are the way to go. I always like the American Racing Torque Thrust 2's. Very similar to the Foose Legends but the spokes are...
Years back I used Maguires and then shifted to Mothers. I finished off the detailing with a coat of Collinite 845 Insulator Wax (liquid). I'm...
Welcome from another guy in Ohio.
Exactly, that's what I mentioned in my post.... they had to have had them off during the inspection. That should flag the technician to make a...
He probably did but that is no excuse. Any and all dealers should have a lugnut check on their cars for sale. It's a safety issue. Imagine...
Agree, the article is BS. The author states that the EPA kept mpg records dating back to 1984, so where did he get his data for 1980 and older...
Just wasn't a good week for my daughters at dealerships. Another daughter was getting winter tires put on her Audi A3 at our independently owned...
No trans problems... don't jinx me!
Glad you joined, nice ride. Any mods planned?
really the worse part is for the service manager to blatantly deny coverage of an item that is clearly covered in writing. They also charged $125...
Welcome to the forum. New and old muscle cars... "bookends". Nice. Better upload a couple photos!
She was by herself four states away. Their explanation was that the coil is considered a maintenance item thus not covered under the ext...
I think COVID-19 has diminished the tire manufacturers stock. Between earleir work at home orders and employees getting quarantined, not as many...
I know there are good and not so good service departments at car dealerships. I have always tried to give those service departments the benefit...
I've never used the locking ones. The winter salt corrodes them to where they won't unlock and then getting them off damages the wheel.
Best I could get with my 5.7 / A8 is 25.2 mpg with about 95% highway travel. My problem is there isn't a long distance to keep the cruise on, I'm...
So for $70 thieves can continue stealing wheels... If they are real smart, they'll find out who has a set of replacement keys and steal that too. :D
I put one of the "off-season" wheel/tire in the truck. I only take it out when I need to use the whole trunk space which doesn't happen often....
I totally agree and try to do the same thing when I'm at cruise-ins with either my Challenger or 69 Camaro. You really make a kid's day by...
Ouch. Think of the dirty marks that tire is leaving on the cloth upholstery, especially if the sidewall had any tire dressing on. Now that I...
The trans shop that you took the car to should own this problem. If I understand your post, you brought it in to them with a DTC, not shifting...
"Holy shit, where's my tube of anti-seize!" I have four cars to check, eight sets of wheels/tires, especially the winter sets because of salt...
