    Power Steering Fluid Change

    Is it necessary to change out the fluid and at what intervals? I'm getting like a rubbing squeaky sound whenever I turn the wheel. It's pretty faint, can't hear it if I have the radio on. Also, looking at the reservoir, the fluid looks black. I heard it's supposed to be red?

    Low/Rough/Surging Idle

    First off, I did do a search and it came up with the same answer, clean the throttle body. Now, the problem is, this occurred AFTER I cleaned the throttle body. I took off the intake pipe and sprayed Throttle Body Cleaner inside, on the butterfly. Then, I opened up the butterfly and spray in...

    Seafoam is expensive now!

    I just saw it at Kragen for $8.99 and Walmart for $8.67! It was only a year ago when it was $6.99 regular price. Decided not to get it and instead just opted for the $3.49 Valvoline Throttle Body Cleaner instead. How could it have gone up in price that much in such a short period of time?

    Time for Timing Belt Change?

    What's the longest you've gone without changing the timing belt? I've just crossed into 100K and was told by a mechanic, after doing some routine service, that my timing belt had "cracks" and that it was time to get it done. Now, I know it's time to get it done and I have a timing belt kit...

    Wider Tires

    I have some 205/60/15 tires on right now and I'm about to buy a new set since they're getting kinda bald. I know the stock tires are 195/65/15 so would it make a difference in performance if I went back to the 195's?

    Shaking

    So, my cars shakes a lot when I put it in reverse, shakes most extremely when the car is warm (like when I'm reversing into a parking spot). How do I check to see if I need to replace my motor mounts? Honda gave me an estimate for roughly $1000 to replace all my motor mounts and $400 to just...

    AEM Dryflow Filter

    I just used the AEM Dryflow cleaning kit on my filter and it said to let it air dry. Well, I left it out in the sun for 5 hours in about 82 degree heat and the filter part is still wet. I've tried using a blowdryer to dry it but that doesn't have any effect. Would this cause any problems if I...

    Eibach Sportline (I4)

    Price Paid - ~$190 Purchased From - MotorSportsDirect (Ebay) Rating - 9/10 Comfort level is great while riding in these. It doesn't sit as low as I'd like but it does add quite an aggressive look to my car. I used to ride on Skunk2 Coilover sleeves and the comfort was nothing compared to...

    Has anyone ever tried this?

    Save on Gas Cards Supposedly you pay $25 for a coupon book worth $100 of gas. Their site says that the catch is that you only get one booklet per year and can only submit 3 coupons at one time in order to get the gas cards. Sounds like a good deal, but is it too good to be true? Anyone ever...

    Extreme Shaking/Shuddering

    Okay, here's the deal: I drive an auto and whenever I shift into reverse my car starts shaking really badly and shuddering kinda like when you pull out the pcv valve line to feed the car Seafoam. It also does this when I'm slowing down while driving and am almost at a complete stop. It will...

    Seafoam

    Just used Seafoam on my car and there was barely any smoke. I put in about 30 -40% of the can through the PCV line. After that there was no smoke so I just shut off the car and let it sit for a good 10 minutes. Fired up the revved a bit and finally started seeing the smoke. As I turned out of...
