2010年7月27日 · Chevrolet Cobalt XFE, the base model doesn’t have A/C. Currently there’s a 4k rebate on 2010 Cobalts. I picked up a Cobalt LS with A/C and an automatic trans in February with 5.5k in rebates (3k for the Cobalt, 1k for Toyota owners, …

2025年1月29日 · So much rust that I had to bring back the car to Mavis and demand a refund. But like the guys on here say: having the shop provide parts will most likely result in your favor should things go south. Btw: I tried another Indy shop when I had a 2012 Camry and the shop installed the brake pads incorrectly which resulted in squeaking.

2024年12月13日 · I’ve occasionally contemplated buying a small 12 volt portable refrigerator/ freezer for my road trip car,15-20 quart size. I now use an ordinary Coleman ice chest, starting each trip with a pile of “blue-ice” blocks which otherwise live in my home freezer. Of course, once I’m on the road a few days, they are warned up and …

2024年1月3日 · By storing your car keys, fob or card in an aluminum tin (even grandma’s old biscuit tins), or a special signal blocking box, the signal between the car and key will probably be blocked. This means thieves can’t intercept it and clone a new fob to steal your vehicle. If you’re out and about, then a Faraday pouch is your best friend.

2024年12月12日 · How did your car get to 100% water concentration in cooling system? Working on the vehicle that had been sitting for 5 years, and that had blown the trans cooler and you installed a new rad and had to drain it a few times for various reasons while dealing with multiple issues including the trans that had coolant mixed in the ATF, didn’t want to waste money on coolant until you new you weren ...

2013年5月30日 · Hello Car Talk Community, I have a 2006 Dodge Stratus and recently lost my transponder key for my ignition. I do have a spare key cut but it doesn’t have a chip in it, I can only use it to unlock the doors and open the trunk. What I want to know… is there: A way to disable/bypass the theft prevention system so I can use the non-chipped key in my ignition? a way I can modify my key to trick ...

2007年12月11日 · Guess instead of thinking about the simplest car I should think more of the most reliable car w/ low maintenance costs. And that subject has long been well covered here on the board many times. Anyway, not unhappy with my Impala, just trying to think ahead about electronic glitches as it gets beyond warranty in a few years down the road.

2007年8月16日 · 1973 is really the last year for simple to work on american cars (earlier in California). After that, a typical american car required a dizzying number of emissions devices, many of which actually made the car run worse and most of which were prone to failure or required lots of adjustments.

2010年8月25日 · Water IS the best at transferring heat. However, plain water has an issue with localized boiling due to surface tension. It needs a surfactant to counteract that issue. Which is why you see racers using products like Water Wetter to reduce surface tension and prevent localized boiling.

2014年11月7日 · I went to two different mechanics and one told me that you can run your car in the summer with just water, HOWEVER you can’t get away with that during the winter which apparently is when you need the anti-freeze the most. Then another mechanic told me the polar opposite that it’s the winter when you can use water instead of anti-freeze and you’ll be ok whereas summer you need anti-freeze ...
