Hi: Has anyone tried the BioDiesel from the Utopia retail location in Unionville (Hwy 7 and Kennedy Rd., Greater Toronto Area)? Does this diesel variety gel in low temperatures? Or is it ok if a diesel fuel conditioner like Stanadyne is added to it to prevent gelling? Should I use just regular...

Let me know if I'm having paranoid delusions again, but the voices in my head tell me that one of the more valuable contributors to this group is deliberately ignoring my posts. It all seemed to began after I expressed sincere appreciation for some timely advice, but refused to remit a...

Anyone know of something that will inflate my tires all to the same tire pressure. The gas station air pumps put out a lot of air and I never get all my tires at the same pressure - they are usually differ by 1 or 2 psi. Some gas stations use to have dial air pumps you put in the psi you want and...

My girlfriends 91 Jetta is smoking up a storm upon start up and sometimes it loads-up while driving and lets out a BIG cloud of white smoke. It recently got a new head and had work done to the exhaust system. It also just passed southern California smog with flying colors. Please any help would be...

Hi again folks. Now that I've finally completed my clutch job, replaced the mysteriously absent drive flange springs/thrust washers, and fought the good fight with Bentley Publishing over product support, the old GTI is on the road again...but...

Hello - Went to purchase a replacement wheel bearing and asked for the grease seals and the guy at AutoZone told me they are "built" into the bearing assembly?? Has anyone else run into this? Are new grease seals not needed when replacing the old bearing with a newer bearing that's now been...

I can't believe I did this. It was parked in the driveway and I backed into the front of it with our 2001 Toyota Highlander. The bumper on the truck met the Cabriolet in the hood and grill. It busted the head lights and smashed in the front of the body a little. She's so ****ed at me. The...

My trunk lid was rattling when I drove on bumpy roads so I tightened it up by moving the bar that the latch grabs onto down just a bit. 99% of the time I open the trunk by using the remote release in the car. Everything was fine for about a month after adjusting the latch then one day I hit the...

The issue has been going on for a while (smelly air, moisture blowing into the cabin, etc...) for a few days. This morning, the AC started to make a clicking sound that went away when I turned it off. I turned it back on and heard a belt squeal for a few seconds, then the car stalled. Now, the car...

I bought a cheap (200 quid) 1991 Golf 4+E a couple of weeks ago, so wasn't that surprised when it stopped working. The previous owner told us it was due for a service but I ended up driving it more than I should have before looking at it, and I think I killed it. I've only ever tinkered with...
