  1. what does the country of manufacture have to do with the quality of the paint? Factories are moved from one location to another not because they want to make the product that's of lesser quality. It's because they can cut down on labor costs, be closer to a major market, move to a placce with less environmental restrictions or be closer to the raw material, Apple products are made in China. Does that make their quality any less? Seriously, cut the crap.

    2000 Mazda Tribute

    do you have to bump up every single thread to ask about the fuel consumption of a galant? someone already answered your question so take the info and stop bumping up old threads ok?

    Engine Oil

    Somehow I find it hard to believe your problems stem from using the wrong type of oil....
  6. I think he just wants someone to chime in and say "yes, you should definitely do it since it will save your new tire."
  7. You drive a prius (well supposedly). Stop being a poser.
  8. Your mechanic is a retard who keeps asking you to change parts until something works out. First thing you would do is to find a better mechanic. Check and clean your PCV valve, IAC and EGR. See if that helps. You don't need to replace them with new ones. Just remove em and spray down with carb cleaner until it's clean. Also, was the intake manifold removed before you had this problem? Are you noticing any bubbles in the coolant reservoir?
  9. did he check the fuse before coming to this diagnosis? Also, just avoid the agent and take it to a good a/c shop. The cruze is the same as the swift so a decent shop will be able to sort it out for you. Knowing how the agent is, you will probably get ripped off if you go there anyway.
  10. For the record though, the brand new ones that I've seen come with a crappy factory radio/CD player.
  11. minister permit model? WTF is that? Great. Now everyone is going to refer to it as the minister permit model.
  12. well at least a vehicle that doesn't have a direct injection diesel motor in it....

    if you are worried about resale value you should buy an allion or premio. Usually the type of people that buy BMW aren't concerned about resale value, price of parts, fuel consumption etc.
  14. If the oil level is normal, start by removing and cleaning the oil pressure switch.
  15. Here's hoping he doesn't try to get a doctorate and get a teaching job. Your'll know the value of his education...
  16. Believe it or not, there is this guy running an old red nissan cube and it seems like he patched up a large spot using ordinary lacquer and a paint brush.
  17. I don't think you quite got my sarcasm.... Cars, is a pretty wide topic to be writing a paper on. If he was smart he would have taken one specific problem that can be researched locally. When writing a paper you really need to narrow down the topic. Cars, can be anything. You have to be specific like; The chemicals released during the process of painting cars and it's affect on the environment. The negative effects on the environment caused by oil leaking from engines and the monetary loss created by it.
  18. No wonder you got a crappy paint job done the first time. If you weren't such a cheap arse that wants the whole car painted for 40k, maybe you would have got it done right the first time.
  19. Also great job on picking such a narrow topic, "Cars."
  20. Aren't you supposed to figure what to write by yourself? since it's YOU who is actually writing the paper. If you have trouble figuring things out you should see your instructor. Has the quality of education in these mushroom universities depleted so badly, that students need to go on a internet forum to get help picking a topic to write about? Of all things, this is a dissertation for your MBA. At this up the education ladder, I would think you would be smart enough to not go to an automotive forum and ask incoherent questions about the topic you should write on for your dissertation. I hope you aren't writing this paper in English since you do have issues using a spell check. "Your'll" is not a word. It's 'You'll', which is short for 'you will'.
  21. I agree. The loading time is minimal now. Plus I haven't received an error message yet. Good job madz!
  22. I know a few things that are probably not worth trying. Self castration Suicide Jumping off a cliff to see if you can fly
