A friend of mine complains that her car loses coolant. She uses water and apparently has to top-up quite often. The thing is, according to her, the water level decrease is pretty un-predictable. In some occasions the level stays the same after a trip and on others it goes down from a few notches to almost empty.
a.) What's going on here?
b.) Is this because of using water instead of coolant?
c.) Is the car due for a leak test? If so where can one get it done?
Nissan might close down operations in 12 -14 months? https://www.carscoops.com/2024/11/nissan-exec-says-we-have-12-or-14-months-to-survive/ Are we going to see more companies shutting down or is this a one off. So much for the new GTR and the new Patrol.
Is there an alternative to the Maruti 800? A friend of mine is looking for an extremely cheap to run and fix car for around 1.5M. While I do advocate old Japanese cars in that budget - if his need is basic A-B motoring at the lowest possible cost - maintenance wise and with fuel - is there any other option that I am forgetting?
Does anyone know how exactly this is supposed to work? They haven’t really started brand new imports again right?
Pricing seems relatively fine in the grand scheme of things, given how 10/15 year old cars are still pretty expensive in our market
A guy advertises a mileage blocker on the quick site saying that his device blocks the vehicle mileage from changing on the odometer. Is it legal to advertise stuff like this?
