    Really need your advice whether my daughters car is safe to drive or not as she needs to return to school later this morning

    Not a big deal, however, if the engine light blinks off and on then that is a problem. Have you checked all vaccum hoses? Have you conducted a smoke test? If the smoke gets sucked in especially around the intake, the intake gaskets need to be replaced.This is a common problem for these and other...

    Dealer charge for loading tires

    The price of $2000.00 is highway robbery. Do not allow them to load the tires, if you purchase the machine. If it has a backhoe, there is NO need for loaded tires, the backhoe is sufficient weight for traction. If you decide to load the tires I suggest 'beet juice' it is non corrosive and...
