Is it true that for the second year in a row the protest rally for global warming was held in a freezing snowstorm??

That is why I figure it came from the factory. I bought it new in 06.

So today I was doing some scheduled maintenance, one of these was changing the plugs. Since the #4 plug was the closest to the tool box that was the one I started with. Keep in mind that this is the first time changing the plugs since I bought it new. With 22k miles on the clock I know I am...

Yea, that's what I got out of it too.

Are we still on for the 14th - 16th? I can make it on the 15th

He didn't outwit his wife, she finally got tired of the whining and wanted him out of the house more.

Great report! My very first mc ride went throught Duluth, Thunder Bay and International Falls. Brought back some great memories. Wife and I once camped at Itasca State Park a week before Memorial Day, it was about 40F that night. Brrr. Beautiful though.

You were right about the battery. Took the car to a nearby Autozone and they were happy to run a test on it. They said it tested bad so I bought one on the spot. Got it home and when I got the old one out it was about an inch shorter in length than the new one. :huh: The new one was 750...

Thanks a bunch Calimus. I appreciate all the info. I will take it to a different Advanced store than the one I usually use. The last time I took a car to have the charging system checked he whined that it looked like it was going to rain and didn't want to get his tester wet. After I prodded...

Thanks Radman. I don't think it is the carbon buildup. The wifey likes to step on it from the stop lights. She likes when the turbo kicks in. I guess I will have to take it in and assume the position. Thanks for the info.

My wife has been having some trouble with her 2004 Beetle. When the engine is cold it starts just fine. No problems. If she has been driving it and shuts it off to get gas, etc. (engine off for only a few minutes), it has a hard time starting. It acts like a low battery in that is slowly...

At first, to change the oil on my wife's VW Beetle it took 11 bolts (4 different types, torx, triplesquare, regular and then allen for the drain plug). That was just to remove the big pan under the engine. There was a hole designed in the pan that was near the drain plug but the oil would miss...

Better velcro your *** to the seat cuz it looks like when you whack the throttle on this thing it will leave you sitting on the pavement.

I spent alot of time in Dubai the last couple of years. Your write up was so accurate. I didn't have to get a licence, just got an international drivers license in the states that is good for a year. The only time I was ever "lucky" enough to go over there was in the summer and the heat can...

Is it me or does it seem impossible to get 410 cu.in. out of the size of that engine? The stroke must be a lot longer than it looks.

The guy in the huge helmet is hilarious. Thanks.

One thing you have to look at is "What causes accidents?" My guess is a large percentage is somebody doing something unexpected. Things like running stop signs, red lights, crossing lanes suddenly are big ones but stopping in a lane that has the right of way is an unexpected situation. When...

What I want to know is where do you find the rating of the dealership? Is it publicly available?

This sucks. RIP TWN.

Back in high school basketball we played a team that had a star center with the last name of ****. Our coach would always warn us to watch that big **** in the middle. Always got a good laugh, I am sure it was intentional.
