Recently purchased this car and was wanted to upgrade my exhaust. I have found some videos of a custom magnaflow exhaust that sounds deep rich and great. Just wanted to know how to get that custom exhaust or any suggestions for a great exhaust for my fusion.
I have a huge issue. Started to act funny and begin to be sluggish… I took it into a mechanic. They found and oil pressure line unplugged and reconnected to only find it running worse. There is no codes, nothing. Anyone with similar experience?
What should I look for?
1) VR6 or 1.8t (what’s more reliable and faster stock)
2) what year of the MK4’s if any particular ones are better.
3) what I should also look for???
I have pretty much diagnosed my BMW that I have a sticky lifter or maybe valve. I was told that since it isn’t that bad. (Doesn’t tick everyday) I should use Seafoam. I was told to put it in the oil. I thought Seafoam was used to clean through the gas tank? Any experience with this have comments. How shall I approach his problem? Thanks!
Knocking in engine bay. I have a video but can’t post it on here for some reason. We are 90% sure it’s the rocker arm, and could be piston also. I don’t know what to do. If my car roast? Did I like lost all that money? Anyone else have this problem?
The tranny is shot and I am searching for a replacement. I found a 2002 VW Jetta Wagon 2.0L. Will this transmission work in my 01? They guy I’m buying it from said yes it should. Want to be 100% on this.
I always have to hardest time naming my cars. This Jetta is a red. A lighter red. I think I want to name her Rose or Rosemary? Any other names you can think of like Rose? Or any other names you think I should name it? (It’s a girl)
Bought this today and the 2nd to 3rd gear shift is very rough. Would anyone have any idea what is wrong? How to fix this? And anyone know if this is okay to drive like this?
I own a 2006 BMW 325i (6 Speed Manual). Has 121,000 miles. Just replaced the stock spark plugs. Installed new water pump, thermostat and coolant. Assuming everything is stock, unless changed with the 50,000 mile lease it had from the dealership. What other things should I replace? Like oils. Says the manual transmission fluid is lifetime, but that cant be true. Should I replace it? Also, what about my rear diff? Anything thing else need maintance?
Looking to buy a cold air intake for my 2007 Mazda 3, any suggestions?
Looking to add some modifications do my car, any ideas?
