Hi guys I need a new car for my daily I already own a 2011 Honda Pilot and a 06 4runner. I used to have a altima but it was robbed las month. and now I would like to own a sport car but Iam not sure. I am selling the honda and I was thinking to buy a 2017 4runner (49k in my country) but it have the same engine and not big upgrades so that turns me down a bit. But I saw a C63 amg in a good dealer with 16k km on it 2014 and for $46k. Yoy know guys I am not plenty sure ... with the yota I have never got a single problem and really low expenses. What do you recommend? the benz sounds so fckn good!! but will it be too expensive to run?

What's your idea of too expensive to run? If you are comparing it to your honda, then yes.
>>
>over $100k new
>$46k 2 years later

That alone should make you run.

I want to tow a project car with a car dolly, but problem is the wheel doesn't lock. It won't stay secure straight so will it be unsafe to tow with the car dolly? Is there a way I can somehow lock it in place?

The wheels are strapped down to the dolly. They shouldn't turn.

Seatbelt through the wheel. This is how heavy recovery guys do it when they tow semi tractors.

Any Subaru owners use this stuff?

I bought an 03 Forester recently. ~80k miles on the factory head gaskets. No coolant or oil leaks at the moment.

Will using this coolant additive now while I have no HG leaks help delay their failure? I'm hoping to get to ~100k miles so then I can get the gaskets done while the timing belt is being replaced.

>wanting to gum up your cooling system that's perfectly fine already.
Shiggy diggy. Just change the coolant every 1-2 years and you'll be fine.
>>
>>16507613
I was under the impression that this isn't for the health of the cooling system but for the gaskets. From what I can understand this stuff helps hugely with the bad headgaskets
>>
>>16507584 (OP)
>Any Subaru owners use this stuff?
Fur what it's worth, Subaru seems to require it after coolant replacement as indicated in: http://www.scoobyenthusiast.com/subaru-maintenance/all-about-subaru-cooling-system-conditioner-soa635071/

https://allwheeldriveauto.com/subaru-head-gaskets-problems-explained-part-ii/

There were probably two major different formulations in its history with one mentioned on a forum as being a relabeled british radiator stopleak additive. Both are in the category of stopgap measures but apparently they work. Fur how long, I don't know. From what others say on forums, the early version was the "chunky" and the other one was "not chunky".

https://forums.nasioc.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1351375

quote:"The bottle label states "Manufactured in England fur Subaru of America, Inc.". However, even the casual observer cannot miss the "Holts" embossed on the blue plastic bottle. So it would appear the SUBARU cooling system conditioner may be manufactured by Holts in the UK. Holts makes a product called Radweld. The Radweld bottle bears a striking resemblance to the SUBARU cooling system conditioner bottle (except fur the label)."

OP, please compare your Subaru bottle to the British brand bottle of RadWeld radiator stopleak additive. The bottles sure look similar. So it is probably a rebadged product. I guess that in the early days, Subaru needed a stopgap product right away, so it came out with the chunky formula. I guess that bought time for them to negotiate a deal with Holt to relabel their product for Subaru dealer use and presumably higher price. You know how much you paid for your Suby additive and you can look up the Holt product at UK amazon and wherever else for a price comparison. Pour it in and let your Subie enjoy some hair of the dog.

its really fun

it would be REALLY REALLY useful if you lived far away from a major city center and needed to commute to the city every day,

i just imagine flying from geneva to the lakefront airport in downtown cleveland in 30 min which would normally be well over an hour long car commute if the weather was good
