Thanks for being a tripfag so I can filter your stupid ass.

Initially I was just as skeptical as you (although I didn't have a stick up my ass)
After watching a gameplay video I am mildly anticipating it.

It actually started and ran. Must have been all the bits of corrosion that fell around the pole or something.
Thank you.

Hi, /g/ here.
I was driving on the road and it is hot as fuck, the tire blew and I had to do an emergency parking.
What is a probable reason for this? Also is it safe if I use the spare tire and continue?

What makes the Escalade worth 100k?
I basically just see it as a more-beautifully dressed and stuff-added Tahoe.

Because that's what customers are willing to pay. Cadillac is more interested in you leasing so they can sell it again afterwards.

So, tried to start my car today, a couple of days it ran fine but since this morning it seems to almost start, i turn the key to start it for 1-2 secs and it gets to 600rpm while normally it starts instantly, its a fiat from 2010. Did the recent cold kill my spark plugs/battery or should i just hold the key longer?
Pic not related, just a riced version of my car

How much more dangerous is the Golf GTI than the standard model? Trying to persuade my Dad to allow me to buy a Mk2 GTI, but he only sees it as a more deadly version of an already old car. This is my first car, btw.

Its just a golf with better handling and a more powerful engine.
>>
>>16227790
better handling means its safer.
Tbh you can drive a lamborgini with a stuck throttle on weightsaver tyres from one end of europe to another without any accidents.
It's all about the driver not the car. MR2 is regarded as a unsafe car only because idiots tend to not understand the car and enjoy crashes in it

Move the fuck out then you can buy whatever.

None, all they were for was cheating EU emissions regulations. Now that is changing slightly larger engines are returning.

A 1.5L turbo doesn't actually get better economy than a 2.5L naturally aspirated engine though, don't kid yourself

Oh wow 1.2l to 1.5l. Big engines are really making a come back.

fucking kill me /o/, this shit better not cause a huge fucking oil leak. why do idiots like me even try to do their own work on cars, should have ponied up the extra money and gone to a mechanic. can you guys please pray for me? I sanded and polished the scratch to make sure it didn't snag on anything, all that's left now is to put it back together and hope it doesn't start leaking.
times you fucked up while wrenching thread?

Seriously how stupid are you?
Cam shafts don't cause oil leaks either.
Lrn 2 car
>>
>>16226817
The cam's covered by a seal, if the scratch snags the seal then the seal will fuck up and start leaking. I didn't literally sand down the scratch to nothing, just hit it with some extra fine paper to make sure it didn't catch.

hey aut/o/, (somewhat) new guy here, i want to get more into cars and eventually get a replacement for my 1999 malibu daily driver that's something fun i can work on. so i'm here to ask you guys where you learned your car terminology, techniques, etc. My uncle's a mechanic but we rarely have time to hang out and i'm sure he doesn't want to bother talking about his work while he's off the clock. Also I'm in college, so I might look around and see if there's any auto beginner classes I can take. none of my current friends are into cars and I highly doubt I'd be able to make any gearhead friends if I don't have anything special myself.
i've learned some things i've picked up from watching shows like initial d, playing some games, and attempting to work on my own car, but the specifics still look foreign to me. (i.e. words like twin-cam, exhaust headers, intake manifolds, high compression pistons, coilovers, etc.)
any info helps, i'd love to hear your stories. thnx guise

Miata.
Put supercharger.
>>
>>16226791
i like miatas, but I don't think it'd be reasonable to have a 2 seater car right now. while it'd be nice to never have to drive my friends around again, I need the space.
I really like 240s. I know they're hard to come by (in good condition), but there's just something about them I can't get over. If miatas had 2 more backseats they'd be perfect.

>>16226785
Start by learning about your own car. Look up specifics. Learn your engine transmission suspension. Then if something goes wrong you can fix it.
You drive one of the most unreliable cars on planet earth. If it hasn't given you problems now it will.
