It's one of the worst Dodge vehicles sold on the market. Buy a Durango instead.

That was a waste of my time and a thread, faggot OP

I usually just run supertech walmart oil in my 97 gmc k1500. Its only 11 bucks for 5 quarts. Ive been thinking of running pic related in it on my next oil change because its only $3 more. Is this oil any good?
The truck has 165k miles.

>also

I run 5w30 and it seems to be about a quart low after 3000 miles.
Should I be running 10w30? I live in texas so its basically hot year yound.

You should be running 15w-40, the forums recommend it. That oil is good for 7500 miles, don't believe the 5k label.

existing tesla owners in mandate states will get them first. then

>tesla owners in other states
>new customers in mandate states
>everyone else.

everyone else will probably come sometime in late 2018 or early 2019

Given the questionable quality and quality control of existing uber-expensive Teslas, I'd be really dubious about a mass-market priced car. In particular, expectations of interior quality in the ~30k usd price range has gotten really really high and has seemingly required a lot of learning to get there: really doubtful Tesla hits that standard the first time out.

look man, there's such a thing as cars you that can afford to buy, but not afford to own. I wouldn't touch that unless I cleared 500k/yr. Now, if you do make that, then go for it.

do it
fix everything yourself
replace parts that go out with golf spares
see how long it runs

The rule of thumb is: if you cannot afford to buy two, you cannot afford to buy it.

hey there, /o/

long time lurker, first time poster here. i got into an accident today, my car is totaled, other driver is at fault, cops laughed because they were ten feet away and watched it all happened and refused to believe the lies of the lady who hit me and was trying to weasel out of responsibility.

now, how do i maximize the return on my vehicle when it comes to the insurance payout?

it was a paid off GMC Yukon with 174,000 miles on it, and i had kept that thing clean and running well since the day i got it over 125,000 miles ago.

kinda bummed since it was an absolute dream for long drives, and i had spent more on tire replacements than on any other repairs i'd done to it/paid to have done to it...combined.

I have a question, I just got this 1988 bronco for dirt cheap. I later found out that I has what I think is water vapor coming from the exhaust manifold. Any ideas.

Two things: 302's are known to leak from their valve cover gasket, make sure its not oil first, should smell like its burning oil. Check the color of your oil and Coolant, if it is water vapor its most definitely head gasket.

If that's the case then 302's are a dime a dozen just find a known good one and just do a swap.

What I know is I 100% should not drive this car until the situation is fixed, it could be one of many things causing the problem.

What I don't know is how fucked am I? What are best bets as far as DIY diagnosing and fixing the issue?

tl;dr halp

A P0300 is a random or multiple cylinder misfire.

This is most likely something that affects all cylinders. A list might include failing fuel pump, clogged fuel filter, any sensor that is taken into account when the computer determines fuel delivery (intake air temperature, MAP, MAF, etc). Might be lack of air due to a mouse nest in the air breather tube. Is there one coil or does each cylinder have its own coil? If one then that might be suspect.

>Help my car makes noises and feels weird ahh I've never turned a wrench in my life!

>>17411350
I'm just afraid of taking it into a shop where they can't know exactly what is wrong, and end up buying and replacing stuff that has nothing to do with the thing, and I end up paying a crap ton of money just to have the car fart out on me again with a same or different problem..

this car has been pretty stressful, I know they all go through this and she's 17 years old but I have no idea where to start, a while back my car wouldn't shift (manual) and I had a friend come help diagnose and replace the slave cylinder, we spend $20-30 getting a new cylinder and got the car working fine again..

based on my research and limited understanding, this problem feels more severe and less straight forward and I'm just not sure wtf to do , try and DIY it with the help of a friend or take it in or scrap it

help with car problem?

My 2006 Ford Taurus wont start. The battery seems fine, because the blower motor works well, radio is loud, etc. Car was making on loud click/thunk noise. I assume the starter.

I used this video to try to star the car
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XdKI1SsUjFs

Now the engine cranks but still wont start.

and the car was fine until I just tried an hour ago, maybe because it's super hot.

Test for spark and fuel, ground out a spark plug on the block and see if it sparks, put the car into run without starting it and listen to hear the fuel pump on top of the gas tank turning on

How's that 3.5 gallon tank feeling? Have you even tried running an impact gun with it?

are you going to build an insulated box to put it in so you can run it low noise?
