  Do I need a 2500 or will a Hurricane 1500 do?

  By Redfour5

  I had a 2021 1500 Hemi and traded it because I did NOT feel totally comfortable pulling my 30 foot travel trailer at about 8K weight and 800 tongue. I've been towing for over 20 years as I progressed in size and weight for TT's. I WAS within specs on the 1500 so that was NOT the problem. But I took the trailer out on about a 5K mile trip and at 68, I said, nope, not doing it. It was that <1% of the time that the trailer was in control unexpectedly that did it. IF you tow you likely know what... Read more

  Vacuum Switch B23F

  By Superloop

  1983 242 b23f lh2.1 w/ Chrysler ignition. Can someone tell me what this is? I cannot find a definitive answer. It definitely seems factory, but is capped. Best guess so far has been an unused over pressure or charge air overpressure switch as if my car was to be turbo’d but wasn’t. Could also be possible related to ignition or egr?

  2025 RX350 Regular or Premium fuel?

  By wacky9

  I purchased a new 2025 RX350. The dealer told me that premium fuel was required. The increase in mpg would offset the added cost of fuel. Is this factual?

  B6304s timing gears seem to not be in line and power steering air

  By Dosmanx2

  i recently bought a 1994 volvo 960 3.0 700 bucks that had been left in a field for around 5 years and immediately replaced the timing belt and wp as you do with an early whiteblock, but i notice the timing gears seem to be axially misaligned where the passenger side sits ahead of the belt and the driver side allmost flush. Any clue why and what should i do? Also i replaced my steering rack it was fine before but it seems to keep getting air in the system after rotating a turn and a half... Read more

  Tesla Universal EVSE Connected, but 12V battery drained

  By Demian Johnston

  I have recently installed a Tesla Universal Wall Connector, and for the first time left my Clarity plugged in to it overnight. This morning I woke up to find my 12V battery drained! I found an old thread where folks have seen their 12V drain when plugged in to Juicebox’s in certain configurations (load sharing?) Has anyone else experience 12V drain while plugged in? Could this be a bug in handshaking between the Tesla Wall connector and our Clarity? thanks for thoughts!

  Noisy m41

  By Amazon driver

  Hello. I’m dealing with rattling and whining on a D-type M4 in 3rd gear all other gears are good. It shifts fine. Emptied out oil and found metal filings on plug magnet. It came out of a P1800 probably mid ‘60s, unknown mileage. What typically is the cause of this? I installed it on my ‘67 122s wagon with the drive shaft shortened and balanced.

  ADAS- Lane Center Assist- Incredible

  By STORMCHASER

  I just rented a G70 and was blown away by how good the lane assist centering is (I think Tech is proprietary to Hyundai). It's the smoothest I have seen. Questions: 1) Do all Genesis models have the same system, and do they all work as well as this G70 2) Does this exact technology exist in Hyundai or Kia, or does Genesis get something better? 3) What type of MPG are you seeing on the G70 with the 2.0 engine AWD. I never thought I would look at this brand, but after my rental was pretty... Read more
