Re: BKs New Car
Mine, the Mazda, seems to drop the revs pretty quickly, but then revs the engine back up briefly. It's the oddest behaviour ever, but I think my Focus did the same thing. Something wants to tell me it's related to emissions and properly controlling them. I work daily on getting smooth shifts without...

Re: BKs New Car
How about a long in the tooth Datsun 370Z? Nobody would be able to tell that it was used. They've stayed visually unchanged for the better part of a decade.

Re: BKs New Car
I don't recall an egregious amount of rev hang in my friend's Jetta, same powertrain I assume, but then my memory may be colored by the fact that I was driving a wholly noncompliant Kia at the time. The Jetta was far easier to drive than my Kia. Friend tried to make me believe it was a sporty rig. H...

Re: BKs New Car
I feel your pain. If it's the same manual as was in the 2011 2.5 Jetta I GET IT. Two overdrives effectively hide any power that exists and you're not going to pass anybody unless you're in 3rd, or more likely 2nd, especially since the car is hhhhheeeeeaaaaavvvvvyyyyy.

I'd rather drive the Flintstones' car than... whatever that is.

Re: Misc Thread VI: Return of the Threadi
The overall diameter is the same and the bolt pattern identical. I'd rather just replace the one and then get better winter tires when the time comes, but might not happen.

Re: Misc Thread VI: Return of the Threadi
Pregunta: one of my tires just came into its SECOND puncture in 3 weeks; this one too close to the sidewall to repair (the fact that it's a second wound notwithstanding). Can I get away with just replacing the one, or should I do a pair? The tire shops that are open gave conflicting answers. Malcolm...
