Today my low coolant light came on with a loud beep and red flashing lights. Turns out the coolant reservoir was almost dry. I topped it off so I could get to work, but I seriously doubt that it will just go away. I've been through a water pump replacement before and it was a painless...

No engine details just yet, but here's what the thing will look like: http://www.autoblog.com/2015/01/07/2016-toyota-tacoma-photos/ No interior or engine details yet. But clearly this is just a facelift. I understand why, but damn this truck is from 2005 without a major frame or...

For the last 12 years I've been living either in or on the outskirts of the 5th largest city in the US, Philadelphia. I love this city. From its pivotal role in the history of the country to its immense and extremely diverse culture there's a lot to love about this place. Live country music...

http://www.autoblog.com/2014/01/13/2015-ford-f-150-debuts-aluminum-2-7-ecoboost/#continued http://www.autoblog.com/2014/01/13/2015-ford-f-150-detroit-2014/ Wow. That's a hell of a diet.

http://www.autoblog.com/2013/11/20/2015-chevrolet-colorado-la-2013/ Nice. Good engine choices. Good size. Supposedly the frame is 40% lighter than the Silverado one its based on, and the truck is 900 lbs lighter than the Silverado. The body is specific to NA. Diesel in the works. WIN.

WTB: (2) 17" Denver Wheels Looking for TWO Denver wheels to replace bent ones on my GTI. No bends, no curb rash. Small nicks OK, doesn't have to be 10/10 condition. I'll entertain a full set if two are in pretty good condition with no bends or rash. No tire or TPMS needed. Willing to pick up...

I personally am not interested in taking my car to the dealership any more due to them rejecting a repair to my control arm bushings, and setting me up with a shitty alignment that is causing extreme tire wear. Does anyone have a recommendation for an indie shop in the Philly area that could...

My car hasn't exactly been reliable. Now that its out of warranty, anything that could be a potential issue is making me paranoid. Anyways, here is what is happening. About a week ago I noticed my wipers were skipping across the windshield. Funny, I just replaced them with OEM blades about 2...

So on Friday coming home from work, I get a flat. Thanks to my awesome VW service department, I was actually able to change it on the side of the road (they didn't gun on the wheels, they were torqued properly). Saturday I show up and the dealership gives me a whole new tire covered by road...

Well I guess it didn't come in dead last. And it is a bit out of place in this comparison as the sole front drive vehicle. I think its a compliment to include it actually. But regardless. 6. Hyundai Genesis Coupe 2.0T R-Spec 5. Volkswagen GTI 4. Ford Mustang V-6 3. Mazda MX-5 Miata Grand...

Today I had off work, and decided that since I had nothing better to do, I would check out some of the windy, twisty roads that Southeast PA / Northern Delaware have to offer. Here was the route I took: Map I started in West Chester, PA on Route 824 with a cop tailing me. Great, no fun. Well...

Today I brought the GTI in for its 20k service. I got to the dealership late, disheveled from a long, tiring day at work. I had traveled out of my way through an hour of rush hour bumper to bumper traffic to get to this specific dealership, and I was exhausted. When the rental came around it...

This past Saturday a few friends and I met up at local cars and coffee meet. We met a few other people there and headed out to find the best twisty roads in PA. We left cars and coffee with the following crew: -Lotus Elise (leader) -A VERY heavily modified Lotus Elan -Porsche Boxster Spyder...

So I just noticed this, and I have no idea how long it has been like this... but I have a bunch of horizontal scratches on my windshield. If I had to guess I'd say they were from scraping ice, or possibly a gas station squeegee some time ago. It ticks me off because I'm using the same ice...

I was a bit unsure where to put this thread, but here goes. I'm looking for a way to stop the ESP light from flashing in the instrument cluster when its "disabled." I don't care if its actually still on, and that's not the intent of this thread. I actually like that its always on. I'd just...

Hi guys. I searched a bit but I didn't see any threads on this topic. I have a manual trans 2010 GTI, just over 2k miles on it. Its happened 3 times now, where I'm on the highway going about 65 MPH or so going around a bend, and the ABS will kick on. -First time, I just noticed the steering...
