Re: problems at 100k? (huyvu90)

Most Common Method of Entry in Stealing Hondas

I think it's through the hood. Just get at the hood release cable, disconnect the battery (to disarm the alarm). The car is yours.

What else are thieves doing nowadays?

You need new ones when you take it in and they tell you that they can't get a good enough scrape on the lathe.

Re: if i change my tranny oil will it make it shift better? (BlazeTeck2000)

If you have an auto, change it every 20K miles. Else, you might lose your tranny. 2K to replace.

Don't mess with these things. You...

Re: 87 steering wheel shakes (elmalouno)

If this happens at high speed, it's your wheel balance.

If this happens when you step on the brakes, your rotors are out of round.

In no way is this the wheel alignment.
