    Real Bad Gas Mileage!

    Update on my car. My dealer just told me that my car was reading high in carbon. So they "de carbonized it" and told me to just drive it normal and check the gas mileage at the next fill up. I hope this works. I did noticed a lot of wispy white smoke coming from the exhaust after I turned...

    Remote Start

    This is my first posting. I like my remote start. Once you open the door and get in, you need to first turn the ignition cover thing two turns, then you can put your foot on the brake and start driving. If you step on the brake before turning the ignition cover, the car turns off. Anyway, I...
