    crasheddd

    liability means that if it is YOUR FAULT in the accident you have to pay for repairs, if its not YOUR FAULT the other guy's insurance should pay to get your vehicle repaired. In fact, I had liability on my 88 corolla and when it got plastered by the tow truck with no insurance, my insurance...

    Electric problem, lights dim randomly

    I could swear when I'm driving around at night my headlights dim for a brief second almost like they are off but then they are back on again. I am suspecting the battery, but would like other opinions as well.

    Gas tank only filling up halfway

    If the pump is stopping making you think its full, pull the pump out a little bit and start it again.

    "Riding the clutch"

    Heel to Toe Shifting is when you put your right foot in a position that it can hit the break and gas quicker. By using your toes you can press the brake and you can use your heel to hit the gas. Its a racing technique that can help with downshifts and prevent you from losing speed taking corners...

    "Riding the clutch"

    "slipping the clutch" is sort of a racing term, it means you SLOWLY release the clutch (at the same time you are putting moderate to high throttle) when you launch your car, it helps with traction problems (by slowly delivering power to the car, instead of giving the car a jolt) with FWD/RWD...

    "Riding the clutch"

    This is a n00bish question, but what exactly is it? Is riding the clutch when you hold in the clutch at stops or is it when you don't pull the shifter out of gear when you stop? I've been driving manuals for 3 years and never really figured out exactly what it ment.

    3rd gear is a b*&$ when it's cold ...

    First mod done, and a jerky Pro5?

    I have the same problem, but its a bigger problem when I first start driving the car, once the engine is warmed up it pretty much dissappears. I'm thinking my issue might be spark plugs.

    Rear Bumper

    Try buffing it out with one of those $15-$20 buffers from Walmart. This worked like a charm when I got hit going to work when some dumbass didn't pay attention and hit my ass end.

    When do I need to run premium?

    Most cars actually suggest 87 octane, but I see people run 85 all the time, my friends do it. and I did it in my 88 Corolla all the time and saw no problems, until the tow truck hit it :) I honestly wouldn't recommend it unless you don't care about the car, I run midgrade all the time.

    BlueMP5Dave's Car is Dead

    Glad to hear your wife is alright. I wonder how the hell the SUV was damaged? I'd think a suburban would just roll over the top of a P5, guess I was wrong. Scion Tc VS Mazda3 Sedan I'd hands down pick the Tc. However, I might choose the Mazda3 if its the sport wagon..cuz I have a major problem...

    What have you done to your P5 today?

    ehh I dunno...white gets pretty dirty fast too. Black shows water spots and salt better, but White shows dirt the best.

    Just picked up my P5

    I like black or white the best for P5s, but Blue is definitely the most unique color out of all the choices. Of course I don't own a black, white or a blue one LOL Welcome to the board (thumb)

    I Total'd the P5

    Whats worse is having someone driving drunk AND wanting to race you. This happened to me about a year ago in the Talon. Idiots I swear.
