    Dirty cars - or using them how they are meant to be used!

    I have always liked sporty wagons that have some utilitarian value. the interior must be as clean as possible, but the exterior? No way! I haven't owned a car in more than ten years, but my last car was a well used and enjoyed passat wagon. Then, on this forum I saw sjg's 2009 Copper Red...

    WeatherTech DigitalFit 2nd/3rd row floorliner fit issue

    That's what I was thinking. I am just about to buy all weather floor mats, but would definitely not be happy with poor fit.

    Need GPS Navigation recommendations

    I have the iPhone 5, and though the GPS on it is very good, I felt that I couldn't use the phone for other tasks and GPS at the same time that well.

    Steering wheel plastic trim 2009

    Just bought a 2009 Touring AWD and though it is in generally very clean condition, the piano black plastic covers on the steering wheel over the audio buttons are heavily worn and pitted so that the top surface feels more like fin grit sandpaper as opposed to smooth plastic? ^not my photo but...

    Really considering a CPO CX-9

    Thanks a lot for the advice. I am reluctant to revisit the issue with the brakes with this dealer, but probably will at some point soon - as they are only going to get worse. I've read that others have upgraded rotors and pads after the warping issue recurred for them. Maybe something to...

    Really considering a CPO CX-9

    Also, just read here in the forums that the car should probably have new tires and brakes to pass CPO. Mine has the original duellers with 35k miles. Of course the dealer said the tires are fine...
