9-speed gearboxes save how much fuel? by
[email protected]
8-speed automatics have been around in German cars for a while.

new fuel economy regulations. I saw one claim that they would save

transfer the best choice would be the bare aluminum. If it has paint
on it it seems like the paint would...

bad smell in car from vandalism by
Jud McCranie
A week ago vandals spread feces on my car's windshield. I used a
pressure washer on it and have been through a car wash twice, but it
still has a bad smell inside. It may have gotten into the air intakes
or something. Are there any suggestions for getting rid of this
smell?

Came with the standard wheels, which I imagine are termed "Alloy"
Just noticed that I lost the center part of one of them. This is the
