06 Corolla puzzling creaks at start-up by
Dan[_6_]
I'm getting sometimes creaking noises coming from under the glove-box
area for about 10 seconds after start-up.
Car has digital climate control, so I suspect it's some actuator
involved in this creaking.
Other than the funny noise, the HVAC works OK.
Any ideas? Cause for concern that a part is soon...

vacuum leak by
Tom Del Rosso[_3_]
1992 Plymouth - There's a vacuum leak in my brake pedal, which I can
hear when I push hard on it. Is it likely to be just a gasket or hose,
or something expensive? The car is old so I might junk it, but I want
to get an idea of how much this should cost.
Thanks.

TPMS ? by
Bob[_53_]
Hi,
Will be bringing car in to have tires rotated, and thought it might be a
good idea to know something about this first:
Re TPMS and tire rotation:
a. does the monitor go with the tire it is in now, or must the rubber be
taken off the rim to get at the sensor, and thus be able to move it to...

Offboard hybridization by
AD[_2_]
A thought occurred to me last night: why do you need to bother with
lugging a huge battery onboard
when you could just flush the battery and the motor(s) into the floor
of a purpose built trailers.
This solves the the hard winter starts problem and awd (lack of it)
problem for BRZ in winter

Is it still okay to leave the car in On, without starting it? by
micky
Back when there were ignition points, it was bad (at least there was a
25% chance it was bad) to leave the ignition on when the car wasn't
running. When they got rid of points, it wasn't bad anymore. But
that was 30 or 40 years ago.
Is it still okay to leave the car in On, without...
