Thread: What did you do to your Car today?

why do you always get cool deals like this

Bought this since it's gonna be -30 tomorrow including wind.

I put some HEET in for the cold as well. Never had a problem even at -11°F (real temp) but why not, it's $1.77 a bottle.

Because I'm awesome

PS was whining because its so cold.. thought i something more under the hood for a second..

meow?

My car never whines or make's odd noises when it starts up in the super cold.

It's just really loud overall, intake is loud, exhaust is all funky with the high idle and stuff because it's trying to get warm.

As long as the engine internals don't make any noise who cares. I don't get a single tap, click, or knock starting it at -12°F. Just that power steering whines like mad for a minute or less depending on how cold it is. And this is coming from a pump that's so quiet during normal operation you'd think I have electric steering assist.

Drove.

Complained a bit about how cold it is out. Laughed a bit at the Tercedes I allude to in my sig. But it started right up too after men's group, which has me impressed. Even did some doughnuts in reverse.

Mine is out there complaining too. Just got it started with the remote on its own, only took it 3 attempts.

change or flush your PS fluid...sounds like its got moisture in it....my beater dodge does it anytime it gets below freezing....

Looked at the bish as i drove away to work

My fluid is new as of 6 months ago, and it doesn't get foamy as far as I know. I've checked it and I got little to none. I do have a leak but it's very slow and was up to the proper level on the cold mornings when it made the noise. I think the fluid is just so thick when it's that cold. It only makes noise once it's below like 5°F

Awesome. Thank you! I will defiantly look into that for a warmer weather peoject.

Plowed through a snow drift that was up to the headlights because the plow guy hasnt come to plow me out since it snowed 3 days ago.

Rotated tires on a 99 sable and diagnosed the "wobbly feeling" as a bad ball joint.

The end links are garbage on those Taurus's and Sable's too... I worked at a dealership when they were new and we'd get cars with a less than five thousand miles on them "clunking"... Idk what year they switched to plastic, but that was another mistake by Ford...
