I have the '10 "s" with 6 spd. I love this car. Previously, I had an '07 Reno with the standard 5-spd. As you would guess, there isn't much comparison between the 5 and the 6. There may be a better manual out there somewhere, but I don't need it; this one will do... It's almost like old-ma...

"You wouldn't want to run in RECIRC all day...". Okay, I've got more numbers for you. First, I started off as usual, and again had a 91F reading on the readout between the tach and speedo. As was expected, the output air was 50-ish. Then, with a stabilized system, I dropped both temp-knobs...

drbios: "...tube of an air conditioner near the floor...". This was the first thing I looked for after eliminating either the glove-box or anything in the overhead (like sunglasses in the holder-thing). I raised the hood and began wiggling the A/C line as it went into the fire-wall area. I...

tigerbangs54: "(did) you have the A/C in the RECIRC mode?" No. I ususally leave it on Fresh Air. To be sure, you are quite correct in that RECIRC works faster. I wasn't looking for maximum performance, just curious about how good it does under average conditions (around here, anyway) with ...

tigerbangs54: "Has anyone from a hot climate had any experiences with their A/C?" I got the thermometer (a/c in-dash from AutoZone, $6.99) and a watch and found the following: It is just past noon, and the car is parked on black ashpalt, windows closed. The dash readout indicates 91 F. The...

drbios: I'm not sure I should respond to your questions. Officially, I no longer hear the Klunk! You may recall that Suzuki's factory rep drove my car and said, more or less, "Rattle? What rattle? We don't hear no stinking rattle! WE DON'T GOT TO FIX NO STINKIN RATTLE!! And they didn't. Yes, th...

"we only have Shell..." Shell works for me, too. My conversion to BP 93 came about because my local Shell station was one of the first in this area to go with the 10% ethanol mix. Wanting to avoid that stuff, if possible, I tried BP because theirs didn't add in the ethanol YET. Then, as a ...

KizashiSLS11: "Has anyone tried higher octanes?" I have... I use BP's 93 almost exclusively. I read in the O/M that 87 octane, as mentioned above, is the "minimum" acceptable rating. This implies, but does not state, that higher is better. It is my considered opinion that, after ...

Chockysmudge: "Is the video too big...?" No, I'm too dumb... I am not computer-literate. If I can't get it done with left clicks, it don't get done. I don't use the computer for the video camera at all. I use a 4 gig Sandisk chip to record on, and then use the three-color (red, white, yell...

Hawkzilla: "...have you looked up the "lemon law"...". Yes, I'm aware of that. The Suzuki rep said that if he couldn't fix my noise, he would then process the paper-work for Arbitration. I went through this process with a '96 Honda Accord EX 5-Spd Coupe that lost all hydraulic br...
