The CVT is designed to deliver good fuel economy when driven the exact way that the government fuel economy test is driven. Sounds as if you've found that sweet spot driving 3000-3500 rpm. IN EVERY other way, a CVT is a disaster. They rob performance, mileage, and reliability. The entire first half...

Ever drive out to the coastline? yes, the Caspian Sea is near usually on weekends we go there another option is the Persian Gulf it is far away in the south but I plan to there soon. I am just...

I finally changed my belt tensioner and first want to thank Old Tech for the invaluable advice he shared about the process.

The best access to the bulbs is by removing the front bumper and removing the headlights themselves so you can adequately reach the back of the headlights for bulb access. It's a pain for what should be a simple task. This is why it's a good idea to get LED or HID bulbs because they last a lot longe...

Dang. I always thought these were LED and not actual filament bulbs.

The gear box is working fine, no odd sounds or anything. Shifts nicely but when I shift it into park the gear box goes into park fine but the gear lever or...
