    Re: Can you Believe this is a Hyundai

    I first became aware of servicing an automatic transmission in the early 1970's when one of my neighbors in an adjoining apartment had to have his transmission replaced after it had failed due to...

    Re: Can you Believe this is a Hyundai

    Gentlemen, I did a little research and found the BG Transmission Service explanation of what they do and the "benefits" of using this type of service on an automatic transmission.

    As we are all...

    Re: Can you Believe this is a Hyundai

    That's exactly what happens Klasse Act with a BG Service. They do hook up the trans to a machine that drains all of the old fluid out of the trans. Then they cycle through a cleaner to the trans an...

    Re: Can you Believe this is a Hyundai

    It's kind of weird that Ford did not include a dip stick to check on the transmission fluid. The dealer told me that he checked it when he bought the car but nevertheless I took it to my local repair...

    Re: Can you Believe this is a Hyundai

    Thank you Klasse Act! I've wanted a Mustang GT since they came out with the retro style back in 2005. I got back into Mustangs in 2008 after a serious medical event in which I had my Thyroid Gland...

    Re: Can you Believe this is a Hyundai

    I like these wheels very much myself. There are no options on this car as everything comes standard. The Veloster offers an R Model with some minor interior and exterior appointments but both Sarah...

    Re: Can you Believe this is a Hyundai

    Prior to her owning the Mini Cooper S she had a Toyota Rav 4 which she had driven the same way and never had any mechanical issues with that vehicle. The Service Dept. at the Mini dealership told her...

    Re: Can you Believe this is a Hyundai

    Yes, the Veloster is the Turbocharged version. It is very quick especially when you need to merge into beltway traffic doing 60 mph. She actually enjoys driving this car more than the Mini. Because...

    Re: Can you Believe this is a Hyundai

    Reliability was a major concern for my daughter. While her Mini Cooper S only had 23,000 miles on it she had numerous mechanical and electrical issues with this car. Fortunately for her all of these...

    Re: Can you Believe this is a Hyundai

    My daughter recently traded in her 2010 Mini Cooper S for a 2014 Hyundai Veloster. We saw the Veloster at the Motor Trend Car show in Baltimore in February. She fell in love with this car and bought...

    Re: Removing dried in egg from paint

    I would clay the car first before even using the adhesive remover or the light paint solvent. I've always believed in using the least invasive methods first.

    The paint solvent I am using is...

    Re: Removing dried in egg from paint

    This happened at 9:30 PM after our club meeting. I'm the detail guy they all go to for advice or to have me work on their cars. I used Griot's One-Step which is a mild polish and paint sealant and...

    One of the members of my Mustang Club was showing me his 2012 Mustang GT that recently had eggs thrown at it from kids in his neighborhood. While he doesn't know exactly who did this several other...

    Many years ago I only used paste wax as I felt it was going to give me a longer lasting shine than a liquid wax. When I finally tried the liquid waxes and sealants I realized that I was getting the...
  25. Re: Meguiars Ultimate Paste Wax durability review

    It's funny that you should mention Griot's Best of Show Carnuba wax being hard to remove. The first time I used it I had that problem! Even Griot's admits that it can be hard to take off sometime...
