"If the Cincinnati Reds were really the first major league baseball team, who did they play?" -- George Carlin

Bump. Another great Ken Block video. :)

Bud, no one forgot anything. Again, we weren't talking about scissors jacks. Drop it.

I didn't forget to mention anything. No one was talking about a scissors jack.

Welcome to the Corolla Forum! :thumbup::):thumbsup::clap::thumbup1::balloon::party::rockon:

Make sure you don't use the jack to keep the car in the air, as they aren't designed for that and the hydraulic fluid seals inside the jack can rupture. The result is of course that the car can then come crashing down on you. :thumbdown: Always use jack stands with the appropriate weight rating...

Magnets could scratch the paint.

Welcome to the Corolla Forum! :thumbup::):thumbup1::clap::thumbsup::party::balloon::rockon: What is, Toyota Auto2000 Jakarta?

If you live in any of the New England states, you need to read this article and then take action, i.e. contact your state representatives before a disaster strikes! I had thoughts of moving back to New England, but not anymore. I didn't know this situation was so serious. For everyone else...

A word of caution for you regarding wheel spacers. Every auto center I have managed over the years has had very strict policies from the corporate headquarters legal department regarding the installation of wheel spacers, i.e. don't do it. Wheel spacers move the center of the load of the wheel...

What about the lack of control/swaying at higher speeds problem?

The increase in fuel economy and the reduction in engine noise comes from the increase in lubrication that AMSOIL provides vs. Mobil 1 and other competing oils. Also, an infrared temperature gun typically shows a 20-50 deg. F. reduction in engine temperatures when moving up to AMSOIL synthetic...

I once had a noise coming from under the hood of my car and it went away. I pulled over to investigate and found the alternator had literally snapped in half! The alternator bearing had gone bad, (where the noise was coming from), and then seized, snapping the alternator in half, making the...

OBJ - Is the environment your Corolla in over 100 deg. F.?

OBJ - When did the noise start occurring and what was done with the car just before the noise started occurring? With a 2005 Corolla, Toyota engineers specify a preferred viscosity of 5W-30 in environments of -20 deg. F. to 100 deg. F. Why is 20W-50 being used instead? An oil that thick...

How else could the electronic device be secured to the hood?

Cars don't fix themselves. The noise being gone could be a very bad thing.

Pardon?

Thank you for the testimonial. Here are test results of AMSOIL vs Mobil 1 and other synthetic oils on the market. You can decide for yourself if Mobil 1 is still in the top tier of oils or not, or if it even comes close to AMSOIL, "The First in Synthetics", (tm) :thumbsup::)...
