    What is the worst car you ever owned?

    My family had a Ford laser in the late 80s/early 90s. It was a hateful little thing which I believe was just a rebranded Mazda Familia? It had no headrests, a 1.3L engine so weak you would have to turn off ac to climb some hills in my hometown (note hills, not mountains), and when my country...

    This fluid discussion came up recently between myself and a friend and we were talking about the same Aisin fluid. How has it been going for you? I ended up using genuine Subaru on my drain and fills since i got a case at a reasonable price at the time, doing fine about 35,000 km later

    Quality Aftermarket Bushing brands for Dodge/Chrysler?

    Not specific to this application, but i did try some siberian lower control arm and front sway bar bushings in the wife's 2015 Subaru Forester which is notoriously bad on front bushings. Well... the siberians are shot within 2 years and about 25,000 km. The whiteline in a different position on...

    Aisin ATF-SCV fluid for Subaru and Mitsubishi CVTs

    Thanks Thanks for the quick reply! I'm leaning more and more towards this Aisin fluid and either Delvac 75w-90 or M1 75w-90 for the front and rear diff. I'll prefer Delvac but it isn't quite as available. I had actually tried contacting Idemitsu to see if they were retailing a Subaru...

    Aisin ATF-SCV fluid for Subaru and Mitsubishi CVTs

    Hi good people, sorry to drag this up from the depths, but I haven't seen anything else related to this specific Aisin fluid and Subaru CVTs. How has it been going over the past 8 months? I'm due to change the CVT fluid in the wife's 2015 Forester NA (65,000km. probably qualifies as severe...
