2008 sienna with piston slap on cold start and for about the first 15 min of driving then goes away. Got an extremely good deal on the van what oil is recommended for this noise? I was thinking a touch thicker like 5w 40 or should I just put 5w30 in it and try to ignore the sound? There's no...

Has anyone else seen this castrol ATF? It's full synthetic and supposedly works in CVTs and regular automatics. Would this work well in a Type IV Toyota transmission over the transmax multi vehicle import? It appears to be slightly thicker viscosity over valoline maxlife ATF.

I've got an 06 sienna 159k and I want to change the transmission fluid. It has a weird shift every so often completely random and sometimes has the down shift lag when taking off from a stoplight when not coming to a complete stop. The fluid is red but kind of dark. It was over filled by half a...

I've owned this 06 Nissan Pathfinder for about a year now and right when I got it I changed the transmission fluid over to the red jug Valvoline maxlife full synthetic ATF. Before I changed the fluid everything seemed good and shifted fine but since I've changed the fluid over it seems to not be...

I made a post yesterday wondering who made Carquest Red filters. Well today I picked up a case of napa PROSelects. And honestly they look similar but not quiet the same. I also have an old proselect which looks much different from the new proselect. Old proselect on the left new proselect in the...

Just purchased some CARQUEST oil filters. I think they are made by Purolator. I use these on lawn mowers. I used to use napa proselect until there price went up to over 4 bucks a piece. I noticed they are made in china. Does Purolator have a Chinese plant? They look better than a fram filter.

A customer just dropped off a toro zero turn riding mower for repair due to vandalism. A foreign substance was added to the gas tank making it run poorly. I pulled the dipstick and notices a near florescent green motor oil which I've never seen before I've always known oil to be either clearish...

I replaced the carbuerator, spark plug, fuel lines, and carbuerator gaskets where it mounts to the engine. This thing refuses to run correctly every single one of these weedeaters I get that somebody wants me to fix for them never run right. But this one is by far the worst. I have to have the...

Is there really a difference between OEM Briggs air filters and cheap Chinese ones. They look very similar and quality seems nearly identical. Is there really a difference or are they stamped out of the same Chinese factory with different names printed on them.

I have a push mower that I got for free that smokes a little and knocks when it runs. What additive would help with both? I was considering either the grey high mileage stop or blue regular bottle stp oil additive since it's super cheap and really thick and has good reviews. Are there any other...

I need a new throwout bearing for this truck. I was debating between valeo and luk clutch kits. The valeo looks a little better having a fully sealed pilot bearing vs the luk being a shielded bearing. LuK 04-071 Clutch Set LUK KIT Valeo 52152206 OE Replacement Clutch Kit VALEO KIT

I have a 06 Pathfinder and I want to inspect the transmission filter and magnets after 127k miles. Nissan wanted 45 for just the gasket and eBay wants 30 for it. Is this thing using gold to seal it??? I've seen rubber gaskets at Napa for around 5 bucks would these work? Can I reuse the old one...

My 06 Nissan Pathfinder needs another battery I put a autocraft gold 750CCA in it thinking it would last since the last one I bought for a different car is going on 8 years strong but I was wrong the battery has already crapped out in less than 2 months it stays at 13ish volts for about 5...

I've got a 2006 Nissan Pathfinder SE 4WD with the potential problem of coolant and transmission fluid mixing in the cooler in the bottom of the radiator. I was wondering if I can get away with just bypassing the radiator cooler and adding a Hayden 679 external cooler. I feel like it would keep...

I just went to Walmart to get more Valvoline MaxLife DEX/MERC full synthetic ATF and I noticed the bottle looked different. Was there a change in the actual product or just new packaging? The old one is on the left and the new one is on the right. I can't find the old style bottle at any Walmart...

What would be a good transmission temperature gauge? I've been looking at these three but don't know how good of quality they are the only difference I see between them extra color options which I don't really care about and one of the Elites go to 300 degrees. Elite 300 degree...

Hello I've got an 06 Pathfinder SE and the transmission fluid is looking yellowish color. I've heard that means its time to change it but it shifts fine through gears. I want to try to replace as much of the fluid as possible. What is the best way to drain it and fill it back up to be most...

I have a 06 Nissan Pathfinder SE and need to replace the tires soon. They are 265/70/R16 and I don't have much money to spend. What's the best choice for budget, ride, and extra fuel mileage?
