I don't get the rear wiper myself? But folks have been doing that forever? The bus bar and having a look could not hurt but yeah not the best...
So was that an OEM Cat or an aftermarket cat that failed? Aftermarket cat's can pass the smog test but they can't pass the "Visual Inspection," in...
WOW, well first that is an incredible level of integrity on Greentec's part, to say the least! Not only did they not sell you a part you did not...
The car won't throw a CEL, because the Air Box, is not a part of the required smog equipment. On some car's back in the day anyway, the Air...
That FWD's cars with Beam Axles, don't need a rear sway bar? Would come as quite a surprise to a whole bunch of OEM's? And rest assured if there...
