| Nu Finish opinions | 15Relevance | 5 years ago | 7.3PunchInA3.4 | Submit Your Question HERE | |
| I honestly have never owned a car nice enough for a polish/wax, but I decided my brand new pear white 2020 Ford Fusion might fit this bill. Back when I got my 2015 Focus tuxedo black automatic (Big tranny issues and a huge mistake overall), I used a friend's NuFinish on it and remember it turning out nicely. I was wondering on all of you guy's opinions on it. I have a few questions... 1. Is it safe 2. How does it line up against other products of its type (I.E. pros and cons of polishes vs waxes) 3. What are your personal opinions on it, and what would you recommend (if not Nu-Finish) to keep the coat looking nice. Thanks for any insight. | |||||

| I have an update. The Honda's motor was no good. It had Oil dilution. there was gas in the oil. What a shame. Ended up with a 2014 Mazda CX-5. 100k miles and could not find anything wrong with it. Any opinions on the Mazda CX-5? I could use some opinions. | |||||

| @rockstarnick See these are all different opinions. And that is great to have on a forum like this. What's the point of having a forum that only praises car brands like Toyota and Honda because of Scotty's hype and bashes on others like BMW and Mercedes? It's great to share our opinions. | |||||

| @mod_man Ford quality is crap. Well said. People here are usually going off Scotty's opinions and not their own. For example, just because Scotty says BMW is a money pit or a Dodge is a rolling pile of junk doesn't always hold true and varies from person to person. I try to stay unbiased and strictly use my experience, not other people's opinions. | |||||

| Seems Ford still can't get their backup cameras right. Now, something in the accessory protocol interface module can overheat, leading to a blank backup screen. The recall affects the 2021-26 Ford Bronco and 2021-26 Ford Edge. I don't know why people need backup cameras. I was taught to look in all of my mirrors before backing up. My Mustang has a backup camera and I don't use it. The backup camera screen even says check surroundings before backing up. | |||||
| 2008 Lexus es350 - Opinions needed.. | 15Relevance | 4 years ago | 21xse | Submit Your Question HERE | |
| Hi, I bought my 2008 ES350 in March of 2021 with 59,990 miles from my Toyota dealer. Currently, I have 64,100 miles as I do not drive much. I live in a northern state, there is no rust at all on the car. Once a month I run the vehicle through a touchless car wash in the winter, so that helps too. (The water pressure is not insane, so please don't worry about that... Lol) It has been serviced at the Lexus dealer by older people. Back in March, the Toyota dealer had replaced the two front axles and the wiper blades. They had informed me before I bought it that there is a steering wheel shake at 70ish MPH, which is noticeable and has gotten progressively worse. I need opinions on whether or not to fix the current issues or sell the vehicle and get something newer/new. The current issues are; Flashing tpms light, loud either squeaking/grinding noise on startup, tires could use replacing, braking performance is terrible, steering wheel shake from 1 or 2 wheels (It goes away once I get the tires rotated.)... In April the TPMS light came on, I had gone to the dealer for an oil change as they never changed it before I bought it which was strange, the light magically had turned off and they could not figure it out. The light turned on about a week after that. I had replaced my brakes at the Toyota dealer in December of 2021, they used Lexus parts. Now in January, the braking performance has gone back to how it used to be, and periodically they grind while braking. Toyota won't warranty them either... The steering wheel shake is most likely a bent rim, as the first owner hit a pothole at 3,000 miles in 08 and reported a steering wheel shake/pulls to the right. My tires are dated back in 2016, so they aren't unbalanced. If I were to get a new(er) vehicle, it would be either a current-gen Corolla, Mazda 3 hatch (as I do not want CD), current-gen accord 1.5 or 2.0t, 21'cx-30, 20' Rav4, or a 2021 Camry. I am weary of Honda with reliability, but Honda has been making turbo engines for years so they know what they're doing. Any opinions would help me out big time, all the repairs come to a total of at least 1200, possibly even more... The vehicle (Private party) is worth 13-15K, trade-in 11-12.5K (With everything I have done to the vehicle, ceramic coating, leather/plastic/vinyl treatments, etc.) Thank you! | |||||
| Answer to: 2014 Mazda CX-5 opinions | 15Relevance | 5 years ago | Kerem | Submit Your Question HERE | |
| 2014 is a good year for Mazda. In 2015, they had a partnership with Toyota, and in the 2014-2017 years they had their own powertrain and proven to be reliable, and didn't have turbos or cylinder deativation. Not as good as lets say a Toyota, but still a good crossover. The 2.5 engine is also good because it isn't as sluggish as the 2.0. Here is what Scotty thinks: (BTW they are two different videos even though he used the same thumbnail) Also about the video Day Walker put above, its outdated. Scotty's opinions have changed rapidly in the last year or so as the newer Mazdas are improving. Scotty is refering to the Mazdas of the time of Ford 8 10 15 years ago, as that was what he was working on at the time. Now, you can find his opinions in the above videos, and I see him commonly refer to Mazdas as "good cars" and "excellent choices" etc. Here is what Scotty said in 2019: "Lately my customers with Mazdas they've been reasonably happy with their vehicles and they are pretty dependable" He ranked it 3rd in the best car brands after Toyota Honda (if you don't count Ford as he wasn't refering to their cars) | |||||

| Well Ford is at it again.. Almost half a million Ford/Lincoln SUVs are being recalled due to a rear brake hose that is faulty, causing the brake system to lose fluid, and increase stopping distance: thus increasing crash risks. Ford claims they don't have a fix, and won't have one until April of next year. Why can't Ford figure out how to fix a leaky brake system? Is there one person with brain cells in that company? | |||||
| AWD Disabled Gear Wrench Icon | 14Relevance | 8 months ago | Speedguy26 | Submit Your Question HERE | |
| I have a 2013 AWD Ford Edge SEL with 191xxx miles. I was using it to jump start my 2017 Peterbilt 579(which this time was unsuccessful) for maybe about an hour or so. The batteries were drained so I left it hooked up to try and recharge them enough to crank the truck over. Well, as I stated earlier that didn't work. When I was leaving in my Edge the *AWD disabled* message popped up and the car started idling funny. I stopped and turned the vehicle off and let it sit there for a couple minuets. Then it drove fine. I drove it to a gas station for fuel w ... | |||||

| Well, if there's nothing robbing odds are the rotor is making the noise as they age. They get little bitty grooves on the Edge where the pad doesn't touch and then when you're corner hard they rub against that very little ridge that's on the Edge | |||||

| Drivetrain-wise, a naturally aspirated Toyota Camry would probably be the most reliable. If Honda still made naturally aspirated gas driven Accord's 4 cylinder Accord's with the K-Series engine, the Edge would go to them. Alas, it seems Honda has gone turbo and/or hybrid. Comfort-wise, IMHO, the Accord usually has better styling and driving dynamics. Just on paper and pictures, the 2025 Camry looks to be a carryover from the previous generation, just with minor styling revisions on the exterior, and a more modern interior. Overall, the Camry probably has ... | |||||
