Lexus GX 2010+ :: 2016 Base Versus Premium
We want to buy a Premium, but the interior color we want is only available on the Base. We want black on black available on the Base. The only black in the Premium includes the fake wood trimming. If we go with a Base we want to know what we are giving up.
I'm finding it quite difficult to finding a listing of the differences on a feature-by-feature basis between the Base and Premium models. There are general marketing terms but I'm not convinced it represents the complete delta.

I have a 2010 f150 super crew, last night when leaving my baseball game I was shocked to find my running lights and my regular beam lights don't work. My high beams work fine but nothing else. I'm pretty sure the lights are an after market light, but I'm not positive since I purchased it used. I looked in manual to check for a fuse issue but I don't see anything regarding the headlights.

This noise appeared for an hour, haunted us with regular appearances, then disappeared as soon as I drove the car to my trusted mechanic. I never heard the sound over the 6 years we've owned the vehicle and it hasn't come back. This sound was regular and repeated while driving, breaking, stopped in gear and even parked and idling. No vibrations or abnormal operation of the vehicle. Sounded like it was coming from somewhere right in front of the driver. Mechanic was stumped-something in the ABS system. Noise coming from under hood right in front of driver-2.wav.

I just discovered that my wife had driven our 2013 LX with the diffs locked on regular pavement. She had mentioned the vehicle had felt hard to turn and after checking sure enough the diff lock was engaged. Not sure if she accidentally pushed it or a possibly a valet did it from the night before. Either way she drove with the diff lock engaged for probably close to a full day. It makes me cringe when I think about it.
When I got home last night I wasn't able to unlock the diff, light kept blinking. This morning we tried again and after moving the car forward and back a few times, finally was able to disengage it.

View 2 RepliesFord Super Duty (1999-2016) :: Starters Burning Up On Regular Basis
Friend brought me his 2001 F250 SD 7.3 to see if I can figure out what is wrong with it. He has had it to several shops to no avail. It started with lights coming on and off periodically and ended with starters burning up on a regular basis. 3 or 4 by now. It will roll over on it's own and do all kinds of crazy stuff. Shops have pretty much stuck with swapping starters and solenoids but I don't think that is it. I have pulled the main fuse block under the hood and it is clean, next the one under the dash.
I can't see moisture in the GEM but there was moisture on the outside of the box. The GEM looks OK but that doesn't really mean anything. I put a Ford scanner on it (AutoEnguity type) and it scanned and brought uo several GEM failures but not sure if that is from hooking and unhooking stuff. I have had to keep bat cables unhooked as I am afraid it will burn up when no one around. When I scanned I had to hook up batteries and when I turned on the ignition it went crazy with flashing lights and relays clicking from behind the dash. I cleared the codes and it stopped. GEM? Can GEM's be tested? I know they can be re programmed so why not tested?

Where is the Weather map supposed to be?
Just picked up a 2016 Fsport and have been going through all the various menus and I see nothing about weather...
The regular nav screen shows traffic perfectly and has since day one, but no weather or radar map, or even a hint of it, anywhere in any of the menus... I have lot of HD radio stations available and the "HD" with the three cars next to it is lit up just fine on the nav map.

View 14 RepliesSubaru - Outback :: Premium Octane - Engine Jerks Upon Pressing The Gas
I just recently brought my 2006 subaru outback (v6) to the shop. The men, whom I've know and trust, told me there's too much carbon in the engine - it's got 80k on it - and that I should use Super the next two times I fill the tank. I went to an Irving station and put in Premium Octane. I only put in 3 gallons, and now the gas jerks upon pressing the gas. The check engine light came on, the SPORTS light is blinking fast and the CRUISE light is blinking as well. It sounds bad and when I put it in/out of park, I hear a little bit of grinding. Is this common for putting in new higher quality gas? Am I destroying something?? Should I not have put in premium?
