Start going in earlier, FA20 turbo twin. Although, that low at 6,000 may indicate a bigger problem with the engine. The main problem with our engines is fuel dilution of the oil due to the direct injection implementation. People doing used oil analysis have seen very high numbers.

How do I contact the staff here with story tips? I have a good one out of Trump Country.

Sounds like they ironed out the V6 cylinder deactivation problem where a piston goes kaboom.

Especially south of Maryland.

Both!

Yeah, just wondering. I’ve never had the courage to Seafoam through the vacuum line, even though that’s proper use. I use a can of it more like an injector cleaner in the tank. It would clear up pinging (on the recommended 87 octane) in a 4.6L 24v engine for a few thousand miles.

Seafoam in the vacuum line or in the gas tank?

I thought the FA in the BRZ/86 was direct and port injection, while the WRX was solely direct injection.

I’ve driven both the BRZ and new WRX. I get what some owners of the BRZ say about their car. If they’re track rats or live in Colorado/WV/north Georgia, I’m sure their car is plenty fun. But...I think the sales figures over the years now have shown that a turbo would help Subaru/Toyota make more money.

Question from a former WV resident with deep roots there: does the state seem like a lost cause to you? I see nothing but extreme pessimism when I read about the budget woes and political battle concerning the proposed budget. Coupled with the opoid epidemic, out-migration, and lack of new industry (that is needed…

Whoa whoa. Then you’d take away the reason the VW GTI wins every magazine comparison test ever. Handling isn’t as crisp? Don’t fancy visiting the dealer 5 times in the first 3 months of ownership? Well, the dash is soft touch!

I look forward to seeing all the comments about how far Hyundai has come, and how they should totally be considered when car shopping because price and wow, what you get for $5,000 less!!!. Random engine stalling????

I don’t believe you’ll find a capable AWD system in this Buick, at least not compared to Subaru. Ground clearance won’t even touch the Outback either.

Fuck yes!

In one of the stills of the tire sidewall, the “P315" width has been replaced with “P815" with an obvious arrow pointing to the number. Seems like a more realistic HP number.

Have they fixed the Variable Cylinder Management™ (VCM™) yet? Ours needed a piston repair under 60k miles. Other models with the same cylinder deactivation like the Pilot have similar issues.

If that comes to pass I would hope the non-profits could meet the same standard of care. I’d certainly do what I could, monetarily, to make sure they were able.

I’m talking about manatees bruh.......see my initial post you responded to. Also, I’m getting this from the organizations that research & catalog manatee populations for conservation purposes. They post monthly, if not weekly, about rescues that (sadly) need to take place.
