99.9% if the time the blinker is blinking fast because either front or rear bulb has low resistance. Usually a filament burnts out and reconnects reducing resistance and you get the fast blinks. Do not change the flasher relay - change one or both bulbs.

I bought a 2004 Highlander for my wife in 2004. It has the 2.4 motor. Yeah it burns oil ( about 1qt every 1500 miles) but still runs great! My wife still likes it so we'll keep as long as it runs.

You should remind people to hose off the underside after driving through salted streets

My friend got that c40 and it’s very nice inside led door panels, spacey . He has had 3 tire issues for some reason which aren’t in warranty and spent $3k on tires in 6 mos

Hey Scotty, I have a question. I did my oil change on my 2015 Lexus GS 350 it has 135,000 miles but this time since I did it in the open, I noticed some particles on the old oil on the catch pan. I never paid attention. I don’t know if this is the first time or if it’s been there long. The car is not making any weird noises no knock I wonder what can I do or is it normal or what can I do to extend the life of my engine. Also, I always do the oil change every 4000 miles using full synthetic zero20 with an OEM Lexus cartridge filter.

I have a 2011 Honda CRV. Other than the oil consumption this has been an amazing vehicle. Recently my driver side door lock locked up on me and now my ignition switch is going there too. Dealership wanted $2,230 to replace them. Do you know of a good source for parts and is this something I can accomplish without a fancy computer to reset the locks. I haven’t worked on a car since before all this computer crap, back in the 80’s and very early 90’s. I’m an ex mechanic, retired after breaking my neck.

How is a niche car that nobody can afford kill Tesla or Toyota?

Love you Scotty, and will continue to watch. But it's not about an extra 39 bucks for you. It's if the 10's of millions of people got them, and also remember it's per fan!, that it will reduce everything. Where does the fan get power? If you have say an average of 3 fans per house, and you get 1 billion people to all convert.. think about the impact. But, as an individual I get the gripe.

@alistairlewis2461

Still an illogical argument. Ignores the carbon involved in fan manufacture. Ignores the extra carbon I produce to earn the dollars to purchase the fan. Ignores the extra dollars required for installation and the carbon burned to create those dollars. Seems stupid. I take yr argument about volume. But the volumes of carbon created must outweigh any perceived advantage

Honestly anybody who knows anything knows that a ceiling fan will help to move the air around and cut down on air conditioning cost.

You get a one year warranty and you’re lucky if it makes it. I bought a new a/c. To help make the seer rating, they put a rectifier in the blower motor. Which contains relays and capacitor. well the first one lasted 3 years, replaced the whole motor $300 ,that one lasted 2 years, bought just the rectifier $130 that was a year ago.🙏 That’s 3 electric bills. The previous air handler was 25 years old I use it now as a stand alone heater and it’s the original ge motor and capacitor. I doubt in the 30 years it used $430 dollars worth of electricity with free labor and the inconvenience.

The electric Volvo seats have to be comfortable, because you will be sleeping in it for 8 hours while you charge.

Yes, the regular guy will not be able to afford a EV Car because it is way to expensive and I also heard it is really expensive to fix. The power stations is also a problems because there are not many and it need to charge a long time to reach Full charge. So if you are in a rush and need a Full battery , you will need to wait a few hours. This is made for rich people, not people that lives on a strict budjet or average paid guy. And extreme weather will affect the performance negatively on this type of car (Extreme cold weather and Hot weather also). Some EV car here even caught fire at Wall Mart. The EV Battery is unreliable and is hazardous because it can catch fire (The elements inside are unsafe) but I heard the Chinese were building a Superior and safer battery (But I did not investigate further). So the pricing is too much and for me it's unsafe. And some EV Car I see here can hardly fit one person and seems very small to me (It is certainly not a whole family vehicle? 🤔👎👎👁

Volvos are very expensive luxury thing$$$$. Of course it has to be better than cheaper ones.. Duhh !
