Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I think it is made (at least the deck anyway) by AC Delco. I replaced my entire sound system, though, so I can't look on...
What type of speakers did you replace the factory ones with? Did you have any problem installing them? Crutchfield gave me the runaround and said that the ...
Hi, I am not an installer, so I had my local stereo guys do it. I went with JL Audio VR speakers; they also added JL Audio tweeters in place of the factory...

Hey everyone, I was a member of this group way, way back, in January 2002, when the Matrix was just about to be released. I didn't post much back then, as I...

Well my BUG had some compression left in 260k miles on a rebuilt engine although I hardly used it since I was coasting a lot. The 'trix' is diferent and the...
I changed to synthetic at less than 100 miles. Mobil 1 is factory fill on the Vette, Viper and a few other cars. The only time I would not change to...
Just FYI, Volkswagens use a break-in oil as well. Volkswagens break in a lot more ways than that, as I found out. ;( Are we sure Toyota doesn't use a break-in...
