No money to pay for an at fault fender bender?
I'm a broke 17-year-old high school student. I recently was involved in a fender bender where I was at fault. The guy I hit was driving a brand new 2017 Honda Accord. I hit his bumper, leaving small dents but disordered the position of his bumper As well. He's in process of getting an estimate from a body shop I directed to. The car I was driving in, under my dads name was uninsured but we live in NH where it's not illegal to have an uninsured vehicle. I'm currently unemployed but plan on getting a job and have about $200 in my savings. I don't want my dad to worry about paying for me so I will work to pay off. Without having enough money to pay out of pocket up from, what should I do about payments? Is it possible to ask and pay monthly? Suggestions?

What car looks cool (semi-sporty, sleek) but not too expensive? This will be my first car
I like the Honda Civic Is, but that only comes in manual transmission, and it is a little too sporty looking. Are there any sedans (I'm hesitant for a coupe, but if you know of one, please list it:) Added (1). *Honda Civic Si, not "Is". Also I think the rear of the SI is too sporty, not the body Read more: What car looks cool (semi-sporty, sleek) but not too expensive? This will be my first car

I have a f4i 02. Something is draining my battery, I've been through 4 batteries in 2 weeks; I even replaced the stator and recitifier but my battery is only running 8.6 volts while at 3krpm.

2009 Honda Crv New Ac Compressor clutch not engaging
Here is my story. I have been having problems with my AC all summer. I was told I needed a new compressor and condenser. I purchased a spectro (made in China) compressor and condenser. The compressor was engaging on and off continuously and the car was vibrating so I had to return it after two months. I then bought a used Honda compressor and the clutch was skipping while spinning. Finally I surrendered and bought a NEW Honda compressor. The compressor does not come with coil and clutch assembly so I had to purchase them separately. I put them together as shown in the diagram, filled the compressor with 80ML of PAG 46 oil and installed the coil and clutch as shown. Today, I went to my mechanic to put Freon in the system, but the clutch was not engaging. It was not spinning at all. There's power going into the compressor and the compressor is working, just not the clutch. Could I have installed the clutch assembly incorrectly? Is there a certain procedure that I had to follow? Am I ...

Honda Ruckus, 49 cc, in florida, do I need a motorcycle license?
Ok so, I'm 15, and I have a Honda ruckus. I've never been a fan of scooters, and I'm still not, but I drive the ruckus to ease my mothers mind, before I eventually get a motorcycle. Do I need to take a course and get a motorcycle license to drive a 49 cc scooter? I understand that there are differences between a 50CC bike and a 49CC when it comes to the laws.

How Cadillacs, Mercedes, BMWs cost more than Toyotas and Hondas
what exactly are you getting for that extra money? I mean, you can get a Toyota that has leather seats, shaded windows, climate controls, and it would still cost less than a Cadillac XTS.

Starting problems Honda c100?
Hi I have recently restored a Honda c100 and now can't start it. The best I can get is a slow tick over for about 20seconds if I have the choke and throttle fully open. This to me says to much fuel. I have changed the fuel hoses and the new ones had a slightly bigger bore diameter. These go from the tank to the tap on the carb. Would this be causing my problems or does the tap restrict the flow anyway. Read more: Starting problems Honda c100?

1997 Civic DX D16Y7 swap to B18B1?
So I have a 1997 Civic DX with the stock D16Y7 engine still in it. Only reason I'm thinking about doing the swap is because my transmission is almost out engine is misfiring and my catalytic converter is bad so fixing all those problems one by one will probably run me as much as this swap. So I read that a b18b1 (non vtec) is a direct fit on my Honda. But I honestly want to know what I should get in regards of cables harnesses motor/trans mounts etc. I just wanna know as much as possible regarding this swap thank you. And last will a 2001 Integra gs b18b1 fit my 1997 Civic DX thank you. Read more: 1997 Civic DX D16Y7 swap to B18B1?
Would you say that epa est. 35mpg hwy/25 city good gas mileage in today's standards?
I currently am driving a 2002 Honda Civic LX which I love, but might end up getting a newer car. Right now I'm averaging 26mpg with my Civic because I'm usually driving around town, and the only time I'm really on the highway is on my 60 mi round trip to school. The car I plan on getting is a 2014-2017 Jetta. I test drove the '17 Passat on a 1,000 mi road trip to Northern California and loved it and averaged 30 mpg the whole trip. I know that both the Jetta SEL and the Passat SEL share the same 1.8T engine. I liked the peppiness of the engine and the overall smoothness of the ride. The 1.4T engine gets even better gas mileage, but I feel as though the power might lack. Is 35hwy/25city good for the 1.8T. The thing is that I liked the mileage but I don't know if I can achieve the same mileage of the 1.4T with the 1.8T. On a side-note I haven't test drove a 1.4T so maybe I might feel as though the power is adequate for today's standards. And I'm a lead ...
Lost my only car key. Locksmith cost?
Hey, just a wiped out college student that got tired after midterms and doesn't know where his keys went. I checked my dorm and can't find anything. It was my ONLY key to my 2006 Honda Accord. The good news is that I've saved money for emergencies like this. I have around $400. The bad news is that my car is locked, and I Really don't want to tow it. I lost my keys before and a locksmith came and 'cut' a new key to fit precisely. Locksmiths, is $400 a decent price to have a locksmith come to your house, open your locked car, and make a new key?

Want to buy a used SUV on Craigslist, anything I should be mindful of?
I'm looking to buy a 2015/2016 Toyota RAV4 or Honda CRV from a random stranger on Craigslist. I'm not good with cars, so is there anything specific I should check and make sure nothing is wrong with the vehicle? Or would a 2015/2016 still be considered so new that there should be no major concerns? Thank you. Read more: Want to buy a used SUV on Craigslist, anything I should be mindful of?
I'm in the process of trading in my Mustang. I need some honest feedback on my two choices
I'm deciding between a 2013 White Nissan Altima 3.5 SL with 25k miles at about $16k out the door. My other and first choice is a 2013 Black Honda Accord EX-L V6 Coupe with about 45k on it for about $18-19k out the door. Insurance is but a $15 a month difference between the two vehicles for me so what's I'm really trying to find out is if the Honda is worth the extra money I'd spend on it for car note and insurance. Monthly payment difference is $40ish. Oh and the caveat: I either have to pay about $500 to get the Honda shipped to where I live or drive about 14 hours to go purchase it where it's located. Help please. I plan on driving whichever vehicle into the dust so it's a pretty important choice for me. Read more: I'm in the process of trading in my Mustang.

How do I change a tire?
Ok so me and my girlfriend were pulled over for failure to use turn signal, the cop approaches our vehicle and immediately opens my door and tells me to step out of the vehicle and I kiss my girlfriend goodbye because at this point I know they are shipping me off to jail due to my felony warrants. The officer pats me down with brute force, I cry knowing that I will be separated from my belived. Although i believe I will learn a lesson from this, I'm currently in the back of the patrol car writing this from san antonio texas. The county jail here is rough but i'm 6'0 and weigh 180 lbs I can handle myself. But with all this being said my question is, HOW THE HELL DO YOU CHANGE THE OIL IN A LAWN MOWER? I have had the honda 150cc lawn mower for about 8 months and its due for an oil change where do I start? I lost the owners manual so don't even start with that. Plus my girlfriend is super worried like what if by the time I get out of jail the grass is 10 ft long oh no then ...
Nissan Juke or V6 Dodge Challenger? Yes it's a weird choice
So I'm between two cars, and looking to find one that fits my lifestyle and will make me happier and more comfortable in the day-to-day. What to know about me. 23 y/o (almost 24) male in final years of college, working as a server at a restaurant chain to make ends meet. 6'7" tall 220 pounds (so pretty thin). Married to a wonderful lady who I won't have kids with for at least 5-10 years. Going to be going on a couple road trips in the next few months/years. Accidentally wrecked my 2011 Honda CRZ hybrid 6 months ago and looking to move on. Stylistically I appreciate both cars, the juke and challenger, I like unusual cars. Both are roughly $10k which is what I intend to spend in cash, money isn't the issue it's just about finding which is the better car. I'm not looking for other options. It's just between the two. Wife wants me to get the Juke, I also kind of really want the juke. But the challenger is within my range and is a nicer car, more comfo...

99 Honda Civic issue?
My neighbor has a 99 Honda Civic with 250k he parked it this time last year when he got his new car. He told me he would sell it to me for $50 since it's older and needs a tie rod. Well today we went to start it and when it starts it squeals very loud by where the serpentine belt is. And he said if you don't keep giving it gas it dies. I kind of sounds like one of the pullys are stuck. He said it ran and drives great when you parked it. Any ideas? Thank you! Read more: 99 Honda Civic issue?
How bad do you think the damage to my car is? Knowledgeable people only please
I got in a car accident today and my 2009 Honda Element EX (which I love more than most of my immediate family) took some damage. Neither car was moving faster than 10 mph. The road was wet, and i skidded through a stop sign. The other car did not have a stop sign, breaked, and hit me right on the driver side front wheel. I was able to get my car over to the shoulder, but it made a terrible noise. There was no obvious damage to my car, but a closer look revealed that the driver side front wheel was sitting at an angle. I looked closer and saw that the wheel was pretty much leaning against the breaks. Attached are some picture. The car was moved off the street and will arrive at a body shop on monday. https://imgur.com/PnU4smC https://imgur.com/JHGD3uX https://imgur.com/6iZsQrv Read more: How bad do you think the damage to my car is?

Help me with my car's tire gauge?
OK, so I drive a Honda, and I'm using my tire gauge to measure the pressure of my tires. PSI, I think. Two of them measure about 44PSI, but the other two measure about 20PSI. I have tried it many times, and two measure 44PSI but the different two still gauge 20PSI. So, I brought my car to my mechanic. My mechanic told me, "We tested them, and they all have sufficient PSI." But now, my tire gauge still says 20PSI. I brought it to my mechanic again, and he says they're all fine. What should I do?

Overheating Concerns?
I have an 1996 Honda CBR600F3. After riding for a while and sitting Idled in traffic the temperature gauge rises to slowly to the mid hot point.

But while sitting idled the bike seems to start overheating and the fans kicks on every time. Any suggestions as to why it seems to start overheating while sitting Idled. Thanks in advance.

Car won't go into any gear when engine is on?
I have an 04 Honda accord 5 speed with 75K miles. Recently was giving me some shifting issues. It started giving me problems going into gears and would take a couple tries. Then one day it would not go into any gear at all, would take maybe 5 minutes to shift into a gear and would probably hear a slight grind. So this shop tell me its my "hydrolics" and that they replaced them and the cars working. I know the "hydrolics" consists of master and slave cylinder but i'm not sure what else. So about 2 weeks after i'm driving then i push the clutch down just to hear a bang and see the peddle on the floor. So i take it to another shop and i get the clutch replaced with an exedy oem kit and my short shifter installed, also the master cylinder the previous shop put it had already went bad so I replaced that as well. So the work is done and i'm driving the car, i put about 700 miles on the new clutch and everything else. Then i go to my car this morning and it won...
