Try used fabric softer dryer sheets to remove love bugs from front of car,just wet them and rub away the bugs.

The best product I've found to remove water spots and make your black car/suv shine is Eagle One Wet..Wipe and Shine...this product is awesome to remove spots on paint and also your exterior windows.

I spray WD-40 on my wheels before I go to the car wash,then when you get to the car wash, all you have to do is pressure wash the brake dust off...works great.

I used a can of compressed air that you would use to clean your computer to remove gum from my seat,you just hold the can upside down and frosty air will come from it to freeze the gum till it was removed.

Share more and more information related to it.

* The engine should idle smoothly(without surging or sputtering)
* Look for sings of repainting. Check whether all body parts in same color.
* Inspect the chassis of the car. The bodyline will give you an indication whether the car has met an accident or not.

* Check the wheel alignment of cars. Uneven wear and tear of tyres-balding on the sides or in the middle-indicate poor alignment.
* Check the condition of battery.
* Check whether all the headlights and indicators are working properly.
* Check air conditioning system.]]>

Speed over 50kmph can save gas.
-Get rid of unnecessary weight. Higher weight can cause gas.
-Try to avoid traffic. High traffic means higher gas consumption.
-Change your air filter.
A dirty air filter will rob the engine of power and efficiency.
-Avoid excessive idling.
If you idle your car for more than a minute, it will save gas to turn off the engine. Also, new cars do not need to be "warmed up" on a cold winter day - a couple of seconds should do the trick.]]> -Drive at the speed limit.
