Glad to help you with your problem, but remember that we don't get to touch, see, or smell any of the car problems. We rely on the information you give us to make it possible for us to offer our best recommendation.

1. Please post more than "I need help". Try to tell the forum as much as possible about the issue. Things like my car stopped moving doesn't help people give you ideas on where to look post as much information as you can.

2. Use the drop down menu and select make, model, year, engine size and transmission type. By providing as much information as possilbe to start with helps people who are more knowledgeable in certain vehicles help you out more.

3. If you can, take a picture of your car / problem and upload it with the question. It is not nessesary, but it will help.

4. A donation is always appreciated and will speed things up significantly. All donations are shared by our moderators. It is the only form of compensation they recieve.

5. Give positive feedback to people that help you. You do have 5 points regardless of it saying 0. Only give negative feedback if you think someone is misbehaving or if someone is rude.

6. One last important detail: Check the box that says, " Notify me when a reply is posted". You will get an email message with a link after someone has answered you and that will bring you back to your post.

Remember keep it helpful and friendly we all want help and to have fun doing it!!!
