Ideally wheels can be fixed, but not all. Usually welding and grinding costs $150 while wheel straightening cost $125. Welded wheels must undergo a follow up Eddy test. The Eddy test detects cracks and weak areas to further improved quality. Generally aluminum alloy wheels are expensive but reparable. Steel wheels can suffer from hydrogen brittleness and can cause cracks. To remove scratches scraping up used tire rims is another solution to repair it.

Every junk yard is a little different with regard to pricing. And the amount you can expect to save will vary based on the type of item you're looking for. For example, car seats may carry higher savings than fuel pumps. As a general rule, you should expect to pay 40% to 50% less than you would for a comparable new unit. A brand new "straight-from-the-box" alternator might cost $200. At a junkyard, you should expect to pay $100 to $120 for the same brand and model.

The car of the week page offers a range of used cars that have been inspected and taken care of properly. The dealer will often run an HPI Check which will check the cars history, documentation and insurance history. The professionals also verify the number plate history of the vehicle. They ensure that the vehicles have not been written off after an accident. You can therefore get an assurance that the cars listed in the page are in good condition.

Determine Your Need: Every spare part is made for a specific make and model of a BMW, Mercedes, Toyota, etc. It may not be compatible with another make or model. Therefore, wherever you will be buying your auto parts, be specific with your order. Let the dealer know that you need x part for y vehicle of make a and model m.

Most of the nearly new cars that you want to look for are cars that have been leased. These are cars or trucks that people have leased for just one or two years and then traded in for the lease of yet another new car. These cars can have some high mileage on them, but some of them are in amazing shape with low miles, and sell for a great price. Your job is to check out the mileage and the condition of the nearly new cars that you find in this manner to be sure they are in the shape that you desire. Most people don't know to buy leased cars after one lease is up for a great price, but now you do.

Car movies can be categorized by the role that the car plays in the film. There are movies that, while not actually about cars, contain vivid scenes where cars are essential to the story. In "Back to the Future" (1985) a 1981 DeLorean is the time-travel machine. What would Batman ("Batman Begins" 2005) be without the Batmobile, or "Ferris Bueller's Day Off" (1986) without the Ferrari belonging to Cameron's father? "Heart Like a Wheel" (1983), about racing car driver Shirley Muldowney, adds romance to the mix. In a more recent movie, "Drive" starring Ryan Gosling, the main character is a driver-he drives stunt cars in movies and getaway cars in robberies.

Speaking of early indications, many of you have most likely seen the early release teaser clip called "Secrets" of the Cars 2 video game that has been floating around the web. Kind of makes you want more right? Well, sadly to say that is all we will have until the release date.
