It's called a lower engine splash guard, or just engine splash guard. It's especially important to have one if your car is low to the ground, but most if not all of the engine components such as the...

Most cars have it nowadays it keeps your engine bay free of debris and whatnot. They're a pain in the *** when it comes to oil changes, especially the ones on Infinitis and Mazdas. I don't think...

My first guess would have been dust in the vents seeing as you are from Michigan and it is very cold but... what njmaxseltd is saying makes sense too.

W is the second to highest speed rating and it's usually used on exotics. 270 km/h max with the Ws, 300 km/h max with the Ys. So yeah, you're good.

I'm inclined to put the larger tires in the back but this is coming from a former RWD owner. I'm not sure about FWD cars. As an exampe the Lexus IS-F has P225/40R19 in the front and P255/35R19 in the...

Why would you even ask for advice for this anyways? The answer is pretty obvious. I guess it's because I live in Canada and a full inch of ice on your car isn't uncommon but sheesh.

Put in some 89 or preferably 91 if your gas stations offer it. We get 87, 89, 91 and 94 here in Canada at the Shell. I put 91 in mine; I think 94 is a bit over the top, but you can cycle between one...

Well, considering you could get a BMW 135i (a mini M3) for maybe a grand or two more, yes, the price point is high.

You'll still need to put some elbowgrease into it even with the defroster on full blast. You can't expect to sit in your car for 20 minutes and have the ice completely melted. Put the defroster on...

Man I can barely do 400km on a tank of gas, let alone 400 miles. I don't know where you got those numbers from but 285 miles on a tank of gas isn't far-fetched. I don't think your sensor is off; you...

I usually get most of the water off with a microfiber chamois, then dry it off with with a microfiber cloth and some QuickWax from Meguiar's every now and then. Works like a charm.
