| Okay, I got my car back yesterday. I had taken it in and they intially replaced the right front strut, which didn't take care of the creaking noise. The service director rode with me and said it was the upper control arm bushing that was the culprit. So...I returned the car to them and they replaced the entire upper control arm...problem solved. | |
Okay, I have a question. When you pull up to a gas station and you see the sticker on the pump that says "Gas may contain up to 10% ethanol." Would that be true for all grades of gas they sell? I ask this question because gas with ethanol is killing my fuel economy. Before the big ethanol push, I was seeing 17-18 mpg in the city, now...it's more like 13-14 mpg.

Replying to: allmet33 (Apr 10, 2009 6:48 am) The 10% is the max Ethanol in the worst case scenario, the actual blend would differ from refiner to refiner, day it was blended & price of Ethanol that day. Suffice to say that if you are close to Corn country, your Ethanol concentration would be close to the max 10%. If you are close to the refineries & gulf, your blend tends to have lower Ethanol. Unfortunately there's no way of telling. Ethanol mandate is an immoral & harmful scam pulled on America by these corn states. To appease to the Corn mafia, our Engines are being harmed & environment harmed. |

It is claimed that ethanol is supposed to make the fuel burn off more completely, thus creating less harmful emission from the tail pipe. Like you, I believe it is a huge scam. I'm led to believe with the decline of my fuel economy, that the stations here in the DC metro area are putting the full 10% in their fuels and it reeks!!!

Replying to: allmet33 (Apr 10, 2009 10:56 am) Ethanol is not clean. The energy taken to create Ethanol would offset many times the (supposedly) clean burning of Ethanol. If you look at some of Hyundai's service bulletins, there's one which says that if the Ethanol blend is more than 10%, the warranty is void. (Search in hmaservice.com in the Fuel section) And now the mafia wants to mandate 15-20%!! Are Americans really that stupid that they can't see a scam when they see one?? (Sorry, I'm very angry about Ethanol as I consider it to be immoral)
