			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p>This is not a full list, but I think these are the most common signs of transmission failure.  It is a good idea to ask your mechanic to check for leaks and other signs of transmission problems while your car is serviced for oil change.  </p>
<p>One of the most common indicators is leaking fluid.  If you see something leaking from your engine (usually red), it means it's time for a major repair.  Take your car to a mechanic as soon as possible to prevent further damage on your transmission.</p>
<p>Another common indicator is abnormal gear shifts.  If you feel firm or loose gear shift, it usually means a problem with your transmission.</p>
<p>Lastly, if you hear noise from your transmission constantly, or while changing gears, that could be also a sign of transmission failure.  </p>
<p>Transmission repair is a major surgery on your vehicle.  Try to prevent the disaster before it even happens by keeping up with regular maintenance schedule.  Don't forget to change the oil as suggest by the manufacturer of your car. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p>Before you go out and purchase a new transmission for your car, self-check your vehicle for the signs of simple system failures that may have caused the transmission failure in the first place.</p>
<p>If your automatic transmission is not switching gears and stays in low gear, you can check the following things before you take it to a mechanic for a pricey repair.</p>
<p>This may sound so simple, but check the transmission fluid first.  Lack of transmission fluid can cause your transmission to fail completely, but if you can spot it in early stage, just refilling the fluid can fix your transmission problems.  If you are not sure how to do this, refer to your car owner's manual.  If the transmission fluid is present and it has dark colors such as dark brown or black, just take your car to a mechanic.  That usually means you have a major issue with transmission.</p>
<p>If you have a transmission modulator installed on your car, sometimes it can cause your car to stop running.  Usually when a modulator goes out, you will feel firmer shifts than normal.  Loose shifts could be a sign of a modulator failure as well.</p>
<p>In addition check for disconnected or broken cables.</p>
<p>When your car doesn't accelerate or stalls, stop driving it.  Pull your car and call for help.  If you keep on driving while the transmission is having a problem, you can worsen the problem when sometimes it can be fixed easily.  Just keep that in mind.  </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p>One of the most common car problems is dead battery. It is the life of your car. Without it, your car is as good as dead. And yet, the car battery is often neglected when it comes to regular auto maintenance. So how should we take care of the battery?</p>
<p>Here are a few useful guiding tips as to how you can successfully go about taking care of your car battery that will add longevity to the battery and ensure hassle-free start-ups!</p>
<p>Make sure that there is no rusting/corrosion on your battery terminals. This leads to frequent problems in start-ups as a result of loss of electrical contact between the battery and electrical cables. So you need to keep in stock those battery corrosion prevention sprays and glues that prevent rusting of car batteries, the root cause of all battery related problems.</p>
<p>However, if you detect any kind of bluish green or white powdery layers forming anywhere around the battery terminals then you have to take immediate action to prevent further damage. You’ve got to clean away all the formed rust carefully from the battery terminals without damaging the battery or causing short-circuits.</p>
<p>You must keep a wire brush handy for scraping off all corrosion from every nook and corner of your rusted battery.</p>
<p>A useful and proven tip that makes your job easier and cleans the car batteries more thoroughly is you can pour boiling hot water over the corroded parts of the battery prior to cleaning. This actually helps to dislodge chunks of rust deposits facilitating easier cleaning of the car batteries.</p>
<p>To enhance the output of your car batteries as well as add a few more extra years to its average life span you can install greater number of and/or larger sized plates in the battery. It is always advised that you buy those types of car batteries only that is best suited in the condition, read weather conditions (hot/cold climates) in which your vehicle is frequently/continuously exposed.</p>
<p>So to avoid troubles in your car batteries and maximize their efficiency you must always take into consideration the cold cranking amps (CCA) and the reserve capacity (RC) ratings while purchasing new car batteries.</p>
<p>You must also keep in mind that most car batteries are 12-volt lead-acid type batteries that are filled with a highly corrosive lead and acid electrolytes and inflammable gases such as hydrogen are released when the batteries are recharged. So while cleaning and maintaining your car batteries take proper safety measures such as wearing rubber gloves, eye protection gears, etc. to avoid injuries and accidents.</p>
<p>The battery terminals must be provided with insulating caps to prevent accidental contact of your car battery wires with any metal part of your car such as the bonnet. This leads to short-circuit followed by fire/explosion.</p>
<p>Prior to handling your car batteries remove all kinds of metal accessories from your body such as watches with metal straps, metal jewelries like bracelets, bangles, rings, etc. to prevent short-circuit if these items by chance touch the positive terminal of the battery.</p>
<p>Last but not the least you must dispose old worn-out batteries with great care. The toxic components of car batteries can damage the environment. Car batteries with their lead and plastic components can be easily recycled so you can exchange old car batteries with new ones instead of disposing them off carelessly.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p>The rainy season or post-snow melt poses a great danger for drivers. The roads and other driving terrains become exceedingly wet and slippery. So if you are driving a bit unmindfully on a wet road you can expect to land up in a big trouble that might prove to be fatal! Wet roads provide great dangers for both expert as well as amateur drivers. So you must keep in mind some important facts that will guarantee your safety while driving on wet roads.</p>
<p>The problems and difficulties faced by drivers driving on wet roads are technically referred to as hydroplaning.  You must always bear this fact in mind that driving in wet weather conditions is completely different from your driving escapades on any bright sunny day! You have to be on full alert and maneuver your car cautiously on a wet and slippery road.</p>
<p>Roads tend to be wet and very slippery especially after a spell of heavy rain or when accumulated snow in winter starts to melt. The water on the roads are mixed with dirt, grime and leaking Mobil from cars and other vehicles. This turns out to be an ideal condition for hydroplaning.</p>
<p>The thin layer of water between the car tires and the road generates a barrier that in turn diminishes the grip between the tires and the road surface. So the vehicle starts gliding over the water layer on the road surface. </p>
<blockquote><p>The good news is that modern technology in the form of more efficient windshield wipers, better windshield defoggers, and tires with enhanced wet-traction capabilities have made wet driving safer.  The most important factor in safe wet driving is the ability to see and be seen (and this latter point is often forgotten).</p></blockquote>
<p>To avoid your car skidding you have to adopt certain techniques and car maintenance tips that will ensure that you are in perfect control while driving on wet roads. They are as follows:</p>
<p>Never drive at high speeds on a wet road. Driving at a lower velocity provides you with greater stability and adhesive friction.</p>
<p>You must avoid abrupt jerky movements while braking, accelerating or turning around a corner.  Another safety guideline that you must follow while traversing on wet roads is to maintain adequate distance between the cars in front of you. So if by any chance you need to brake suddenly then you can have sufficient distance between your car and the one in front of you before coming to a halt.  Always keep your headlights on so that you are visible to the surrounding cars especially during blinding rain or extremely dark and gloomy weather.</p>
<p>Skidding on wet roads leads to innumerable road accidents each year. In most occasions it has been reported that poor quality tires or poorly maintained tires were responsible in addition to the driver’s carelessness. So you have got to invest in top quality tires that are specifically adapted to both dry as well as wet and slippery conditions. You have to maintain your tires regularly checking on their inflation, whether they have become bald and worn out, the air pressures, etc. so that your tires perform with maximum efficiency on wet roads providing you with greater control and confidence.</p>
<p>Also avoid all sorts of physical and mental distractions while driving on wet roads. You have to stay extremely alert in case you lose control! </p>
<p>However if you start to lose control over the wheels then just stay calm and don’t panic! First lightly apply the brakes steering in the direction of the skid, push down the clutch and let the car slow down on its own.  </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p>Motor oil lubricates your car's engine and keeps it in condition. Therefore choosing the best motor oil is a very important thing for the continued health and performance of your car. Motor oil lubricates every moving part of your engine. It cleans the sludge, soot, ash, acid and moisture in the engines. Quality oil makes your engine run smoothly.</p>
<p>Oils are labeled for all kinds of specific purposes. There are different types for old cars, for new cars and for high-tech engines. Your car manufacturer will guide you about the usage of right oil for your car. You may have heard about energy conserving oil that guarantees better fuel economy. Energy conserving oil has to pass through a lab test against reference oils. But in reality there is no guarantee of a better fuel economy. The guarantee that you get is usually from the leading brand. Let’s take a look at different types of motor oils.</p>
<blockquote><p>Motor oil also carries away heat from moving parts, which is important because materials tend to become softer and less abrasion-resistant at high temperatures. Motor oils with higher viscosity indices thin less at these higher temperatures. Motor oil must be able to flow at cold winter temperatures to lubricate internal moving parts upon starting up the engine. Motor oil may be composed of a lubricant base stock only in the case of non-detergent oil, or a lubricant base stock plus additives to improve the oil's detergency, extreme pressure performance, and ability to inhibit corrosion of engine parts. Engine oil which has been tested and meets the API standards may display the API starburst symbol with the service designation on containers sold to oil users. Many motor oils also have detergent and dispersant additives to help keep the engine clean and minimize oil sludge build-up. The higher numbers of a transmission oil (eg 75W-140) do not mean that it is necessarily higher viscosity than an engine oil. These numbers are often referred to as the weight of a motor oil.</p></blockquote>
<p><strong>Synthetic Oil</strong></p>
<p>This oil has a superior long lasting performance. Synthetic oil is exclusively meant for high tech engines. The flow of the oil remains quite good even at very low temperatures, and the peak lubricity is not compromised even at high temperatures. This oil is pretty expensive.<br />
Synthetic Blend Oil: This oil is a mixture of synthetic oil and organic oil. This type of oil will provide protection to your car at high temperatures, being less volatile than some other kinds. Synthetic Blend oil is not as expensive as full synthetic oil.</p>
<p><strong>Premium Convention Oil</strong></p>
<p>This is standard new car oil available in various viscosities. This oil has specification for either 5W-20 or 5W-30 for lower temperatures and 100W-30 for higher temperature. If you are using this oil you have to change and filter it regularly.</p>
<p>It is very important to choose the right oil for your car. Oil grades keep changing day by day. You must make sure that you are using the correct oil for the protection of your car’s engine. To extend the life of the engine of your car, you must change oil after every 2500 or 3000 miles. The oil gets thinner and its viscosity breaks down. If the viscosity of the oil is reduced below a certain level, it will break down at high temperatures.</p>
<p>It is advisable to use synthetic oil whenever possible. A synthetic oil will help the engine of your car last longer. When you start your car, the synthetic oil will flow to the engine faster and thus prevent wear. As synthetic oil circulates better and remains stable at extreme temperatures, it is ideal for cold climates.</p>
<p>Synthetic oil is used in high performance cars like Mercedes Benz, Porsche, Corvettes and Aston martins. It is also what racing drivers use. The negative aspect of synthetic oil is that it is may be too heavy for your pocket. But at the same time it is resistant to thermal breakdown. If you are concerned with your car’s long-term health it is advisable to switch over to synthetic oil.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p>Start revamping your car and driving skills to drive safely in the extreme and severe, often-hazardous conditions that you usually encounter during winter. You have to reconsider certain driving techniques and rules specifically while driving in snow, blizzard or wet conditions that you will come across so often when the chill sets in.  You can have a look at the following useful winter driving tips that might help you drive smoothly and safely throughout winter.</p>
<p>While driving in winter you must <strong>always be alert</strong> of weather conditions. Listen carefully to all kinds of radio alerts and weather updates while driving. You might get caught up in a blinding snow-storm/blizzard if you are inattentive too often.</p>
<p>During winter the surrounding <strong>visibility on the road is quite poor</strong>, especially when it snows heavily or the sun remains hidden behind the clouds. In such dark and gloomy conditions you'll need to drive with your car’s entire lighting system turned fully on. This helps to enhance the visibility on the road substantially. It also makes your car conspicuous amidst several other cars and vehicles on the road, which is especially important while driving on a highway/freeway.</p>
<p>During winter the <strong>roads become extremely slippery</strong>. Your car can skid dangerously if you try to accelerate carelessly. So never drive at a high speed in winter, avoid jerky steering while braking or accelerating to prevent skidding. Always drive slowly within controllable, comfortable and safe posted speed limits.</p>
<div class="sidenoteright">Even four-wheel and front-wheel drive vehicles can encounter trouble on winter roads.  It's helpful to practice winter driving techniques in a snowy, open parking lot, so you're familiar with how your car handles.  TRB’s National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) : Winter Highway Operations examines changes that occurred between 1994 and 2004 to practices and strategies used to control the impacts of winter weather on the safe and efficient movement of traffic.  Winter Road Conditions Reports are made available during the winter months, from the end of October to April each year.  Winter road conditions often result in longer stopping distances.</div>
<p>However if you think your vehicle is hydroplaning/skidding dangerously then the best option would be either to step on the clutch or shift to neutral gear avoiding braking suddenly. Go in for threshold braking instead. Do not accelerate in panic and stay calm! Only after gaining full control should you try to steer the vehicle in the direction you want it to go.</p>
<p><strong>Check the braking system</strong> of your car prior to winter. Make sure that the brakes are working smoothly without jamming. Remember you will need them quite frequently while driving in winter to stay in control of your wheels!</p>
<p>Under normal driving conditions it is advised that you follow the two-second rule that helps you leave adequate space between your car and the vehicle in front of you for safety reasons. But in winter it would be wise enough to double/triple the two-second rule!</p>
<p>Bring down the speed to not more than a crawl while negotiating a sharp bend or corner on slippery roads in winter.</p>
<p><strong>Beware of black ice!</strong> These are road patches that appear black and shiny and are ideal areas where your car wheels tend to lose grip quite easily. Drive slowly and carefully with your foot on the clutch or in neutral gear along with squeeze braking over these patches, and avoid accelerating at all costs.<br />
Never drive when you are fatigued in winter.</p>
<p>In the car always stock up essential food, first aid, water, warm clothing, emergency lights, torches, blankets, shovel, towropes, chains, etc. to handle emergency situations. </p>
<p>If you're struck or stranded in a blizzard, or the traffic just seems to have come to standstill due to accumulation of layers of snow, <strong>do not panic</strong>. It’s better that you remain inside your car. Call for help if the cell phone signal is strong enough. You can draw attention to your vehicle by holding out colored flares, emergency flashers, flags, etc. To keep yourself warm, remain inside the car. Move your hands and feet to maintain proper blood circulation.</p>
<p>In order to handle winter conditions with greater confidence behind the steering wheel, find one of the short advanced driving courses that teach emergency winter driving skills. Get yourself enrolled before winter arrives.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p>Apart from <a href="http://www.transmissionauctions.com/category/auto-maintenance-tips/">well maintaining your car</a> you need to be economical in spending fuel. A slight change in your motoring habits will save both your time and money.  Here are some of the tips that will help you in reducing the amount of gas you are using:</p>
<p><strong>Drive steadily.</strong><br />
Your fuel consumption will increase if you stop and drive. Maintain a steady speed, do not slow down or speed up unnecessarily. It’s better to drive on a highway, as it will eat up less fuel.</p>
<p><strong>Avoid rash and aggressive driving. </strong><br />
This will increase the mileage by 33%. So drive within the speed limit. Driving sensibly is not only safe for you but also it will save your money on gas.</p>
<p><strong>Avoid starting and stopping your engine uselessly.</strong><br />
Idling your engine for one minute uses the gas amount equivalent the amount that is used when the engine is restarted.</p>
<p><strong>Try to use the roads that are straight, short and safe.</strong><br />
Corners and curves on the road will consume more gas.</p>
<p><strong>Don’t give much time to your engine for warming up.</strong><br />
During cold mornings 30 to 40 seconds is enough.</p>
<div class="sidenoteright">Standard transmission vehicles may save gas byshifting into neutral when going down hills steep enough tomaintain speed (although engine braking is safer on steeperdeclines).  You might save gas, but your engine oil won't do its job untilit's fully liquid, so you'll spend more money on overhauls.  All the fuel savings in the world will not matter a bit if you get wrecked while 'trying to save gas'.  If you can do several short trips in onelonger trip, you will save fuel and time.  Park car so that you can later begin to travel in forward gear; avoidreverse gear maneuvers to save gas.</div>
<p><strong>Reduce the usage of air conditioner.</strong><br />
When the air conditioner is on the gas consumption is more. </p>
<p><strong>Avoid driving on rough roads.</strong><br />
30% of your gas mileage is wasted out of dirt, dust and gravels.</p>
<p><strong>It is better not to keep heavy items on your car while driving.</strong><br />
Excess weight will reduce the mileage of your vehicle. Remember a carrier or a roof rack adds extra weight to your vehicle. So install them only when it is absolutely necessary.</p>
<p><strong>Try to drive your car on the highest gear possible.</strong><br />
Driving at a fast rate on low gear will consume up to 45% more fuel.</p>
<p><strong>Keep your tires properly inflated.</strong><br />
Under-inflated tires need more energy to roll; therefore it will reduce your mileage. <a href="http://www.transmissionauctions.com/tire-care-tips-that-save-you-money/">Properly inflated tires</a> are long lasting. Try to use large diameter tire for rear wheels.</p>
<p><strong>Use a recommended grade of “energy conserving” motor oil</strong>.<br />
Make sure the oil you are using contain fiction-reducing additives.</p>
<p><strong>You must know that you will be charged according to the volume of the gasoline.</strong><br />
So try to buy the gasoline in the early morning or late evening when the gasoline is densest.</p>
<p><strong>Do not feel the gas tank to the top.</strong><br />
This will result in spilling over the oil out of tank while you are driving.</p>
<p><strong>Make sure you replace the clogged air filters.</strong><br />
This will improve your gas mileage by at least 10%.</p>
<p><strong>When you are driving on highways close your windows and use vents to get outside air.</strong><br />
Open windows will cause wind drag reducing your mileage up to 10%.</p>
<p><strong>Avoid driving in busy hours to get rid of traffic congestion.</strong><br />
If possible while going out for a long distance take the advantage of carpooling.</p>
<p>Drive carefully following these simple rules to improve your fuel economy. These tips will not only save your money on automobile gas but also protect your car from wear and tear.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p>The tires accumulate a great amount of dirt and grime, and thus require regular washing and periodic waxing. So stop being lazy and <strong>start washing and cleaning your car tires</strong> frequently!</p>
<p>You should plan a thorough washing and cleaning of your tires with soap and water followed by waxing at least once a month. This helps to dislodge any kind of foreign particles that might be sticking between the treads, because these often lead to punctures.  </p>
<p>Periodic tire washing gives you the opportunity to inspect your tires for uneven wear as well as to <strong>check the air pressure</strong> in each of them.</p>
<p>You must <strong>regularly rotate your car tires</strong>. Rotation is the process of exchanging the position of the tires by bringing the rear tires in front and vice versa. Also, the tires should be swapped between the two sides. </p>
<p>Each tire of your car exhibits different wear patterns, and this kind of dual rotation helps to analyze the wear capacity of each tire in different positions. Rotation facilitates more uniform wear on each tire, so in this way you can increase the tread life of your tires by as much as 20%. Getting your tires rotated between every 5000 and 8000 miles should help you achieve this.</p>
<div class="sidenoteright">Check your tire pressure even if your tires look fine.  The correct tire pressure should be printed right on this particular type of spare.  If you have a small, space-saver spare, then the pressure for that tire is probably not the same pressure as your regular tires. Just because three of your tires are at 30 pounds doesn't mean that the fourth tire isn't nearly flat. You can check tire pressure any time of the day, as long as the tires have been sitting for a few hours or haven't been driven for more than a few miles.  Some tire gauges, such as the popular pencil-style gauge, are notoriously inaccurate.  We recommend a high-quality digital or dial-type tire-pressure gauge. When you bring your car in for service, ask them to check the tire pressure; most garages will do this at no additional cost. </div>
<p>Make sure that the <strong>alignment of all the four tires</strong> of your vehicle is done in the proper manner. Correct alignment of the tires indicates that all the wheels of your car are pointed in the optimum direction relative to the road and to each other.  If your tires are improperly aligned it will cause a strain to the tires – which in turn will start to wear out excessively, especially at their tread edges. This can affect the fuel efficiency of your car.</p>
<p>Get your tires checked at least once a year as to whether they are properly balanced and each of the wheels is spinning with the weights of all the four tires distributed equally. Otherwise you can expect your vehicle to wobble from side to side or hop up and down abnormally.</p>
<p>You must <strong>maintain a proper inflation pressure</strong> in all the four tires of your vehicle. In most cases the car owner's manual or a sticker inside the car gives you a proper idea about the optimum pressure you should maintain to get the best performance out of your vehicle.  Always check the tire pressure when the tires are cold.  By avoiding over-inflating or under-inflating your car tires, you can extend the tread life of your tires, improve driving safety and <a href="http://www.transmissionauctions.com/gas-saving-tips/">save gas</a>.</p>
<p><strong>Get your tires inspected</strong> regularly to detect any kind of puncture that needs immediate repair. It is very dangerous to drive on punctured tires, or tires that are losing air without your knowledge. Also, driving on punctured tires can damage your tires to such an extent that after some time they cannot be repaired at all.</p>
<p>So safeguard the health of your car tires as well as you can. This will contribute towards a smoother, safer and hassle-free driving experience for you.</p>
