    When I turn my AC on Auto or the highest fan setting when it's really hot out hear in Florida, it seems overly noisy. Almost like another unit in the engine area has kicked on to help. If I turn the fan down a few notches, the sound dims down. Whatever the sound is, it seems louder than the...

    Been reading a few battery threads but I didn't see the topic discussed. My OE battery on my 2015 Optima EX is dying. I got 4 years out of it so based on what I've read here I should be relatively happy with it. The battery is an H6 AGM. My local wallyworld doesn't have the H6 AGM battery in...

  7. Interior and Exterior Modifications
    So, I was inside the store for all of 20 minutes and I come outside to this I'm guessing a shopping cart. I thought I had parked far enough out, but I guess not. :cry: Anyone know whether this can be fixed without replacing the whole bumper? Since it's not metal, I wasn't sure.

    I'm looking at getting aftermarket 16 inch rims for my optima. I want to stick around the 16 inch range just to save ride quality and speedo accuracy. Is there a resource for really nice 16 inch rims or is it going to be better to go bigger?

    Me and my friend were talking, I have a 2011 turbo with an injen intake. Do you i need a tune in the long run? Will my engine lean out due to the amount excessive air going into the engine?

    I just found out that I could get a 2 payment deferment through KMFUSA. I had asked if it was possible last month so I could pay off all those pesky Christmas bills. That means no car payment till March for me. No fee, and no increase in interest rate. (interest does accrue during the...
