  1. They should give you a new car or something. Good thing it is under warranty. And yes, look into the lemon laws if they are taking too long to fix it. You shouldn't have to be without your car for more than a month, even if they give you a loaner.
  2. I'm not a mechanic, but have they taken apart the wheel bearing and hub assembly to make sure it isn't bad? With the wheel off the ground, is there play in the hub if you push the tire back and forth? It shouldn't be loose at all. Not rotational, but side to side. Also, is something on the inside of the wheel lightly hitting the metal shield behind the brakes? You'd see metal wearing away somewhere if so.
  3. Does it have the black vinyl covering it? Maybe try one of the vinyl cleaners that blacken the fading vinyl's? Meguiar's Ultimate Black Solution Finish Black Wow!
  4. Any codes? Problem with fuel lines or spark plugs? Ignition Coils need replacing?
  5. Sounds like Honda screwed up your previous oil change or broke something during the mounts replacement. Was it this bad before that? Did they forget to tighten the oil filter?
  6. Depends. If it's the kind that pulls your car along through the machine, leave in neutral, engine running with wheels straight. If it's the kind you stop in the middle and the machine spins around you washing your car, you put it in park. Best to leave running also. There should be signs telling you what to do.

    Latest Topics

    This video shows how to create a latest topics block, showing the full post, and then adding that block to a new page.
  10. This video shows off some of the user interface you can expect to see in the article management area of the ACP.
  11. Site updated today. Let me know of any issues.

  12. All templates are capable of using template tags, and as such when you edit any type of template, there will be a "template tag help" link. Clicking this produces a sidebar (there is then a link in the sidebar to open a separate popup) that details all of the template tags you can insert to include IP.Content data within your template. However, with database and article templates, there are additional variables that are passed into the template to allow it to manipulate and display the HTML that represents the content. For instance, different data is retrieved and available when you are looking at a list of articles compared to when you are viewing a single article. You need to know what these variables are in order to be able to properly modify the template to display data in the manner you want, and as such, a template variable help popup is available that will detail the variables available for each template type. When you are editing a template, click on "template variable help" and a new window opens displaying the variables you can expect to be available to the template with a short description of each variable. If you get stuck, this help window can help shed some light on the variables that are available, what values they should contain, and how you can use these variables to your advantage to build a more dynamic and useful interface for your database.

    Media Management

    The media module in the IP.Content 2.0 ACP section allows you to quickly and easily manage multimedia files you may need to use with IP.Content. While you can certainly upload your files through FTP, or link to offsite files, you may find it easier to upload the files using the media section of the ACP, and then copy the links for use within pages, templates, and blocks. From within the media module, you can create folders, upload files, move files and folders, rename files and folders, and delete files and folders. Files can be listed and you can click on a file to view it (or right click on the file to copy the link). This simple tool can be a timesaver when you simply need to upload an image quickly for use within a page template. The media folder is defined in the media_path.php file in your forum root directory, giving you the freedom to move and organize your paths as needed.

    Sharing links

    IP.Board 3.1 introduces a new feature that is available for any application to make use of: [url="http://community.invisionpower.com/index.php?app=blog&blogid=1174&showentry=4162"]sharing links[/url]. IP.Content 2.0 makes use of this new feature in the custom databases (and articles) modules to allow you to more easily expose your content to a wider audience. Along with supporting sharing of your content with third party services such as Facebook and Twitter, you can now also send an article via email, print the article, and download the article easily by clicking the appropriate icon under the article body. The additional printing and downloading features allow the content to be shared, online as well as offline. Within the articles module specifically, the article image that you upload when posting the article (optionally) will automatically be flagged for use with Facebook when someone uses Facebook to share the link. This ensures that the correct image is the one Facebook displays to other users. Similarly, we pull out an appropriate extract of textual content for Facebook to use as well. If the user is logged in to Twitter or Facebook, sharing the content becomes even easier, not requiring you to even leave the site. We hope that by providing tools to make it easier to share content on your site, your content will be exposed to a wider audience, bringing you more traffic and making your content more easily and readily available to the world.
