Bumper to Bumper Radio, the car guys on KTAR, 92.3 FM in Phoenix, AZ, broadcast every Saturday from 11:00 am to noon. On this show, Dave Riccio of Tri-City Transmission in Tempe, AZ talks about how to take better care of your car in the New Year. Also on this show:

  • The importance of a paid inspection to budget for repair.
  • Whether or not you should be skeptical of a free inspection.
  • The benefits of consistently servicing your car at the same shop.
  • 1996 Saturn SL2: My engine runs hot then takes quite a bit of time to cool off. What are the causes of this and what should I do to fix this issue?
  • Chevrolet Astrovan: I’m noticing a vibration while idling and my check engine light has come on. What is causing this?
  • 2007 Ford Taurus: There is a vibration in my front end at certain speeds but my tires are fine. Is this a throttle issue?
  • 2016 Ford Taurus: What grade of tint would you recommend for my rear window?
  • 2011 Mazda 3: How often would you recommend cleaning my fuel injectors?
  • 2001 Volkswagen Passat: I recently purchased this vehicle then found out it was flipped. After speaking to the original owner I think it may have a crank shaft issue. Are any other parts affecting this leak?
