My Octastar wheels are rusting/bubbling/flakeing on the inside of the wheels. This causes gaps between the wheel and tire, thus breaking the bead and deflating the tires within hours. Anyone else experiencing this issue? I've used fix-a-flat for short term fix, but it doesn't last long. A tire...

Hello folks! It's been awhile and I need some help. I'm locked out of my Mark8. I parked it a couple of months ago due to ignition issues, (another coil cutting out) and now my battery is dead. Not usually a problem except my (key) door locks don't work. I was told they froze up due to lack of...

I checked out a video in the Glove Box, the one of the drifting accident, and on the page it shows a banner with "girls in (my town) that want to meet you". Where can I find more information about how this works? My wife saw that and went ballistic! I tried to explain about IP address and that...

I bought a pair 2 months ago and I just can't ride it enough. It's a blast. It's also a workout in disguise! It doesn't take long to figure out the 'rock and roll' motion, and off you go! Check'em out and let me know if you Trikke too!

I always use my remote to get in my MarkVIII. Today, I tried the key and found that it doesn't work in the door locks. It works in the trunk, ignition, and glove box but not the doors. It doesn't seem to go in far enough in the door locks and it will not turn either way. I'm sure somebody here...

These pics are from a city street in Houston TX. Most guys wouldn't have a problem but the ladies would be a different story. I wonder if at night, you stick a flashlight against the glass from outside, would you be visable? Either way, I'd sit around all day and wait for someone to go in, press...
