I am looking for a car (Not SUV) with good size that I can fit me (I’m somewhat tall) as well as my wife and 2 kids (toddler and infant).
Preferences:
· Hatchback (ability to carry baby gear and toddler gear, and my stuff)
· Lots of Leg room to deal with rear facing car seats
· All Wheel Drive
· Safety Features (Blind Spot Monitoring , Parking Assist, …etc)
· Nice to have (Adaptive Cruise Control, Moonroof
I have come to the conclusion that a sportback suits my needs best. The Kia Stinger and Audi A5 Sportback have too little leg and cargo room. Thus, I am deciding between Volkswagens Arteon and a Buick Regal Sportback (GS Trim) both used between 2018 and 2020. My quick research suggests a similarly equipped Arteon is probably $1,000 to 2,000 more than the Regal. They will generally be priced in the low to high 30K range. What do you suggest ?
Hi all,
I'm looking for a liftback, and going through the specs and features, both the Stinger and Regal GS have what I "need" while the Stinger has more "wants."
I wanted everyone's thoughts on these 2: I have a 2022 Stinger GT Elite (GT2) on order, came to 55k CAD and with 2% financing VS a 2018 Buick Regal GS that I saw with 50k km for 38k CAD. I've seen other used Regals and the price is around that (and 44k CAD for a 2020). All these prices include taxes/fees. I'd probably finance given the rates.
I like that the Buick is cheaper, but it's also quite old for that price. Could I get everyone's advice here on the 2 please?
Started happening a couple months ago. Just randomly wouldn't start. The starter would click and that would be it. Though if you come back later, it would start. Started progressing to get worse and worse. Finally it wouldn't start on a Friday after work, tried it Saturday and Sunday, no start, but started fine on Monday.
So now, I got it home and it just won't start at all anymore. I took the battery to Walmart (2 years old) and got a free replacement as they said it was bad. Get it installed and same exact issue. Single click at the starter and no start. Ordered a new starter and got that installed. It started once right after I got it installed. But only once. I am back to a single click at the starter with no start.
I got a wrench and was able to rotate the crank so at leas the motor should be locked up. It also won't start in P or N.
Hello all, as the title says i have recently gotten the p0010 and u0401-71 error codes for my car.
The p0010 error code i have had a little while now. Had my oil changed last week and today got in the VVT solenoids, replaced both the intake and exhaust parts.
Unfortunately i’m still getting the check engine light with the code, was wondering what other things it could possibly be since most of my researching i’ve done says that should be the fix, or maybe i could have done something wrong?
The u0401-71 code is new, it popped up when i had the engine light rechecked today since it didnt go off when i replaced those other parts. Seems related to the ABS and says invalid data received from engine control module, wondering if it has to do with the “service stabilitrack” thing that just started popping up as well. About to do my own research on that, but figure i may as well ask about it while making a post about the other
Thanks in advance!
Here is my 2014 Buick Regal GS. This photo is from the day I bought it, back in 2017. It had about 25,000 miles on it at the time. It now has about 60,000 miles on it now. I've moved south so AWD is no longer needed. Thinking about trading this beauty in for RWD. Any suggestions?
I still think this is one of the most underrated cars available (the GS version). It drives nicely and it has an amazing interior (much better than the inside of a Cadillac). The exterior competes with sporty European cars IMO.
BTW, you have to get it in red!
