Are you hot for an alternative car or vehicle? Are you looking for the right kind of ideas and information when it comes to such? Do you think you still lack the knowledge on these vehicles to actually buy one?

Well, your prayers are just about to be answered. This coming December 9th and 10th, a car show on alternative cars and transportation would be held in the city of Santa Monica. And yes, it would be the city's government who would be sponsoring and even hosting the AltCar Expo which would be open to the public. You can rush to the Barker Hangar at the Santa Monica Air Center to take part of this.

What would one expect from this one of a kind car show? Well, sure, there would be less of the usual vehicles clad in Jeep parts, Mercedes Benz parts, and Chevrolet parts. But there would be a real good share of alternative vehicles and those cars that have a high mile per gallon rate. Technology of such vehicles would also be showcased and shared. Seminars and symposiums would also be held so that goers could actually be able to interact with the experts on this matter. These would also be free of charge so interested parties need not worry about expenses.

"The price of oil, national security, health concerns, and environmental damage are all issues that need to be addressed now. Making more fuel efficient decisions ultimately helps everyone," says Craig Perkins who is the environmental and public works director for the city. He would be sharing his expertise and knowledge at the AltCar Expo on the vehicles that clean air and fuel efficient. Of course, he would be dwelling on such type of vehicles that are also already available for anyone to purchase.

According to the organizers of AltCar Expo, there would actually be over a hundred alternative fuel vehicles and high MPG vehicles to be showcased. The range would include vehicles that have various sources of fuel and power - from hybrid to electric to compressed natural gases, to hydrogen to plug-ins to ethanol and even to biodiesel.

As a manager of one of the largest auto store in Springfield,Massachusetts, Sarah has extensive expertise on auto parts and automotives in general. This 42 year old is a certified car enthusiast. You can visit Jeep parts for more information.

Volkswagen Polo

Volkswagen’s Polo. There’s something just that little bit special about it. Those clever men and women behind such iconic and era defining vehicles as the Beetle and the Golf GTi certainly have a knack for making compact cars. When the air-cooled engine of the beetle became superseded by more modern, water-cooled powerplants, and when the Golf began to grow bloated and put on weight with each successive iteration, the engineers at VW found themselves once again with a supermini-shaped hole and without a supermini-shaped peg to plug it with.
Cue the Polo. Legend has it, marketing chiefs at Volkswagen chose the name ‘Polo’ because, like ‘Golf’, it is a sport widely associated with a social upper-class; and while the original Mk1 Polo may have looked up rather than lived up to those lofty connotations, I can happily inform you that the opposite is in fact true of the current model.

I don’t mean to imply that the new Polo has suddenly appeared, well-built and sophisticated, after so many years of mediocrity within an oversaturated market. Rather, the car before us today is the product of those many years devoted to refining the original car.
That’s not to say that it’s been an entirely plush ride either: the engineers from Wolfsburg seemingly ignored some of basic principles of automotive design and construction when they built their third sub-compact car, however today’s Polo stands testament to both the successes the marque has enjoyed, and also to those failings suffered over the course of its lifetime. From the woeful build quality of the cars first off the production line, to the exhilaration of the record-breaking, supercharged MkII G40 variant; the current car really does feel like it has learned from every lesson.

My first ever experience of driving a car was in a first-generation Polo. I drove figure-eights in a good friends field and in spite of the fact that under my command the universal joint on the steering column failed, we remain friends to this day. Even with my youthful exuberance, I found it hard to find merit in the car. Most people, when asked to recall their first driving experience, talk of the liberty and exhilaration of the experience. I on the other hand, am more likely to mention the cramped interior or the sluggish 1100cc engine. Bear in mind these are the observations of a fifteen year old!

But each time the Polo had a makeover or a revision, the same Volkswagen engineers that had fumbled the ball during the car’s initial production, found ways to make up for their miscalculations. And they kinda over compensated…
The MkII G40 I mentioned earlier displaced just 1300cc but generated 115bhp. It reached 62mph in an impressive 8.1 seconds and could achieve a top speed of 122mph. Since the G40, Polo’s have been quick.
The MkIIIF had an entirely galvanised body and chassis mated with an over-engineered electrics and engine management system. I once installed aftermarket door speakers in a modern Japanese supermini, and the door cards were made of pressed plastic and behind them the door panel itself was made of what appeared to be wafer-thin tin. I did the same to my Polo GTi manufactured in the same year, and the corresponding door card was made out of a super-dense fibreboard with a plastic and fabric external covering and a medium-density foam internal filling to act as a sound dampener. Since the MkIII, Polo’s have been reliable and well built.

And now we’re on the MkIV, which is in fact approaching the end of its production cycle. With the next model scheduled to debut at the Geneva motor show later on this year, I wonder what we’ll say its contribution to the Polo legacy has been. Will we say ’since the MkIV, Polo’s have been economical and environmentally responsible? The Polo BlueMotion would have it so. With a 1.4l diesel engine which returns up to 72mpg while outputting just 99 grams of CO2, it’s certainly possible.
One thing is for sure though, right now, with a new version on the horizon, there are some exceptional deals to be had throughout the current Polo range. From humble beginnings, the current Polo has evolved into a sophisticated and distinguished car.

The notification sound for when I leave my lights on in my 01 VW Golf doesnt work anymore, how do I fix this?

I own a 01 Volkswagen Golf. Recently the notification sound that signals that your lights have been left on doesn’t work anymore. It seems that its somehow related to the door ajar sensor which also doesn’t seem to be working. My Check engine light has also been coming on every month or so. When my mechanic plugs the car into the computer, I don’t believe he gets much info on any specific problem. Im not sure if that is related or to this specific problem or not. Any help pointing me the right direction would be appreciated.
I checked all of my fuses, and they all appear to be fine. There are a few missing, but im not sure if they are supposed to be missing or not. Also, how do I figure out which fuse controls the door sensor's?

Thanks

Door ajar & lights are more than likely a blown 5 amp accessary fuse. This will have nothing to do with the check
engine light, that will probably be some kind of sensor going
out which should be diagnosed by the computer.
