Some food for thought: Multiple answers to "common" questions only help grow the sites knowledge base. Next time a newb comes looking for answers, he might have more luck finding 5 threads on the topic, rather than one be all-end all sticky by the automotive forum gods written a decade ago. Just my 2 cents.
I search, only to find a thread that does nothing but tell another noob to search. It's a
viscous cycle lol. I search so much that my post count is 4
I also ran a car forum for over a decade so I'm no stranger to these types of sarcastic (sometimes funny) replies. It really doesn't help the community...
