This week on The Best of Car Talk, Teddi’s Camry screeches when she starts it. She’s developed lots of techniques that seem to avoid the noise, but is she mistaking correlation for causation? Elsewhere, John’s wife says he’s triggering the Lardbutt Indicator in her Golf causing the horn to blare at random times, only when he’s driving it.

All this and more, this week on The Best of Car Talk.
