What’s there and what you can safely maintain without being a trained auto technician.
Have you ever wondered what all those gizmos on and in your engine are? Not sure what the various fluids are in your engine, and how to check them? Afraid to touch anything in case you make it worse? Ever wondered what all those alert lights on the dash are? And better still what should you do if they light up? If you would like to know more and even participate in the maintenance of your vehicle then this course is for you.
This is what is included in this Abby’s Garage Clinic:
· What is the meaning of all the alerts lights on your dash?
- What should I do when they go on?
- Is it safe to continue driving?
- What is a caution and what is an emergency?
· What are those things in the engine compartment?
- What do they do?
- What should I know if some are malfunctioning?
- What should I know about inspecting them?
- What about batteries, filters, fluids, belts, and more
· What fluids and components can I check and how do I do that?
· What can I service? And what should I leave to the experts?
This is a hands on course so be sure to bring your car. You will be opening your hood and following a standard checklist under the watchful eye of a real auto technician. (Don’t worry if you don’t have a car yet, we will lend you one of ours to practice.)
