Make sure you often check the radiator. You need to allow your car to run for a couple of minutes, shut down the engine and then open up the hood. You should never open the radiator of a car that is running. Check radiator fluid by using a dipstick and remember to dilute coolant with water prior to adding it.

If you're having serious repairs done on your vehicle, make sure to get multiple estimates. Do not pay extra money for a service that can be performed at a fraction of the cost. Try and locate a shop that specializes in servicing your particular type of car. These shops can better understand the needed repairs for your vehicle.
-
Keep your car records on hand. It's a good idea to place them in the vehicle you drive just in case you're in need of repairs while you're out and about. The mechanics who work on your car will need to see your maintenance records before working on your car. Good documentation can help diagnose problems a lot faster.

Keep your car washed during the winter. While you may not see the need, winter is by far the harshest season for cars. Sand and salt on the roads can cause rust and corrosion. Best be sure to dry your car before driving so that you won't let any ice form on your car.

Beware of mechanics who do unneeded repairs on the car. Good mechanics will tell you about worn down pieces without replacing them automatically. If an auto technician performs unnecessary repairs or repairs that were not agreed upon beforehand, don't return to them for further services.

The warning lights on your dashboard have an important function. Refer to your car manual for explanations. These symbols light up to warn you of a problem. Ignoring those for a long time can worsen issues later.

Ask about labor rates and prices before giving the keys to a shop. A lot of places will put rates in the fine print and so you need to read over any paperwork carefully. You will need to know what to expect on the final bill. Many car dealerships may charge by "book time" which is a set rate based on how long the repair should take to do. Other shops may charge an inflated rate for a minor repair that should be done within a shorter period of time.
-
Never attempt to diagnose complicated car problems on your own. Don't forget that you are not a repair wizard. What can seem like it's simple to fix may be a lot harder, especially if the vehicle is newer. You can tell them your opinion, but leave the diagnosing of problems to the experts. Give them as much information as possible, but in the end, let them perform the diagnosis.

Take off your keychains from your car keys to reduce the weight on your ignition. The ignition isn't designed to hold tons of weight. It doesn't matter if it doesn't appear heavy to you. Once your car key begins sticking, you should immediately eliminate your heavy keychains.
You do not have to have repairs done at the auto dealer. There are several reputable technicians in auto shops and at dealerships. If you feel a good comfort level with someone, you should hire them.
