Regularly check your radiator. Allow your car to run for a bit and then turn it off and pop open the hood. Do not lift the radiator lid when the engine is running or if it is too hot. Check how much fluid is in the radiator with a dipstick and keep in mind that you should always mix coolant with water before pouring it in your radiator.

Ask questions to the mechanics who inspect your vehicle. You should ask about the problems you have and what to do to avoid them in the future. Engaging in preventative measures will likely save you money down the line.
-
Ask for Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) parts. These means they are parts that come directly from the manufacturer. Generic parts may be cheaper, but the quality may not be the same as OEM parts. They may initially be a deal, but the generic parts may make you pay more in the long run.

Prior to giving your car to a shop, know the costs of repairs. If you are unclear about certain things, clarification is needed before repairs are started. This will give you a good idea of what you will be paying.

Be careful of mechanics that do unnecessary repairs to the car.

If a mechanic tries to charge you for unneeded repairs, find another mechanic.

You have to figure out what you're going to get billed with and how to pay. Some shops will give an estimate on the repair time based on manufacturers guidelines. Simple repairs could be an all-day affair.

Check to see that your technician knows what he is doing. If they tend to talk in circles or ignore your questions, then they might not be all that you want them to be. You want to be able to trust the person doing your repairs, so go elsewhere.
