Car Problems?

"What do you mean $400?! All you did was change the brake pads!"

If you own car, and you actually drive it, then chances are you've been ripped off by some greedy mechanic looking to cash in on your ignorance. Its happened to all of us. You go in to have an inspection done, and walk out 3 hours later with a large bill laden with repairs that you didn't know you needed (and probably didn't!). But fear not my fellow greasemonkey-hating friends! Help is on the way!

While searching for a few random parts for my current vehicle, I discovered a nifty page on the AutoZone website. This page is filled with how-to guides for virtually any work you could do on a car, truck, van, or SUV. From alternators to suspension, this site covers almost all the bases. The best part? Its in what I like to call 'plain English'! You don't have to have a degree to understand what they're saying! They tell you where the bolts will be, which plugs to pull, and even give you a time estimate. AutoZone really did their homework on this one. Good job guys!

-out.
