So This Is Christmas

Merry Christmas is such an infectious feeling I like to feel that way all year around.

So if you are visiting just before Christmas, just after Christmas or even here on Christmas day I am sure you will find something of interest for you and in the spirit of Christmas.

It may be said that Christmas is no longer a celebration but this must be spoken by people that have never had trouble closing their eyes on Christmas Eve in an expectation of what maybe left for them on the carpet under the tree.

I continue to look forward to the surprise on my Grandchild's faces to this day at Christmas events.

Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas

Useful Tips For Working With An Auto Repair Shop

By Fred Gagnon


It is time for you to get serious about car repair so that you're not getting into situations that you don't want to be in. Perhaps you want to learn more of what you can do personally or know how to better find a good auto repair shop. Whatever the case may be, it's time to get started.

Before giving your car keys to the service department, make sure you know what the cost for the repair will be. Should you need clarification about the repairs, speak with the service manager or your mechanic before work begins. Don't find yourself stuck with extra charges later.

Be sure to read your owner's manual to find out what kinds of fluids (oil, brake fluid, transmission fluid, steering fluid) your car needs and to learn how to check and top these off yourself. Keep a few bottles of each fluid in the trunk of your car in case of emergencies.

When you are going to get your car repaired at a shop, ask the technician what type of parts they plan to use to get the job done. Many places use refurbished parts, but they would be willing to use new parts if you wanted to pay the extra money.

Look for an auto repair shop that displays their certifications for everyone to see. Get a good look at it to make sure that they are current. Even if they are certified, that does not guarantee quality work, but there is a greater chance of the work getting done correctly.

Before having repairs, see if you can diagnose the problem. Being able to diagnose the problem, even if you can't fix it, can help you from being fleeced by an unscrupulous mechanic. You probably already know that certain mechanics will come with lies to charge more money.

Thoroughly review your car manual. When you need to go to an auto repair shop, the professionals you are dealing with will want to know certain information regarding your car. The issue may be very simple to fix, saving you time and money.

Car Battery

Switching a motor vehicle battery is fast and simple. It always requires unfastening a clip over the battery and using a wrench to undo and strip away the connectors. (Obviously, you have to do this with your engine switched off!) Brush the connectors clean with a wire brush. Lift out the old battery and put the newest battery in its place. Attach the connectors safely and securely and refasten the clasp. You must be all set!

The confusion and discomfort of car repairs can leave you wanting to purchase a new vehicle. Take the time to make use of the suggestions and ideas in this piece. You will find that repairs for your car are not so tough to face. Keep your vehicle longer and enjoy it more through this valued advice.
