What is your car trouble?

I want to give back to Steemit community and provide some help on something that I know very well. Cars and how to fix them.

Please ask me about your car issue. Won't go into gear. Strange sounds. Don't know if you should take your car in to the shop. Just ask.

Are the recommended maintenance on our vehicles absolutely necessary? Aside from routine oil changes at every 5,000 miles, what are the musts on car maintenance please?

Oil changes are necessary. Not all cars have timing belts, but when they do, it is a good idea to replace them at recommend intervals. In some cases, a broken timing belt can cause motor damage. Anti freeze has anti corrosion additives that break down over time. Replacement is usually 30K to 60K miles.

Thank you for the helpful and informative response.
