Testing a car battery with a voltmeter is easy if you know the right way to do it. In addition to the voltmeter, you are going to need work gloves, a wire brush, and safety glasses.

Open the hood of the car after the engine and lights are off. Look to see if the car battery has visible signs of corrosion on the terminals, if so, clear off with the wire brush. 

We all have to take our vehicle in for an oil change with some regularity. In between those oil changes you may need to add oil to your engine if it starts to get low. In order to do this, you will need to know what oil "weight" you need. That information is printed on the front of the can of oil. But many drivers do not know how to decipher this code of letters and numbers. It really isn't all that difficult once you break it down.

Your vehicle's exhaust system primary function is to process and move the poisonous, odorless gases that are produced by the operation of the engine out of your car. If there is a breakdown in the system, then these gases can find their way into the cabin causing harm that is possibly fatal.

There are a few signs that you should be on the lookout for as signs that your exhaust system is leaking. 

The next time you stop to put air your tires, take a look at the tread to see if you may need to have your car tires aligned. Uneven tread wear is a very common symptom of unaligned tires and will cause your tires to wear down prematurely, potentially even causing a flat if the problem is severe enough. 

Careful routine maintenance of your transmission such as flushing and changing the fluid in it can go a long way toward preventing many major transmission problems. Because your transmission gears supply power from the engine to your wheels, it is very important that you take care of this important part. Every vehicle has different needs, so it is important to follow your manufacturer's recommended maintenance schedule when caring for your transmission.
