What’s something your parents told you about driving that you thought was true until you became an adult?

Did you know the braking system in your vehicle is hydraulic? It works using pressurized fluid. Over time, air bubbles can contaminate the brake fluid, causing spongy-feeling brakes and less effective braking overall. When this occurs, a brake bleed may be necessary, which helps to remove excess air in the fluid. Here are symptoms that can indicate your vehicle may need a brake bleed: - Spongy brake pedal... - Stopping takes longer than normal - Brake fluid leak - You are replacing worn brake pads or rotors See more

The water pump plays a key part in your car, moving coolant from the radiator throughout the engine to prevent overheating. If the water pump fails, the engine can quickly overheat and damage can occur. So, how do you know if your water pump is wearing out? Here are some signs: - Engine is running at a high temperature - Coolant leak under front-center of car - Buzzing or whining coming from under the hood... - Steam coming from under the hood See more

What did you want for your first car, but your parents said no?

Happy Mother's Day!
