Rooster, I can't resist
jumping in here, and I hope no one minds if I rant a tiny bit. I really wish I could get a booklet on what maintenance is truly necessary. I am a car repair dunce and when I go to the dealer they give me a long list of things I "should have done" but when I pressure them on what is most important, they seem to hem and haw. So what gives? Everyone now is pushing timing belt replacement but then the small print says "timing belt wear cannot be detected." Now, I don't want to be riding down the road and have my belts blow up, but how should I know that $140 is really necessary? And when? (My car has 58,000 miles)
Then they say I need a new cap and rotor thingie--when I ask what that is for, they say "it keeps your car running" or something like that--another $180 for some vague generalities. My car is running OK, but again, I don't want something to go wrong all of a sudden. So I dread every maintenance visit. BTW, I'm not asking you for free answers... I'm just telling you what I would really like to know from a knowledgeable person like yourself at hopefully a reasonable price. I'm willing to pay up $20 to $30 for detailed info--obviously I don't have money to throw away (or I'd get a new car and be done with it). If you could have a site devoted to teaching car repair/maintenance dunces like me what this all means I would be your devoted fan. Make it look nice to appeal to women, I suppose. And a weekly ezine would be nice. Anyway, good luck to you.
