22. Understanding Your Car: The Best Practices Of Maintenance

Welcome back! How would your life change if you didn't have your car? It would become incredibly difficult for most of us to do everyday things, yet we drive every day as if the car will last forever. 

On today's episode of Ladies Kar Care Talk Show, we're going to dive into establishing a relationship with your car. I say relationship because, with the amount of loyalty we expect from our cars with taking us to work, the store, kid's games, and more, it's essential to understand our cars' place in our lives. We discuss the importance of car maintenance and how you can learn just what your car needs, so no more guessing or waiting for a mechanic to tell you! 

Listen in as we talk about how you can begin fostering a connection with your car and how being consistent with maintenance will save you money in the long run. You'll learn the best way to budget for repairs, how you can add value to your car when selling it, and even how to find the best mechanic for your specific needs. We talk about what exactly all the dashboard lights mean, how to identify where an issue is with leaking fluid, and even how you can listen to your car more.

Your car will tell you exactly what it needs, and with a manageable monthly checklist and planner, you'll be able to keep up with all the maintenance allowing you to save money, stress less, and have that car for a long time!
