Bear in mind the complexity of the electrical and AC systems on an RV. When weighing the purchase, try to get a handle on what problems those systems might have, then weigh it against your own level of know-how in repairing them. It's one of many ways you can get in over your head on the purchase.
toyota camry 1988 Ready, Set, Test! Once you are certain that your student understands all the rules of the road, is exhibiting safe driving practices, and is a confident driver then take the test. Do not let a pending birthday or special event drive that decision as you want to produce a safe driver, not a reckless one.
Suspension dampers Suspension systems are difficult to troubleshoot without the proper equipment and expertise; if you suspect this might be the culprit, it's worth having a mechanic diagnose the issue.
The internal engine components are dependent on oil to keep functioning. Check the level and color of the oil. Twist the oil filler cap off and look on the inside. If there is a cream-colored substance on the inside it means that cooling water has entered the oil system from leaking gaskets. Forget about the purchase! If the oil smells burnt, this is also a sign of problems in the engine.
The universal cover will not be able to fit the car perfectly. Either there will be excess baggy material, or something will be peeking out due to lack of fabric. In either case, there is space for the unwanted to creep in. There is usually enough of a gap, and even milder things such as dust, work their way in. Although this may 'only' be dust, it is still a hindrance, and uncalled for. When covering your car, you expect it to actually protect it, and not do only half the job.
If you hear a loud roar when accelerating your car, you may have a problem with your exhaust system. Check for any holes and patch them. You could also have broken or loose clamps that have separated pipe joints.
car shocks absorbers When putting on new tires, you should have them balanced and the front end aligned. Bad alignment or balance will wear out new tires much more quickly and can severely impact the handling and ride quality. Often, balancing tries when they are new, does not mean they will still be in balance after 5-10,000 miles. I like to buy my tires from a tire dealer that offers free rotation and rebalancing for the life of the tire. I look for tires which handle well in wet conditions and avoid aquaplaning. Those are usually high end steel belted all-weather radials which also work pretty well in snow as well.
Perform a brake inspection - Are your car's brake pads up to the job? If not, replace same. Check the master cylinder for proper levels, discs and calipers for signs of wear and your car's suspension system including struts and shocks. Many garages provide a free inspection which is ideal for the person who is not familiar with this work.
