Revel   10 #25 Posted July 21, 2016 You don't need to be. Its basic car maintenance, now part of the requirements of the theory test.  All drivers should know the basics of car maintenance. Such knowledge can save you money and help to make your car safer.  There's no excuse to spending half an hour to check over things when topping up the screenwash.  Do you also never check your tyre pressures or tread? Or the level on the brake fluid?  Yes, I check tyre pressure, windscreen wash, oil, coolant, and brake fluid once a month. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
