Christopher Gonzalez+FollowWiper Blades: The Car Fix You’re IgnoringConfession: I only think about my wiper blades when they start leaving streaks (and by then, it’s way too late).

larsontiffany+FollowTire Shop Price Shock: Bill’s Money-Saving HackEver feel like you’re getting played at the tire shop?

Snap a pic of your tire’s sidewall, compare prices online, and always call shops to confirm the final out-the-door cost. Watch out for shops pushing “free financing”—it’s often a red flag for inflated prices. This simple move could save you hundreds! #Cars #CarHacks #MoneySavingTips00Share
rgallagher+FollowWaterless Car Wash: Game Changer or Gimmick?Ever heard of a waterless car wash? It’s not just hype!

Bonus: it saves water, time, and is eco-friendly. Just don’t expect it to replace a deep clean. Would you try it or stick to the old-school wash? #Cars #CarOwnership #CarHacks00Share

emily27+FollowWinter Car Hack: Cabin Filter Upgrade!Ever wonder why your car’s heater is struggling or your windows fog up every winter? Turns out, your cabin filter could be the culprit! Swapping in a winterized cabin filter means better airflow, less fog, and cleaner air—plus, it helps your HVAC system last longer.

Anne Clark+FollowStop Wasting Gas Warming Up Your Car!Turns out, letting your car idle for 10 minutes on a cold morning is totally old-school and just wastes gas. Modern cars only need about 30 seconds to get going—enough time for the oil to circulate. Letting it run longer doesn’t help and can actually cause wear and tear. Save yourself a tank of gas (and some cash) this winter! Only exceptions: super old cars, extreme cold, or if you’re towing heavy stuff. Stay warm and smart! #Transportation #CarHacks #WinterTips10Share
schmidtgeorge+FollowTiny clear chip fell out of my key fob. Now my 2006 CRV won't start. What is this thing?I dropped the main key to our 2006 Honda CRV and a tiny, clear piece popped out and is lost. The car cranks perfectly fine but won't catch. I know the rest of the key fob circuitry is okay, and the battery isn't even required to start the car. I tested it by holding the spare key's broken plastic shell—which still has that tiny part—next to the ignition with the damaged key inserted, and boom, it starts right up. What exactly is this essential little component? Is it some kind of radio transmitter, or just the security chip for the immobilizer system? I need to know what I actually need to replace. #MechanicAdvice #CarHacks #Immobilizer #KeyFobRepair #Cars #Honda 01Share

Next time you’re car shopping, don’t get distracted by the giant screen—make sure you’ve got the stuff that actually makes life easier! #Cars #CarOwnership #CarHacks00Share
