Automotive Fluids
Doug was very knowledgeable and shared many gems. We've all been discussing with others, how much we learned. I would absolutely recommend. -
Learn to Change Your Car’s Oil
You learn more than just how to change the oil; you learn about parts and the why. It's a little overwhelming, but the actual oil change itself isn't too complicated. You don't learn about your car specifically, just the general process. Still, I feel confident that I can change my own oil now! -
