The biggest mistake of buying a used car is not having a mechanic check on it. Since I have limited budget on this project, I need to find a mechanic who can do jobs with fair price.
I spent some time looking on yelp and found this shop. Before getting to the shop, 3 lights came up: check engine, air bag, and brake. The mechanic, Danny, spent a great amont of time describing possible problems. This car actually had very little oil left. The previous did nothing to maintain this car. After doing the transmission fluid change, oil change, brake pad/rotor replacement, and brake fluid change, the car started to run smoothly. All lights were gone.
The mechanic also found another amazing thing about this car. The front driver side door doesn't have a hinge. I guess I really can't expect much from a $3200 car. Anyway, just need to add that to the list. The car also needs new control arm brushing and drive shaft brushing.
Money spent: $572.37
Total expense: $3871.37
安全第一。首次進廠安檢，賣家說大話才剛換油，其實機油竟然快磨到光了～
