Signs of Car Trouble

So this happened...

Signs / Skywatch 
 
My "Check engine" light came on. Lynn told me that certain auto parts stores would diagnose the problem for free! I went to the closest one and they showed me how to use their diagnostic device and then they analyzed the code. I needed new oxygen sensors but they did not have them in stock. We discussed where I should get the car repaired and they gave me a number for a local mechanic. I called him and made an appointment.

Ronnie turned out to be skilled and reasonably priced, and his garage was only a few miles from my home.

    That was fortunate! We got similar help from an auto parts store in Chattanooga years ago - they really were helpful. Just don't complain! Alana ramblinwitham.blogspot.com

    It's good that all went well with you, and that you just paid a considerable amount to have it done.

    Thanks for the education. I didn't know what to do should that happen to me. I'd probably just call the husband.
