Questions to ask the shop
Ask whether the parts are new, rebuilt or used. Keep the invoice; it is part of the car's service history. If the car must stay overnight, ask where it will be kept.
Car care, briefly
Keep the fuel tank above a quarter in winter. Wash the underside of the car in winter to clear road salt. Have the battery tested before winter if it is more than a few years old.
