What can you do yourself?

[Ergal]

Ever since I got my car I started to learn how to do certain things myself, like change the tires and the oil, replace or charge the car battery and other minor things. What are you guys able to do you your car and what do you leave for the professionals?

I do as much as I can toward the maintenance of my vehicle. An oil change may be advertised as just $29.00 at some places but that's $29.00 I could spend on something else. It's always good to do it yourself if you can.

I can change the oil, tires, wipers. I can change my brake pads and rotors (of course the shop has to turn them). I can change out the blower motor (did this once). I can change any fuse. I can even change the gas pump. I can probably do more but I have not had to.
