How To
How to diagnose your vehicle properly for repair

-
Check engine lights. You should inspect the dashboard lights, such as the engine light indicator and the oil pressure gauge. Also, check the battery light indicator. If they have been flashing for more days than usual, it could be a sign that something is wrong with the vehicle.
-
Inspect the tire treads. If the tires are worn out, they could cause problems with handling and braking. You should also inspect the wheel treads. They should be clean and smooth. The best way to do this is to remove the wheels and take them off. A flashlight can be used to check how worn the treads are.

Check the level of brake fluid. Keep track of the brake fluid level in your vehicle. This will ensure that your brakes run smoothly. Low brake fluid levels could cause your brakes to fail when you apply pressure.

You should test the suspension system. The suspension system in vehicles absorbs vibrations and shocks. It provides better control and allows smoother acceleration and deceleration. Your vehicle might feel wobbly, or shake uncontrollably if it has a bad suspension. To determine whether your vehicle may have a suspension issue, you can try to put weight on the rear or front axle and watch the movement.
