Description
In this course we will be covering basic tasks that everyone who owns, or is looking to buy, a vehicle. All vehicles have problems and require general maintenance and we hope this course will give you the basic information needed to perform routine vehicle maintenance. This does not cover all maintenance on every vehicle as there are different requirements for specialty vehicles and situations. Many of our past students live in different parts of the world and certain maintenance tasks are performed differently in different countries. If you feel we have missed any basic maintenance demonstrations please feel free to send us a message and we will do our best to add to the course information we may have inadvertently omitted along the way. We do not go in to depth on many of these topics as this course is designed for the individual and not part of our Automotive 101 and 102 series that we also have on Udemy. We used several different vehicles in this series to change things up a bit and to give a different vantage point on different vehicles that you all may have and/or may encounter in day to day activity. If we can be of any assistance please feel free to message us here on Udemy and we will do our best to append videos to this course in order for you to receive the best value from this course possible.
