Car Maintenance: Ten Things Which Sound Important Need to be Fixed Right Now.

Every once in a while you need to get your oil changed. Sometimes dealerships offer this service at a huge discount, or even free. You take advantage of this great offer, and it’s good that you do, because you then find out there are 10 things you’ve never heard of that need to be fixed! Luckily the mechanics who check out your car discovered these things just in time. By taking care of them now, you’ll be sure your car won’t explode. And it’s only going to cost you $1,480.63. But the oil change is free.

And lets not forget to rotate the air in the tires while you're getting your free oil change ...

Johnson rod? I didn't even know I had a Johnson rod ...

That and the muffler bearings are not squealing and the right rear brake light fluid level is where it needs to be. Then you need to make sure that the connection between the front seat and the steering wheel is tight.

Can't forget that you need your high compression bumper bolts re-torqued, your pistonary sparkulators are worn out, you should have over sized seat covers and they recommend that you have your gas tank bored out.

Lets see, there's blinker fluid to change as well, don't forget that or your blinkers won't work anymore.
