You are so right. I have "some" mechanical abilities. As a result of the net, car forums and YouTube, I have done things I would never have dreamed of. This last weekend I changed the transmission fluid on my Boxster. And yesterday my son-in-law and I did rotators and pads on their Suburban.

An example of savings was my wife's Mini Cooper. It needed to have the brake fluid flushed. The dealer charges $260. I did it with a Motive Power bleeder for $11. I have used the bleeder at least 10 times. So easy.

And, and, there is just something about doing it yourself. A satisfaction thing.

Now the big stuff like clutches and such, I am toast.
