Buying a new car is never easy but for some it can even rival the SAT.<br /><br />With hundreds of articles handing out tips in buying a new car, you should know by now what you should look for, what you should bring and what else you should do, but do you know what you should not do when buying that new car you want?<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/31886521-115449606256038968?l=which-car-to-buy.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Toyota-miamihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07315901453947496312noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31886521.post-1154259007008397052006-07-30T04:30:00.000-07:002006-07-30T05:07:07.103-07:00<strong></strong><span style="font-family: verdana;">T</span>he upkeep of your vehicle can be quite an expense - from initial purchase to insurance to maintenance. And sometimes we get the sinking feeling that every time we need a car repair, were going to get taken for a ride. (pardon the pun!) Actually there are some ways to make sure you dont get a raw deal when dealing with a local body shop.<br /><br />After you get recommendations for honest mechanics, call around to check out the prices for certain jobs. Its always smart to get a second opinion.<br /><br />How about some preventative medicine? Keep your gas tank filled. This will help you avoid the gas line freezing up in cold weather. Also, driving on fumes allows little pieces of dirt at the bottom of your gas tank to run through the fuel lines with the last drops of gas. This debris clogs up the fuel filter and can cause carburetor damage as well.<br /><br />Sometimes a problem with your cars electrical system results from a simple blown fuse. Check to see if you have any blown fuses before investing in a tow truck!<br /><br />Keep track of how much oil your car uses. A sudden change in oil consumption means you need to see a technician.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/31886521-115425900700839705?l=which-car-to-buy.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Toyota-miamihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07315901453947496312noreply@blogger.com0
