Check the warranty that is provided for your car and see how much of it covers any type of auto repair that you may need to have done. Look at all the benefits that you have acquired and see if any of these can be applied to your situation, such as free rentals or taxi service.

Determine what your needs in auto repair are, then you should assess the skill level that you have in auto repair and look into the possibility that the two of them combined can meet. If it is a repair that you can handle this may take a little longer, but it will save a lot of money for you.
