About the Cars 101 workshop:
Do It Yourself Darlin is VERY excited to offer a CARS 101 workshop again! Just like houses, cars can be a very intimidating topic to wrap your head around as a beginner, even when you drive one every day! In this workshop we will:
- Identify key parts of a car around the body, underneath the hood, and inside with vocabulary and definitions
- Discuss the fundamental mechanics of how a car works, and what red flags to look out for
- Discern what elements of car maintenance are DIY friendly and which are not
- Learn about fluids under the hood and how and when to replenish them
- Practice replacing a tire
- Discuss car safety and what to keep in your car in case of an emergency
