Below you'll find five questions that touch on five different automotive systems. Fair warning, the multiple-choice answers are a little tricky and designed to get you to pick the wrong answer.

I'm a recently retired master mechanic that worked in the retail auto repair business for 30 plus years. I'm here to tell you that basic automotive skills remains important for everybody to learn.

When you don't know anything about automobiles the shop picks up on this immediately. In some cases, they might use your lack of car repair knowledge against you.

In my personal opinion, the more the consumer knows about their specific vehicle, the less likely they are to become a victim of unnecessary charges.
