I'm a car expert

May 30, 2023May 30, 2023

A CAR pro has revealed information about automotive maintenance that could save car owners lots of money.

The TikTok creator regularly provides his followers of nearly 3million users with vehicle-related knowledge.

Cong (@conggeshuoche) recently shared a video showing drivers tips that could save them from an expensive trip to the mechanic.

The expert captioned the clip: "[This] car maintenance knowledge can help you save a lot of money."

He included hashtags like #car, #automotive, #knowledge, #tips and #carsoftiktok.

In the video, Cong showed an overview of a car's engine.

The TikTok had screen text reading: "Why Russian families can maintain their cars by themselves."

The clip went on to say that the majority of people spend thousands of dollars on car maintenance.

The automotive pro went on to show that the engine air filter can simply be replaced by going under the hood and removing the latch that keeps the cap over it.

Once take the top off of the filter, you can simply take the old one out after buying a new one from a retailer like Amazon, Autozone or a local auto part store to put into your car.

This will enhance the performance of the engine.

You can even replace your vehicle's battery on your own with no problem, the car pro said.

"Remove these two screws," Cong said.

"You can directly replace the battery."

To change a car's oil, you just have to remove one screw from the oil pan, he instructed.

Removing the pan allows you to drain out the old oil from the automobile.

Once you've completed the process of changing the vehicle's oil, screw the pan back in.

"The spark plug can be replaced by removing these 4 screws," Cong showed in the video.

Before removing the spark plugs, be sure to disconnect the vehicle's battery, according to Capital One.

"To replace the wipers, there's no need to go to a repair shop at all,"

The car expert said this as he removed a windshield wiper by lifting a small part of it and then sliding the rest off.

Replacement windshield wipers can also be found at most automotive retailers.
