Who taught you about cars??

Question

I'm 20 years old and I really want to learn more about cars. I have no idea where to go or how to learn though. My dad doesn't know much about cars and I don't know anyone that could really teach me. So I guess I'm just curious how others learned what they know when it comes to cars. :)

Answer 1

My dad

Answer 2

I bought a Haynes manual and figured it out myself. You could get in in touch with local colleges and see if they do basic car maintenance courses for adults.

Answer 3

i learnt about car from magazines and top gear and programmes like that  the best thing to do is if you own a car get the parts manual for your car from a library but you must have patients to read it and it doesn't just come to you in one day.

the best thing to start you off is learn the badges of the cars and then the engines and so on
