Knowing Your Car Automotive Class

With Care Leite

This class will become a series that goes into your automobile’s different systems in more detail. If you’d like to know when these classes are released, sign up for our Classes Newsletter.

We spend on average 17,600 minutes in our cars per year! Why not learn about how it gets you from point A to point B? In this class you will learn the basics of automotive function and how to care for your own vehicle in a mixed lecture and practical style class so get ready to get down and dirty under the hood.

We will be covering automotive maintenance and repair concepts for the student with little or no background in the automotive field. You will be learning a variety of major vehicle components including; theory of operation, intake systems, fuel delivery, ignition and charging systems, engine cooling, basic maintenance, roadside emergency procedure, and how not to get ripped off by your mechanic! There will be time for a questions at the end of class where you will have the opportunity to ask your own specific vehicle questions.

Learn what's what under the hood of your car and never again be nervous about that weird light on your dash, or that not so inconspicuous fluid stain in the driveway!
