We admit to our lack of car knowledge, can we change a tyre? Check the oil? Apparently not! Yet again Penny laughs at Mandy's pronunciation - while she explains that she can't even drive backwards (reverse) let alone look after her motor! Penny has been from suffering crinkly brakes - no Mandy didn't know what that was either. Penny's talks trees with great advice on tree planting - we are going to transform the paddock, and she knows her stuff! We discuss how quickly gardens go rogue if you don't look after them.

  After some time off for the Holiday Season-we are back with a new episode! We delve into the recent news of Hertz's huge sell-off of used Teslas and the risk to the consumer regarding actual battery performance. Do we know about the battery management system's health and can the average local shop test beyond what is captured on the big screen during a pre-purchase inspection for a deeper dive into condition? On this edition of WrenchNation, we are honored to have first-time author Shahe Koulloukian, a renaissance man of many talents and skills. One of which is his longtime passion not just for cars- but the people who drive them. An automotive TV spokesman, sought-after guest on television shows, speaker, educator, and founder of Mazvo Car Care Center in Phoenix, Koulloukian released his first book, “Car Confidential: Insider Secrets About Automobile Ownership, Car Maintenance and Road Safety” in November 2023.

Chase shares his ideas and challenges our thinking about why it seems we are more diligent about routine car maintenace to ensure our vehicle's longevity and reliability... but we don't always take that same approach to investing regularly on our own "maintenance" to ensure our skills and knowledge are sustainable and reliable into the future.    Got a question?

Do you know how often you should rotate the tires on your car? What about when it comes to checking your oil? And do you know what it means when your “check engine” light appears?
