@@user-bo9dr6lc6s But you can easily do the needed checks yourself at home or at a parking area? We have always done our maintenance and repairs at home and have never made a faulty repair. Tire pressure, coolant mix, oil, making sure the locks work, fixing the door that became crooked at the hinges, installing the extra front light beam, changing the wipers, changing dead headlights, changing the battery, jumpstarting the battery. Add on changing tires every year and fixing flat tires. Everything gets done at home and the inspectors are satisfied. We recently had to change the fuel cover flap of our 2011 Skoda Fabia (bought used) after we accidently walked into it while refueling and it accidently broke at the hinge. We Googled the scrap yard, reserved a spare part, picked it up and replaced it ourself with the help of a KZfaq video. We had never replaced a part like that before, but we saved close to 100€ by doing it ourselves. Using the dealership that much is just wasting money! It doesn't requier much skills to do 80% of the basics. Just get familiar with the instruction manual of your car, get the basic repair equipment like a good car jack and when in need, consult a video source for extra information. This way you can also keep a log in the maintenance manual yourself. My uncle has had his own car repair shop for decades. We still rarely used his services and only turned to him when in need of professional level help. If I drive a car here, I'm expected to do majority of the upkeep myself. The best drivers have made efforts to learn how their car model functions, so they aren't clueless at the first odd sound.
