Learn car repair

Learning car repair image

You can learn car repair from reading books along with some practical experience by working on your own vehicle.

Every automotive repair course offered at technical schools or colleges require the purchase of a recommended textbook. It is up to the individual automobile instructor what this recommended resource will be.

As I was looking through the reviews of the books I have already purchased. I found a few of these are required reading by some of the top auto repair instruction courses.

On this page you will find reviews of three car repair books that I have purchased recently.

This first book is about learning auto body repair. I have never done any bodywork myself. Recently I decided to attempt ASE certification in automobile body repair.

I am currently a Master technician in both car and heavy truck. If I am successful in becoming a master auto body technician I will have achieved World-Class ASE certification.

The only way to accomplish this is by being a Master certified mechanic in three separate areas. This means after 25 years in the business I am still learning new skills.

Learn auto body repair

After reading this recommended book, I was able to pass the first B1 ASE certification test.

And note that this was without any actual experience at performing bodywork. Let me give you a brief description of what is included in this publication.

Why would you want to learn auto body repair? Body damage from hailstorms, parking lot dings, or a major accident are likely to happen at some point in your driving career.

Wouldn’t it be nice to be able to perform your own bodywork at home?

The complete guide to auto body repairs has all the information you'll need to deal with any dings, dents, and bruises your automobile encounters.

From needed tools to materials and techniques, this book takes you all the way through the process. Beginning with creating a strategy, then moving through disassemble, repair, reassembly, and even preparing the surface for paint.

Learn how to repair damage from collisions and also rust repair.

Learn car repair engines

This engine performance auto repair book is based on the fact that simple problems should always be checked first.

This very practical, book introduces you to diagnosis and troubleshooting of automotive engine control systems.

With a very technical but easy-to-read and understand presentation this book serves as a single source for information on advanced engine performance diagnosis.

Topics include, fuel injection and ignition system diagnoses, emission testing, extensive scan tool diagnosis and more.

For those who need to pass the ASE Engine Performance certification test as well as the Advanced Level Engine Performance (L1) test this is a must read.

A valuable reference book for automotive service technicians wishing to improve their diagnostic and troubleshooting skills as well as those who do their own car repairs at home.

You can learn as much or as little as you need to know. As I stated before the auto repair business is one industry where you never stop learning.

Learn manual transmission repair

Did I save the best for last? Well this book is inexpensive, has nearly 200 pages and has received nothing but 5 star reviews. The problem is this is one narrow subject.

This learn car repair resource explains how to rebuild and modify manual transmissions from both rear wheel and front wheel drive cars and trucks.

This is a specialty skill that is in high demand in the auto repair industry. Mainly due to the fact that very few people can overhaul a manual transmission.

The how to publication explains the principles behind the workings of all manual transmissions, and helps readers understand what they need to do and know to rebuild their own transmissions.

In my opinion after you learn the theory of rotation and gearing and then apply them with some hands on experience you can repair any manual trans, big rig or economy cars.
