A helpful mechanic has shared his wealth of knowledge in a YouTube video dedicated to the five things you should never do to a modern car.
A mechanic has warned motorists to never do these five things to their modern car or risk having to spend big on necessary repairs.
From avoiding keychains to crawling to the petrol station, the mechanic has listed five main things you should never do to your new and modern car in 2024.1. Never drive your car on a low tank of fuel The first thing that the expert said you should never do is drive your car a low tank of fuel all the time.
The mechanic added: "Fuel pumps are very expensive in modern cars and I'm glad that they are as they are very reliable but when they do go because you're always running it on low fuel, they can be very expensive." He said: "Direct injected cars only - it's unfortunately the byproduct of carbon build-up. You can never prevent it but you can actually change your driving habits and and kind of maintenance habits to prevent it from being an issue."
He also warns people not to "hang things around the steering column or indicator. The expert said: "I understand folks want to accessorise their cars and make it personal and that's perfectly fine. But, around the steering column area, that's a moving area and behind the steering column of modern cars, there's something called a spiral cable.
If you put all this extra weight onto the mirror then you could end up pulling it off and damaging the windscreen along with it.
