It is a most frustrating thing to find oneself in the middle of a car repair, and having followed all the instructions to a tee, find that you cannot proceed because of some small hangup that is mentioned nowhere in the manual. If only you had someone on hand with some practical experience, someone who had successfully accomplished this repair in the past, than you could ask them your question and be right along on your way. But instead, you sit there stumped and scratching you head as to why you can't go any further.
If this situation sounds at all familiar, then you too are like many people who find themselves overwhelmed by automotive repairs when relying solely on an automotive manual to help them though the repair process. Far too often we are stopped by the simplest of hangups that could have been avoided if we had only someone to ask.
Well thanks to the miracle of the internet, we never have to stand there scratching our heads anymore. The internet is the single richest repository of information in the history of man, and it would be wise to employ all of this wisdom to your advantage. It can be difficult to find the exact information that we are looking for sometimes, so I am going to help you out my teaching you a search string to help root out helpful information when searching for car repair info on the net.
One of the best places to find answers to perplexing questions is at forum sites. Discussion forums are great because you will frequently find that someone else has already experienced your problem and submitted a question about it online. And, typically there is an accompanying answer to that question that has been posted by another user. And, in the rare case that you find a question that hasn't been answered yet, you can submit your question to the online forum, where it will be considered an open topic for discussion, and likely to get an answer of no little value. So how does one go about finding such discussions on the net?
I always use the following search string when I am looking for forum sites: "year+make+model+(repair or problem)+forum" and this seems to get highly targeted results with reliable accuracy. So lets say we were looking to find how to remove a headlight on a 2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee. I would go to Google and look up "2004+Jeep+Grand Cherokee+remove headlight+forum" in order to find this information. Here I would be able to read all kinds of useful info from people who have done the repair already themselves and can likely point to predictable trouble spots that might give me difficulty.
Lets say I need to look up how to remove a radiator from a 2005 Chrysler PT Cruiser. Again, after going to Google, I would simply look up "2005+Chrysler+PT Cruiser+remove radiator+forum" and I will likely find more than one site that has discussions pertaining to my topic. The internet is a powerful tool. Make sure you make it one of the tools in your toolbox.
