I don't care whether you have a Geo Metro or a Corvette, there's a forum out there somewhere on the internet dealing with your particular car.
Very true!! I've fixed a lot of things on our cars before by googling the cars' issues. It's mainly been stuff that easy to access- I haven't done anything under the car, for example- but even that has probably saved several hundred dollars over the years.

There are plenty of repairs anyone can do, and even if you can't, it helps to diagnose the issue before it goes to a mechanic.
