You don’t need a lift, a $10,000 toolbox, or a mechanic’s certification. You just need the right mindset—and maybe a little grease.
Whether you’re just getting started or you’re halfway through your first stuck caliper bolt meltdown, The DIY Mechanic’s Survival Guide is your go-to resource for fixing your car without losing your mind (or your 10mm socket).
Written by Carter Williams, seasoned technician and author of the Grease, Guts, and Gaskets series, this book delivers a perfect blend of humor, hard-won advice, and practical guidance for weekend warriors and first-time wrenchers alike.
Inside, you’ll learn:
Which repairs you can tackle with basic tools (and which ones to avoid)
How to build a reliable tool kit without going broke
The right way to research repairs, use scanners, and read codes
How to survive your first big project—and what to do when it all goes wrong
How to build a garage workspace, find community, and avoid toxic car culture
From brake jobs to busted bolts, driveway fails to diagnostic wins, this is more than a how-to—it’s a heartfelt roadmap for anyone ready to take control of their car, their confidence, and their ability to fix what’s broken.
Funny, real, and ridiculously useful, this is the book every DIY mechanic didn’t know they needed.
