Take my car to the mechanic? Oh hells no!
I bought a OBD2 car reader, which was $50 on Amazon. LINK HERE!!
Yes, instead of taking my car to the mechanic and having them charge me $75+ just to plug this in and get some codes, then go online to translate the codes...
I'll pass, the whole process took me just 4 minutes.
First you have to know where to plug this in, so just google it! Car make + OBD2, it'll tell you exactly where to plug it in.
Second, take down the codes, I would wait to reset it until your mechanic gives you the clear.
Next, don't be fooled by subscription places when you try to translate your codes!!
Go to http://www.obdii.com
Just answer a few questions and voila! You'll know if its super serious or something dumb.
PS. If you're not sure, call a mechanic friend and make sure you're not going to die by driving your car.
Mahalo for reading.
Until next time.
