DIY Car Hack #9






9. Clean your engine (and other parts) for better serviceApologies in advance if this comes off like an over-bearing, car-obsessed relative, but a little time spent with soap and water saves you a lot of ruined clothes and grunt-inducing frustration later on. Cleaning out your engine compartment, for example, makes it easier for mechanics (and yourself) to find leaks, belt and hose breaks, and other problems, and you'll also get a cooler-running motor from your efforts. Check out 74 more wise tips on keeping your car running in tip-top shape.

Top DIY Car Hacks

So you got a car - but it's not the one you really wanted. The dealer was all out of Transformers? Now you can do you own car-mods. Here's the top 10 do-it-yourself car hacks. I'll give them to you one at a time so you can have time to take your car to the repair shop between hacks.





10. Make your own storage spaceJust because your car's designer was uninspired by the driver's-side space doesn't mean you can't have convenience and easy storage within arm's reach. Using some duct tape, yogurt cups, and other common items, you can put together your own DIY car console, or spend a bit more time and care to craft something a bit more slick-looking. And, while not technically all-the-way-DIY, adhering a sticky pad to your dashboard can serve as seriously convenient, no-stick place to keep your gadgets.
