There is nothing like looking through a clean windshield. Use a good glass cleaner and soft cloth when washing the windows. Try this trick - clean the inside of the windows with a horizontal motion and a vertical motion on the outside of the window. This way if there is a streak you can quickly identify which side of the window it is on.
The first thing you want to do is go to your local auto parts near me and pick up a carpet and upholstery cleaner made for your car. There are many different brands and I have tried most of them. They all work pretty much the same.
For the best results use a pump can of motor oil that you can pick up at an auto parts store near me. However, avoid using old oil which contains acids that will cause your car to rust.
take me to the nearest auto parts store have a 1996 Buick Park Avenue and when the "ac" is on there is a noise which sounds like the fan. I temporarily replaced the fan with a new one and no change, so I put old one back in. The noise disappears when the vent is activated and the "ac" turns off. I can hear the fan still running but no noise, also the fan will run quietly at all speeds.
Lastly, each car comes with this item but seldom are they very worthwhile. I am speaking of the tire jack. Most of these jacks are flimsy and are difficult to work with even when used with the particular car the jack is designed for. If a friend or a stranded driver needs a jack, you may be unable help them because of the multitude of jack designs.
A trip to your local mechanic for a tune-up is a must before you leave for vacation. This can be done by a smaller local mechanic or larger chain like Meineke, Pep Boy or Midas. They will check things like the engine, heating and cooling systems, belts and hoses, coolant, power steering and more. It is better to take the time and spend some to be sure your vehicle is in prime running condition before you leave. You surely do not want to get stuck somewhere with a shady mechanic. I am sure everyone remembers the Griswold's from National Lampoons Vacation and their mechanic experience.
Your rear view mirror falls off. Go down to the auto store near me and get that handy little kit they sell for exactly this reason. You can have that mirror back in place with in about 15 minutes. the kit contains a tiny piece of sandpaper, a primer/cleaner to remove residue from the windshield and mounting button and a glass tube containing an adhesive. Just follow the instructions.
Now, you should be aware of this fact however. That fuse blew for a reason. It sacrificed itself so the wiring or an electronic component doesn't go up in smoke. So the fuse is an important safety device.
