I have a 2000 Subaru, in July 2008 I had the head gaskets redone, now less then one year later my car overheated and the mechanic put in a new radiator but it is still over heating, so he now says I need to pay another $2,000 and get the head gaskets done again, Can this be right?

Like all other devices, your car also needs some special care to deliver the best performance. There is no doubt this is a machine, but it needs fuel and servicing to run excellently. It is said that if you take proper care of the car, be sure it will also take care of you and will not leave you in any trouble. And there is no denying the fact that every new owner needs auto repair advice to keep their vehicle in good and healthy conditions. It is a proven fact that most of the car breaks down as people do not take proper care of the cars. People who are very caring about the car face fewer problems with the repairing and other auto related problems.
Some auto repair advice to save your cars from repairing before time:
* Change wipers at a regular interval. If the wipers get old it can scratch your windshields which can be a big budget repair for your car as windshields are expensive. These windshields are the protection for you and also it keeps away the debris to keep away your view clean. You need a clear view when driving in the dark. Otherwise you may have fatal accident. Do not wait for it to get old or to make noise.
* The next auto repair advice is to remove particles from the air filters from time to time. If necessary change the air filters. These filters protect the engines from the dusts and other harmful particles. If these enter into the engines, there will be damages in the engine which can lead to expensive repair and even to the replacement.
* Take care of the tires. Often the car owners do not have the habit to check the air in tire. As an auto repair advice grow a habit to check this once in a month at least. It saves the tire to grow flat, saves fuel and also takes care of the engine. Replace the tires if needed even if it is not old enough. Replacement of tires in every two or three years is the best.
* The fuel of your car is the food to it. So always use the best possible fuel for your car. The better is the fuel, the better is the performance. Use such fuels that do not create pollutions and keep your engine clean as auto repair advice.
Along with these perform some routine check up like fluid change, battery maintenance and oil change and expect your car to run better with less repairing.
