My husband doesn't trust me to do my own car maintenance, What can I do so he believes me?

Claudio Drullard: Your husband does not trust you. Ask him what it would take to overcome his distrust. Look into somehow getting a certificate in auto mechanics from a trade school

Maritza Ebanks: When you are done doing yours you can come do mine. I approve!

Marquetta Gimm: In addition to saving money, you make sure the repair is actually done and done properly. Some shops don't do proper repairs because they're incompetent or dishonest. Some times they forget.Does your husband know anything about car repairs? If he does, ask him to watch you do a repair....Show more

Serita Hefferon: Wow...........so sorry the COMMUNICATION seems one sided for sure. I am not a liberal gal and you don't seem one either.........but gals in general that are doer's as we are.........are independent.........express who you are ......DON'T LOSE YOUR VOICE.......and talk things over much more to resolve this.......men try to fix all and don't think about what it is actually! doing........thank him for his concern and stand your grounds.....it is your car.Plus both of you work don't you.........so what is the problem?...Show more

Ninfa Aronica: don't let the factory change anythingthey only change 4 spark plugs that is itI know I brought my car home checked the plugs they changedand they only changed 4, oh

Lynn Hollars: It doesn't matter if he believes you or not, since it's your car. If it was his car, then you should absolutely get his okay before tinkering with it. I don't see why you didn't just buy the parts and do the work yourself, without even bringing it up with him. It's the car you drive and you aren't asking him for the money for the parts. If something goes wrong, it'll be on you.Maybe he'll believe you can do it, after he's seen that you did it and it all turned out fine. Just because you have the money to pay someone else to do it, doesn't mean you need to spend it that way (esp if you're WILLING to do it yourself). ! Save that $80 you'd have paid a mechanic, and buy something fu! n for yourself as a treat. ☺...Show more

Wally Gower: You put alot of men to shame

Tijuana Tatsak: Just do it. I doubt that he uses the same arguments if you say that you're going to do household chores. Much better that you pay for help to do the boring jobs you DON'T like doing.

Jefferson Sarson: Why are you asking permission? Just do it and get him some panties.

Donald Caravalho: Wish I had married someone more like you. Maybe it's a challenge to his manliness and whatever antiquated ideas he has about a traditional relationship. Maybe he'd be embarrassed if others knew his wife was repairing the car instead of him. Who knows, but all I can say is he's a dumbass for blocking you. So, I would either just do it and tell him later, or I'd invite him to help because it's an opportunity to educate him about it if he doesn't know anything about car maintenance and iIt's certainly an opportunity to show him what your skills are. If he doesn't know how! to do it himself then maybe you could watch a YouTube video together first so that he has an idea whether you're doing it wrong or not when you change them. Just be sure that you do it right with the right tools. Use a torque wrench, gap the plugs, use thread lube, etc. Good luck with that oaf....Show more

Faviola Dewire: Leave him and marry me.

Phillip Modafferi: Ur a women why do U like doing labor ...

Stan Conley: Why do you need his permission? Why do you need the internet's confirmation?

Alane Antes: Does he already know that you have experience fixing cars? Why do you need his permission? If it's HIS car then he's free to fix it however he wants ... if he wants to pay a mechanic rather than have you do it, that's his prerogative. If it's your car (either your own or joint), then you're free to work on it without his permission. If for some reason you screw it up, then be prepared to pay for the mechanic out of your own pocket.I'm wondering w! hy you married a man who doesn't trust you, and who won't at least agre! e to you trying this before he pooh-poohs your suggestion. Does he always tell you what you can and cannot do? Why did you marry him if he doesn't believe what you tell him?...Show more

Elva Batie: You need to be more assertive. This has nothing to do with the car but your willingness to do as he says and he does not have the right to tell you what to do. Its not like he will come to any harm if you do this.

Marco Stolarz: Change the plugs, quil', and don't say a thing. If he asks, "Did you get your plugs changed?" say "Yes." If he says "Who did it?" or "How much did it cost?" you respond "I did it, cost $40 and 30 minutes, and it runs better than ever. Want me to change your out, too?" Your car, your call.

Guy Bonamico: Why do you feel you have to get his permission? Just do it. Does he ask your permission to do things? I doubt it.

Elissa Curlin: Change it, tell him, and give him a bill for the money you saved. It may be that he has an ego thing... ! you can do something he can't... or it could be something else. Either way, it smacks of sexism and control. If you don't do it yourself, you'll only reinforce his weird attitude and encourage more of the same.

Delmer Pectol: It's your husband accept what he is saying it doesn't mean that he doesn't trust you his saying that you both earn enough to get somebody to do it just leave it as that there is more to life than arguing over parts that need to be changed on the car your just upset because he said that he doesn't want you doing it. It doesn't have anything to do with trust do not go behind his back he will feel betrayed and that might make him not trust you
