FAQ
Do I need to have a degree to work as an automotive mechanic? Can I do part-time studies?
While a degree is not required, it does help. Employers prefer applicants who have completed a full-time degree. It shows you are dedicated and have worked hard to achieve your goals.
This doesn't necessarily mean you can't continue to work while studying. Some universities let students complete their coursework in the summer and then continue their studies during the school year. Others let students take classes part-time throughout the year.
Is it really worth becoming a mechanic.
This question is dependent on your life goals. If you are looking to make money, then yes. But if meaning and purpose is what you seek, then no.
You don't need to be a mechanic if you don't know how. It's not going to make you rich. It's unlikely that you will be famous. It is unlikely that you will be made famous.
You'd have to spend years learning how things work. Also, you would need to hire someone else to fix it if it broke down. This is why most people don’t bother. They find something else to do.
Summarising, if your goal is to make lots of money, go for it. The mechanic's profession is not the right place for you if it means that you will live a fulfilled life.
What can I do to fix my car as an hobby?
Take up a hobby in car repair if you have an interest. It is possible to learn about cars, repair them, purchase parts, or simply enjoy them. This would be a wonderful hobby if you're looking to find something completely different.
It's difficult to make this a fulltime job. It takes dedication and hardwork. Also, you will need to put a lot of money into it.
If you don't have any good reasons to be involved in cars, it may be better to just let it go.
What is the difference in a mechanic and an auto technician?
The two are similar but not identical. The mechanic fixes cars while the technician maintains them.
A mechanic must be skilled in manual dexterity and able to complete simple tasks quickly. They should also be able correctly diagnose and repair any problems.
An automotive technician requires more technical skills than a mechanic. They should be able read blueprints and use tools like drills and wrenches.
They should be able safely to perform complex procedures. They must be familiar with all types of electrical and engine systems.
They must also be able comprehend how the various parts interrelate with one another.
The result is that a mechanic often earns less than an auto technician. Both jobs offer many possibilities.

How To
How to be an Automotive Technician
An automotive technician performs repairs and maintains vehicles. He/she is employed at automobile dealerships, garages, service centres, and auto shops. He/she repairs cars, trucks, motorbikes and snowmobiles for customers. An automotive technician must be capable of diagnosing problems and making repairs safely, accurately and efficiently.
To become an automotive technician, a person must first earn an associate's degree from a vocational college. After completing this program, he/she will need to pass the National Institute for Automotive Service Excellence's (ASE) certification exam. ASE stands in for American Society of Mechanical Engineers. Two sections make up the ASE certification examination. The first section tests for mechanical knowledge, the second for practical skills. You must attend one of the authorized testing sites to take the test. These locations can be found online, or by contacting your local car dealer.
After passing the test, a candidate must pass a state examination before becoming licensed as an automotive technician. The process will vary depending on where an applicant lives. Some states require applicants to take a training course while others allow them the freedom to study on their own. Some states allow technicians to become licensed right away after receiving their license. While others wait until they have had at least six years of experience as an automotive technician.
Apply to your local dealership to become an automotive technician. New employees are usually apprentices when they first get hired. Apprenticeship programs last about three years. A student will learn to repair basic things like changing oil, adjusting brakes or replacing tires. They also learn how spark plugs are cleaned and inspect engine compartments. Some students are taught how to repair engines and replace transmission fluids. Most schools offer classes during regular business hours. Some schools offer evening classes, however.
When a student has completed his/her apprenticeship, they become a journeyman. Journeymen spend typically four to five years learning to install major systems such as transmissions and differentials, steering gear, suspensions and drive shafts. You will also learn how to repair complicated electrical components, as well as how to remanufacture engines and rebuild transmissions. Many employers prefer to hire Journeymen because they understand the job well.
Once a candidate passes the required exams and is granted a license, they might consider opening their own shop. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, nearly 1.7 million automotive mechanic jobs were available in 2010. This number is expected to increase by 18% between 2009 and 2020. If a candidate decides to open his/her own shop, he/she should prepare to invest many thousands of dollars in equipment and supplies.
The salary of an automotive technician will depend on many factors including where you live, your education level, experience and the type of employer. A jobless person could make an average of $20,000 annually. A person with only a high-school diploma could make around $21,000 annually. An associate's degree earns approximately $24,000 annually. Technicians with bachelor's degrees earned about $27,000 per year. Master's degree holders make around $32,000 annually. A common trend is for salary increases to occur so a professional making less than $30,000 can reasonably expect to be earning $40,000 or more within a few years.
