Hands-on auto repair videos, FAQs, codes, and shop advice for DIYers.
EricTheCarGuy is an automotive DIY site centered on repair videos, diagnostics, tool discussions, blog posts, and vehicle-specific how-to content. It also offers premium videos, VManuals, FAQs, automotive code resources, and an Amazon storefront with recommended products.
Why it stands out
- Built around a recognizable long-running mechanic persona rather than anonymous repair content
- Combines practical repair demonstrations with diagnostic reasoning and shop experience commentary
- Covers both specific vehicle jobs and broader maintenance questions for home mechanics
- Includes community and premium options for followers who want more than public videos
- Affiliate storefront ties tool and product suggestions to the site’s repair content
Good to know
- Some videos and member content are behind a premium subscription or patron-style support option.
- Coverage depends on the vehicles and topics Eric has produced content for, so it is not a complete service manual for every make and model.
- Product links may generate affiliate commissions, so storefront recommendations should be evaluated like any other sponsored or affiliate-linked suggestion.
Under the radar: Use the separate ETCG and ETCG1 sections to distinguish hands-on repair tutorials from broader shop talk, opinions, and behind-the-scenes updates.
