  • Don't Ignore These 5 Warning Signs From Your Motorcycle

We buy a motorcycle and hope that it will ride well forever. But unfortunately that’s not the case, and at some point, our bike’s will have an issue. Ignoring these issues can cause bigger problems; problems that just might leave us without a ride (or at least with a very large repair bill). So what are the most important problems to look out for with your motorcycle?


Here are the top 5 warning signs from your motorcycle that you don’t want to ignore.

Warning Sign #1: You see rust

Rust may seem like just a cosmetic nuisance, but it is in fact much worse than that. Rust is caused when metal is exposed to moisture and oxygen, and since bikes are outside constantly, it isn’t an uncommon problem. But the problem is that rust spreads, and when it spreads it can seriously affect the performance and safety of your bike. These are just a few of the problems rust can cause. 

  • Rust in the gas tank can affect fuel flow, clog filters and fuel lines, and circulate in the engine causing damage.

  • Rust on a motorcycle chain can make the chain noisy and shorten its lifespan.

  • Rust on the body or frame can cause the bike to be structurally unsound.


Rust can spread not only in surface area, but can spread deeper into the metal, making the problem progressively worse and worse. So before the rust spreads too far, you want to nip the problem in the bud. When you notice rust, take the following actions to stop it from getting worse:

  1. Wash the rusted parts with a motorcycle cleaning gel and water to remove surface dirt. 

  2. Dry the washed areas with a clean cloth.

  3. Scrape rust off with an abrasive material, such as steel wool, then switch to sandpaper when most of the rust has been removed. (Try to avoid aggressive scrubbing)

  4. Apply chrome polish to finish removing small rust bits and scratches.

  5. Wax the chrome to prevent future rust.


Keeping an eye out for rust will not only keep your bike looking good, but it will keep it running more efficiently. 


Warning Sign #2: You notice a low MPG

If you are used to getting a certain mileage per gallon and notice a drop off, this can be a sign of a number of issues. An average motorcycle gets about 35-40 miles per gallon, but if you notice that you are suddenly getting under 30 mpg, you should try to figure out what the culprit might be. A loss of fuel efficiency could be caused by:

  • Low tire pressure

  • A leak in the fuel line

  • The brakes are too tight

  • Malfunctioning spark plugs

  • Other reasons


If you notice a loss of fuel efficiency, take the following steps to see if you notice any improvement.

  • Change your fluids–oil, transmission fluid, and coolant

  • Make sure you are using the recommended fuel

  • Replace your air filter

  • Clean out the fuel system

  • Clean and lubricate your chain

  • Inflate your tires


If none of these seem to be working, take your bike into a certified mechanic to make sure there is nothing more serious going on.


Warning Sign #3: You hear strange noises

You know your bike, and you know what it should sound like. If you start hearing noises that your bike typically doesn’t make, you don’t want to ignore it. Clinking, clattering, sputtering, and hissing can all indicate deeper issues with your bike. Here are some of the top strange noises and what they can mean.

  1. Grinding: A grinding noise cannot be ignored, as it most likely indicates a problem with braking. Replacing the brake pads is a likely fix, but if the noise continues be sure to get it looked at immediately.

  2. Hissing: This noise can indicate a few issues, and can be as simple as your tire leaking. If that’s not the culprit, it might be a blown gasket, radiator leak, or exhaust leak.

  3. Snapping: A snapping noise may signal an issue with the ignition. You may notice that the engine is hesitating if this is the issue.

  4. Kinking: Again, this noise can be a few different things, but it could mean a few things such as a corroded chain, kinks in the links, or misaligned sprockets.

  5. Ticking: A ticking sound could be from low oil levels, loose cam chains, valve train problems–any number of problems. If you cannot detect where the noise is specifically coming from, be sure to have your bike inspected.


Strange noises are not something to ignore, as they are one of the main indicators you have that there is a problem with your bike. 


Warning Sign #4: You notice poor braking

If you notice your brakes acting up when they are applied, be sure to get them looked at immediately. Depending on how they are acting, there are a few different things that could be the issue.


Loss of Brake Fluid

If you notice an above average loss of brake fluid, check your brake system to see where this loss might be coming from. The leaking could be coming from joints, the caliper, or the reservoir. Checking all of your connections can help you pinpoint where the issue is and prevent further brake fluid loss.


Brake Fade

When the brakes do not hold onto the wheels for a prolonged period of time it is known as brake fade. This can happen for a few different reasons:

  • Repeated intense application of the brakes

  • Brake fluid deteriorated

  • Poor contact between the brake lining and the drum


Replacing the brake fluid, reducing your speed and using lower gears, and correcting your braking habits can help with brake fade. 


Braking Juddering

If you hear a ringing noise in your brakes (a judder), it may be as simple as a wrong brake adjustment, which can be corrected. It could also be from the lining rivets being loose, in which case the rivets and liner will need to be replaced.


Brake Binding

Brake binding happens when the liner binds to the brake drum and remains there even after braking application stops. Replacing defective springs, lubricating the anchor pins, and ensuring the fluid levels are correct can all help to fix this issue.


Brake Overheating

Brake overheating can be a result of the same issues with brake binding, but could also be a result of prolonged brake overuse. Caliper seizing is another possible culprit. It’s important to remedy this as soon as possible to continue safe riding.


Grabbing Brakes

Grabbing, or seizing, brakes can occur for a few reasons, but they are usually easy to remedy.

  • The linings are greasy. Taking them apart and cleaning them will help fix this.

  • The shoes are adjusted incorrectly. Taking them off and reinstalling can fix this.

  • The brake drum is scoured. Regrounding the drum should help with grabbing.

  • There is dirt or dust on the brake shoe. Cleaning them thoroughly should help fix this.

  • The shoes are interchanged. If they were not installed correctly, brakes will seize. Reinstalling them correctly should help with this.


Brakes can have issues for a number of reasons, but it is important to find the underlying cause. Your brakes are arguably the most important system on your bike, so it is vital that they are working properly.


Warning Sign #5: You see oil sludge

If you ever see oil sludge on the outside of your engine, or notice it when you are changing the oil, do not ignore it. Oil sludge accumulates when oil isn’t changed often enough. As oil sits in the engine, it changes and becomes thick and clumpy. Engine sludge can block proper oil flow to parts of the engine, which in turn causes certain engine parts to retain excess heat. This can cause major engine damage over time.


If you notice any sludge, clean it from your engine as soon as possible. You can clean any visible spots by hand and purchase an auto sludge remover (found at most auto stores) to clean the inside of your engine. Take your bike to a mechanic if the sludge is extremely thick or difficult for you to remove. In the future be sure to change your oil and oil filter regularly and try to decrease the amount of stop and go driving you do. Frequently stopping and starting again will cause sludge to build up. Ignoring engine sludge can lead to costly repairs down the road, so be sure to take care of it as soon as you notice it.


Those are the five warning signs from your motorcycle that you shouldn’t ignore.


Taking care of your motorcycle will ensure that you have many more miles on the road together. Bikes that are properly maintained can last a long time, so don’t ignore any warning signs. And if you have a bike that is financed, there’s a good chance that you are overpaying on your monthly motorcycle payments.

Why not find ways to be productive with all that time? Here are some things you can pick up while you drive.1. Learn a LanguageThis is probably the most popular skill to tackle in the car. Whether you’re brushing up on a language you learned in high school, preparing for a trip, trying to improve your chances at a new job, or learning just to stay sharp, there are tons of good reasons to learn a language while you drive. And, yes, while you’ll also need to supplement with written lessons, you can work on your listening and speaking skills in the car.Depending on which language you want to learn and your level, you’ll need different resources, but here are a few ideas for ways to get started:Starting from 0: Listen to podcasts that teach you the basics (for example, Pimsleur and LanguagePod101 both have podcast-based language lessons)For skill building: Listen to programs designed for language learners (for example, News in Slow is designed for people currently learning at a beginner to intermediate level to practice listening comprehension) For advanced learners: Grow your vocabulary and get closer to fluency by listening to music or news in your target language and trying to capture any unfamiliar words, phrases, or ideas2. Listen to the Sounds of NatureIf you’re interested in the natural world, you could use the time to learn things like the calls of birds local to your area. Avid birders in particular might find this interesting – and there are many resources for birders, since it’s such a popular hobby (BirdNote Daily is a good option) – but resources exist for frog fans and other animal lovers as well, dependent on your region.

5 Things Every Car Owner Should Know

Let’s talk about five of the essential things every car owner should know.There are tons of skills you come by naturally as you start driving. Some things you learn for your drivers license exam, some skills you pick up as you start driving. But there are a few things not everyone knows how to do that can make you a better car owner and help you feel more confident on the road.These are some of the top skills you need to take time to learn once you own a car. Let’s take a closer look.Essential Skills for Drivers and Car OwnersTake a peek at the list. Do you know how to do all of these things? Most people will have learned at least some of these skills naturally, but taking time to really master them can help you drive safer and keep your car in great condition longer.1. How to Check and Change a TireIt’s important to get to know your tires, and recognize the right tire for your vehicle. But buying the right tires is only the beginning – tire maintenance and tire changing are super handy skills for every driver. The same is true for recognizing, checking, and changing or replacing fluids like engine coolant, brake fluid, windshield washing fluid, transmission fluid, and engine oil. If you see a liquid coming out of your vehicle, being able to recognize what fluid it most likely is and whether or not it constitutes a safety hazard is key.To get you started here are the essentials of changing a tire:Find somewhere safe to park on a level, firm surface.Turn on your hazard lights.Gather your tools: spare tire, car jack, lug wrench, and your owner’s manualReview any important information in the manual about tire changes for your specific vehicle Loosen but do not remove the lug nuts (which may be under the hub cap)Position the car jack at your vehicle’s jack points based on the instruction in the car owner’s manual (sometimes marked with a notch on the chassis)Slowly raise the car with the jackFinish loosening and remove the lug nuts, keeping them somewhere you can easily find them again where they can’t roll awayRemove the flat tire and replace it with the spare, lining the spare up with the wheel studsReplace the lug nuts and gently start screwing them in by handLower the car Use your lug wrench to tighten the lug nutsPut all your equipment back where you usually keep itCheck tire pressure for all tires (you may want to go to a garage to make sure everything’s good to go and your tire pressure is even)Return to the road, driving slowly and carefully if you’re driving on a donutPracticing changing your tire a few times at home can make it much less stressful if and when you need to change one on the road.2. How to Deep Clean Your Car YourselfWhile automatic car washes are handy and typically fairly affordable, deep cleaning and detailing your car can get expensive and time consuming. Knowing how to keep your car clean and how to handle stains and wear and tear on the inside and outside can improve your driving experience. After all, according to AAA, American drivers spent an average of 60.2 minutes behind the wheel every day as of 2022. Making that space clean and comfortable can help that hour of driving feel less stressful.Plus, deep cleaning your car yourself can save you money, and some people find it meditative!Speaking of saving money…Here’s one more thing every car owner should know how to do: lower their car payment quickly and hassle-free with Auto Approve!Get a free quote to see how much you could save.3. How to Read A Paper MapOnce a ubiquitous skill, knowing how to read a paper map is less and less common with the rise of GPS and digital map apps for the phone and in-car systems. However, it’s important that drivers of all ages master this skill and keep it sharp to be safe. You never know when you could lose service or battery power. Having a map in your glovebox and knowing how to read can help save headaches should you land in a tough spot. The last thing you want in the case of a breakdown is to add not knowing where you are to an already stressful situation.And reading a map isn’t all – all drivers should have on hand and know how to read their vehicle’s manual. You never want to be stranded somewhere trying to guess the meaning of an alert you’ve never seen before!While reading a map might not be absolutely essential when you’re staying close to home, it can come in handy if you want to plan a road trip – and even more so when you hit the road and venture into new areas further from home (and, depending on where you’re heading, further from robust network coverage!).4. How to Drive in Bad WeatherGiven shifting norms for how often we see major storms – and new types of storms hitting areas that once rarely saw, for example, snow storms or hurricanes – knowing how to drive, and when not to drive, in all kinds of weather is an absolute must.Driving in winter storms or heavy rain can mean different risks and challenges than, say, very strong winds or a heatwave. Prepare for all possibilities by brushing up on your driving skills and keeping an emergency kit in your truck.In general, when the weather is crazy and you’re on the road, slow down, leave extra space between you and the car in front of you, and remember that if you start to slide, the best thing to do is take your foot off the gas and gently steer the front of your car toward the direction you want it to go.5. How To Recognize Warning Signs from An Old CarLast but certainly not least, assuming you do everything right and your vehicle serves you well for over a decade, you’ll want to start keeping an eye out for signs of wear and tear that might mean a car is on its last legs. There’s a rule of thumb called the 30/60/90 rule in auto maintenance that suggests you should take your car in for servicing and preventative maintenance every 30,000 miles. This is true regardless of how long the vehicle’s been on the road and whether or not it’s showing any of the major old car warning signs. Preventative maintenance can help catch problems early and let you drive with confidence even after years with your vehicle. If everything’s looking good, you just need to keep an eye out for rusting, brake issues, bumping or bouncing, or a persistent check engine light. And One More Thing Every Car Owner Needs to Know…How to lower their car payment! Auto Approve can help you lower your vehicle payment in minutes.Most people are overpaying on their auto loanIf you got your vehicle from a dealership, there’s a good chance you’re overpaying on your auto loan, thanks to dealer markups on rates. Auto Approve can help you find out whether you’re eligible for a better rate and start paying less through refinancing. To get started, all you have to do is answer a few questions, no commitment required. Then, an Auto Approve associate can help you find the best deal for you. Once you choose your refinance, Auto Approve does the paperwork, making the process quick and easy!Get your free quote to see how much you could save today.

10 Sneaky, Simple Ways to Spend Less Money Every Day

Whether you’re saving up for a milestone purchase or just need to tighten up your budget, saving money is never a bad thing.But too often, when we think about ways to spend less, we think about major lifestyle changes. Unfortunately, studies suggest that if you feel like you’re depriving yourself, you may be more likely to slip and return to old spending habits. That’s why we’ve compiled this list of 10 easy ways to save money that don’t require sweeping changes. Of course, there are cases where small savings won’t be enough, but making money saving tricks like these a habit can help you keep your spending in check and put more in savings to weather financial emergencies throughout your life.Here Are 10 Easy Ways to Spend LessWhile not every option will work for everyone, with these tips you can save a few extra bucks for a nice dinner out this month – or hundreds or even thousands of dollars over the course of a year.1. Opt for lower cost optionsIf you want to save a little extra cash this month or curb your monthly spending, one of the easiest things you can do is switch to cheaper options wherever possible. This can be as small as switching tomato paste or pasta brands, where you might save only a few cents or dollars at a time, or bigger changes like opting for a less expensive restaurant for date night, thoughtfully selecting subscriptions to downgrade, or shopping at an outlet version of your favorite clothing store next time you need something. Comparison shopping to find the lowest price for something can even be thrilling when you find a great deal!While you might not notice small changes like these right away, that’s exactly why they’re so smart – over time, you’ll spend less on every purchase, without feeling like you’ve made a big change.2. Watch your spending closelyFor many people, a simple change that can make a difference is just spending more time paying attention to what they’re spending and where. That means logging into your bank account more often and looking at where your money is actually going. Most people can find areas to save money just by paying more attention.If you don’t already have a set budget, this is also a great opportunity to start creating categories and setting spending limits for how much you spend in a month. Basic budgeting is never a bad idea, and can make a huge difference if you’re struggling to save.3. Pick DIY over done-for-you where you canThis tip applies broadly – wherever you can save money by doing something yourself, do it! This can mean making your meals at home, bringing a water bottle instead of buying one, picking things up yourself instead of having them delivered, having a movie night in with popcorn and snacks instead of going to a theater, and so on.Incremental changes – like still getting takeaway, but ordering it in person instead of using an app – can save you money with minimal sacrifice. Small repetitive purchases we don’t spend time thinking about can be a huge money suck when added up.Of course, you might not be able to save up a home down payment by making your coffee at home, but being selective about every spending habit can help you splurge smarter.4. Lower your car costsOur favorite easy way to save money on autopilot? Refinancing your vehicle. Most people are paying more on their monthly car payment than they need to be, thanks to dealership markups. A refinance can mean a lower monthly payment, a lower rate, or both – putting more money back in your pocket for the things that matter most.Getting a quote is easy and takes just a few clicks, no commitment required.Find out how much you could save today.5. Set fun challenges for yourselfAnother sneaky way to save money without feeling like you’re saving money is to turn it into a game or challenge for yourself. You could try eating vegetarian for a week, or take out your treat budget in cash and see how far you can stretch it. Challenge yourself to cook recipes from a specific cookbook or to make meals out of what you already have in your freezer and pantry.As well as having money saving potential, giving yourself projects – like sanding and repainting a thrift shop bookshelf or learning to patch your own clothes – can help you build money-saving skills and keep you excited and interested in low cost activities. A lot of saving money is a mental game – if you can learn to actually enjoy and want to do and try less expensive things, you can make saving money a breeze.6. Become a food waste warriorAmericans waste tons of food each year. As well as being hard on the environment, it’s a big waste of money. The good news is, becoming more conscientious about food waste can also mean spending less on food.There are tons of great resources for people who want to master zero-waste cooking, and many companies that help connect food that might otherwise go to waste to people who want it at a discount. There are several companies that offer perfectly good fruits and vegetables that grocery stores won’t sell because they’re oddly shaped or too large or too small. There are apps where you can buy deeply discounted meals and baked goods from local eateries that have extras that won’t be sellable by the next day. Some might worry that they’re taking away food from people who need it, but statistically much of that food isn’t going to find someone who wants it before it goes bad. Buying bread from a bakery on discount at the end of the day is doing a favor to the people along the food chain who worked so hard to grow the wheat, ship the flour, bake the bread, who don’t want to see it end up in a landfill just because no one will want to buy it tomorrow.7. Join a buy nothing groupBuy nothing groups have become much more common in the last 5-10 years. They’re usually location-based, so you’d join one for your neighborhood or community, and can typically be found on social media.The idea of buy nothing groups is that, often, we only need things for a certain amount of time, and don’t use everything we have every day. If your neighbor needs an extra blender for a party, you might lend her yours for the day, rather than her going out and buying one. If you have a child who’s outgrown their old clothes, you might find another mom whose child is just growing into that size to give the clothes to. This is something people do naturally anyway with those they know – neighborhood groups just expand the circle of people you can ask and give.Doing this can prevent old clothes and electronics from ending up in landfills and help everyone spend less over time.8. Revisit old favoritesSometimes, you don’t need something new – you just need to dig into the back of a closet. Rereading a book you loved in college, shining an old pair of shoes, depilling an old jacket, plugging the InstaPot back in, digging out a board game you used to love can all be a boost. And old clothes can be mixed and matched to look in style again with a little creativity. Most of us have something in the house we’ve never touched or loved once but haven’t thought about in a long time. Dusting off whatever that is for you and falling in love with it again is a great way to feel like you’re changing things up without spending a penny!9. Throw time at big purchasesDespite being at number nine, this is one of the most important items on this list. Many of the things we’ve talked about focus on small purchases. When it comes to big purchases, this is the top tip for financial experts everywhere. If you want something that will be a big purchase for your budget, do all the research you want, and then wait a month and see how you feel. If you still want it in a month – and it’s worth the cost to you, and you can afford it – then you can decide to move forward with the purchase. For expensive non-essentials, this buffer time can help you avoid unnecessary impulse purchases and help you put the cost in perspective relative to your work and other expenses. 10. Save with coupons and pointsLast but certainly not least, one of the easiest ways to save without lifting a finger is to pay attention to coupons and sales, and time necessary purchases to ensure you get the best deal on them. Loyalty programs, points, sales, coupons – making them part of your spending plans can pay off royally. Most grocery stores and pharmacies have loyalty programs, and of course there are often sales around certain holidays, but you can get even more granular, choosing coffee shops with punch cards or downloading the apps for your favorite chains.Use These 10 Tips For Saving Money To Simplify Spending Less We’ve all heard the old adage, “a penny saved is a penny earned.” Some of these tricks might seem small, but add them up and you’ll be saving a pretty penny in no time.Start now by finding out how much you can save on your auto loanWhen you refinance your vehicle with Auto Approve, you get personalized help to make sure you find the best deal for you.
