New cars are becoming less enjoyable to work on, less rewarding to drive, and increasingly frustrating to repair.
Older cars are becoming ever more difficult to maintain and restore, as knowledge fades and the quality of replacement parts continues to decline.
Mechanics are being paid less and less for increasingly demanding work, while independent workshops struggle with bloated dealer-specific tools and increasingly restricted access to documentation.

We are building a community of passionate car enthusiasts, mechanics, and DIYers who are dedicated to sharing their knowledge and expertise with others. Whether you're a seasoned pro or just starting out, there's a warm seat ready for you.

Start Wrenching aims to:

• reverse the decline of enthusiast forums and communities •
• organize knowledge scattered across the internet in a way that is easy to access, search and understand •
• connect amateurs with professionals •
• extend right to repair beyond expensive TSB and dealer sites •
• reduce importance of volatile, ad-ridden and distracting social media in our professional lives •
• give professionals additional source of income •
• give amateurs access to professionals around the world •
• honest, authentic, relatable, repeatable - made by real mechanics for the real world •

Join the fast growing community today and be a part of exciting project which will change the way we think about car maintenance and repair.

Being with us on the start gives you not only huge voting power on the direction of the project, but also simple message that you agree with our mission that our industry needs a reboot.

Join The Community Here
(it is and stays free)

If you are a skilled mechanic, diagnostician, auto electrician or even a teacher, chances are you are already very busy. Maybe you are already retired, but still want to be part of the community which was part of your whole life.
Your expertise is needed far beyond that as well - by people around the world who may not have access to good mechanics in their area, or who simply want to learn from you and get help with their own projects.
