Useful words for car problems? eg tracking.....
Is there a particular book for these words/phrases or alternatively could we use this thread to share some? I need the tracking checked but the chap in the tyre place said direccion which translates as steering & the dictionary version was something different & I've just found yet another word, siguimiento... Help!

Why don't you get Google to translate it?
eg: my car tracking requires alignment - mi seguimiento de coches requiere la alineaciĆ³n
translation.google.es
Not as personable as asking other members but quicker if you are in a hurry.

Problem is speed counts for nought if it makes no sense! It's translated "tracking" as the following of something or somebody, and not car tracking.

I saw one that someone had put up in good faith without reading right through and the Spanish original was "La Corrida de Cintas en Bicicleta de los lunes de Fiestas", and they had posted the google translation, " Cumshots tape and bicycle riding" Genuine!
