Hello

I have a motorcycle that needs a little tune up or at least an engine check. So I am not drivng a death trap.

Big problem is that I don't know how to explain to the mechanic that I want more then an oil change.

I asked my coworker to help but she doesn't know the terms. Help would be greatly appreciated.

tune up-
idoling-
engine-
tires-
gears-
suspension-
battery-

Thanks

Some of those terms are too difficult for me. You could say,

엔진, 브레이크 등 전체적으로 검사해주세요. (The engine, break etc, please check everything)

I can help you by reassuring you that "tire" and "battery" are the same in Korean. You might be having trouble with "idoling" because it should be "idling."
