Affiliate and Advertising Disclosure
Last updated October 19, 2026.
FixOrPark explains OBD-II check engine codes in plain English. We may earn money when you use certain links or see ads. That never changes our fix-or-park ratings or repair advice.
Advertising
We apply Google AdSense (publisher id ca-pub-4272284578168772). Ads load only after you accept non-essential cookies in our consent banner. AdSense is free to join; Google pays publishers from advertiser spend. See our Privacy Policy.
Amazon Associates
FixOrPark is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program. We may earn a commission from qualifying Amazon purchases at no extra cost to you. Amazon Associates is free to join (no credit card required for standard enrollment).
Repair manuals (Haynes / Chilton)
Code and make pages include buttons to Haynes and Chilton storefronts. Those boxes are marked with an affiliate disclosure. Affiliate tracking tags are empty today — we have not invented partner IDs. Until a program is approved and a tag is added in our build config, the buttons are ordinary storefront links.
- Haynes partner / affiliate program: typically free to apply at the Haynes site; no card needed for a standard content partnership application.
- Chilton / Cengage affiliate paths: usually free to apply; confirm current terms on the publisher site. No card needed unless a network charges a paid marketplace fee (we will not enroll in paid-only networks without Joseph entering a card).
Parts and tools (future)
We may later add RockAuto, Amazon parts, or similar boxes. Programs that are free to join will be applied by the site bot. Only programs that require a paid signup fee or a credit card on file need Joseph.
What we will not do
- Invent or guess affiliate tags.
- Cloak links or hide that a link is sponsored.
- Change a severity rating to sell a part.
