Taking
care of your car is
essential to make it
live longer, to prevent it from going to the
mechanic and to make it
run as new, here are some easy
steps to follow:
1) Check the fluids of the car (engine oil, transmission oil, brake oil, power steering oil, coolant, washer) make sure that they are on the correct level and fresh.
2) Check the filters (Air filter, oil filter, AC filter, Cabin filter, fuel filter)
3) When you start your car, give it few minutes to warm up, don't drive straight away.
4) Check the tires , brake pads , brake discs.
5) Slow down on speed pumps.
6) Put the gear selector on (N) when you are at a traffic light
7) Use a high quality fuel, and stop mixing fuel types, choose one and keep using it.
8) Check the belts for any wear or tear (Serpentine belt, Timing belt)
9) Don't drive on low fuel level (So the dirt in the bottom of the fuel tank does not go to the fuel lines and injectors)
10) Don't turn the AC on high speeds, slow down then turn it on.
11) Wash your car, dirt and dust can damage your paint.
12) Use fuel injector cleaner on each oil change.
13) Make sure you have a spare tire and it's tools
14) Check your lights.
15) Check your spark plugs and wires
And thats it....if you do what I mentioned above, your car will love you and treat you good lol =D
Note: always refer to your
user manual, it helps a lot, I mean it, it has useful informations about your car.
