So we've compiled eight car care tips to prolong the life of your automobile. 2Fs [Fluids and Filters] Know how to change your car's oil and filter on a regular basis. Changing your air filter helps your car breathe easier and the engine last longer. Also, nothing will destroy an engine faster than neglecting oil-level checks or fresh-oil changes. ) Cooling System Maintaining your car's cooling system can potentially save you thousands of dollars in repairs. Flush the cooling system and change coolant once a year. Mix coolant and distilled water in equal proportions to keep the cooling system in good shape and prevent corrosion from building up. Keep it Cool! Paint Job your car in the shade to prevent interior/exterior damage by UV rays and protect your car's paint job. If you can't find a shaded area, then use a cover to minimize the Park sun's impact. Interior/Exterior Clean and vacuum the interior as needed. Washing your car keeps it clean, shiny and free from corrosion. Lubricate Everything with moving parts needs grease to survive. Drive-line components such as u-joints also require regular lubrication. Wax, wax, waх! Apply wax at least every six months. Nothing keeps paint looking good and protected like a coat of quality wax. 3Bs [Brakes, Belts, and Battery] Replace your braking system at least once a month to maintain maximum braking efficiency. Watch out for loose belts as they often make a loud squealing sound. Have them checked regularly for wear and tension. Battery needs to be checked once a month for corrosion and have it cleaned as needed. Tyres Use a tyre gauge to make sure they are properly inflated to the manufacturer's specified pressure. The best indicator to tell when to replace your tyres is when tread wear is showing between the treads. The simple step of keeping the tires up to proper pressure is valuable all the way around.
