Car maintenance reminders do not affect normal driving safety, and there is no specific mileage limit. Engine Oil and Oil Filter Replacement: This primarily involves maintenance of the lubrication system, whose main function is to effectively lubricate various components of the car's engine to prevent excessive wear. The oil filter removes various impurities from the engine oil to ensure the proper functioning of the lubrication system. The oil filter should be replaced along with the engine oil during maintenance. Under normal circumstances, a car requires maintenance every 5,000 kilometers. Air Filter Replacement: The air filter cleans the air before it enters the cylinders, removing impurities such as dust, sand, and other foreign particles. The cleaning and maintenance of the air filter depend on the usage environment. The gasoline filter is typically replaced after driving 20,000 to 25,000 kilometers. Spark Plug Replacement: Spark plugs are consumable parts and should be replaced every 20,000 kilometers. Additionally, components such as brake fluid, transmission fluid, the battery, throttle body, fuel injectors, and brake pads are part of the inspection items during routine maintenance, and their maintenance depends on usage conditions.
