How Often Should a Car Be Serviced for Optimal Maintenance?
1 Answers
Most cars require servicing every 8,000 to 10,000 kilometers, while some models may need maintenance every 5,000 kilometers. Based on the average annual mileage of 20,000 kilometers for family cars, it is recommended to service your vehicle every 5 to 6 months, with a minimum of two maintenance sessions per year. Below is relevant information about car maintenance: 1. Car maintenance refers to the preventive work of regularly inspecting, cleaning, replenishing, lubricating, adjusting, or replacing certain parts of the vehicle. 2. Car maintenance is divided into major and minor services. Minor maintenance primarily involves replacing the engine oil and oil filter, while major maintenance includes replacing components such as the engine oil filter, air filter, cabin air filter, etc. The replacement intervals for parts like spark plugs, brake fluid, and transmission fluid are not fixed and should be referenced against the vehicle's maintenance manual.
