How to Determine When Your Car Needs Maintenance

[StMicah]

If your car exhibits symptoms such as sluggish acceleration, reduced air conditioning airflow, and difficulty starting, it indicates that maintenance is required. Here is relevant information about car maintenance: 1. First Maintenance: Some manufacturers set the first maintenance based on time or mileage. The exact timing should be referred to the vehicle's user manual or warranty manual. The first maintenance is crucial and free, so be sure to remember to do it to avoid missing it, which could affect the car's third maintenance. 2. Maintenance Items: Main car maintenance items include replacing engine oil, oil filters, transmission fluid, spark plugs, air conditioning filters, air filters, brake fluid, etc. However, not all items need to be replaced during every maintenance session; it depends on their service life. Additionally, maintenance involves the inspection and upkeep of dozens of items across multiple systems, including the engine, transmission, air conditioning system, steering system, braking system, suspension, body, and tires.
