[DelMicah]

Maintenance is required even if driving less than 5,000 kilometers in a year. Below are relevant introductions about car maintenance: 1. Minor maintenance: Minor maintenance includes engine oil and oil filter, air filter, cabin air filter, wheel alignment, and tire pressure monitoring. During minor maintenance, it is important to note: When replacing engine oil, ensure that the remaining old oil is completely drained before adding new oil. 2. Major maintenance: Generally, a major maintenance is required every 40,000 to 50,000 kilometers. In addition to replacing the engine oil and three filters, major maintenance also includes replacing brake fluid, transmission fluid, timing belt, cleaning the engine throttle body and fuel injectors, cleaning the fuel system, replacing spark plugs, inspecting the ignition system such as ignition coils, and finally checking whether the tires need replacement and cleaning carbon deposits.
