Car maintenance items include: 1. Oil and oil filter replacement. 2. Air filter. 3. Fuel filter. 4. Transmission fluid. 5. Tire maintenance. The following is relevant information: Major maintenance is based on regular maintenance, in addition to replacing the oil and oil filter, the air filter and fuel filter also need to be replaced. Major maintenance and regular maintenance can be alternated, with the interval varying by car brand, specific to the car manufacturer's recommendation. Engine oil is the lubricant for the engine, to ensure the car's performance, the oil should be replaced periodically, and its replacement cycle depends on the oil's effective time.
For car maintenance, I generally follow the recommendations in the owner's manual. Regularly changing the engine oil and oil filter is the most basic step. I do this every 5,000 kilometers or so to keep the engine running smoothly. It's also important to check the braking system, including the thickness of the brake pads and the condition of the brake fluid. Last time, my brakes were making strange noises, and it turned out the wear was severe. After timely replacement, driving became much more reassuring. Additionally, I have the mechanic check the tire pressure and tread wear, and rotate the tires to ensure even wear and extend their lifespan. The air filter and cabin air filter are also replaced frequently to avoid unpleasant odors when using the air conditioning. The coolant and battery condition should also be inspected to prevent breakdowns on the road. In short, developing a habit of regular maintenance can prevent small issues from turning into big problems, saving both money and hassle. I recommend everyone schedule maintenance based on mileage or time intervals, rather than waiting until a breakdown occurs and regretting it.
