1 Answers
Regular maintenance items for a car at 20,000 kilometers include changing the engine oil, oil filter, air filter, cabin air filter, spark plugs, etc. Below is extended information about car maintenance at 20,000 kilometers: 1. Changing the engine oil and oil filter is essential: Due to the harsh conditions of high temperature and pressure inside the engine, the shelf life of engine oil is significantly shortened, and its performance greatly declines. Over time, it fails to protect the engine. The oil filter prevents impurities from mixing into the oil, which can cause oxidation, leading to the formation of sludge and clogging the oil passages. Therefore, both the engine oil and oil filter should be replaced simultaneously. 2. If the air filter and cabin air filter were not replaced during the 10,000-kilometer maintenance, they must be replaced at the 20,000-kilometer service. 3. If the car uses standard material spark plugs, preparations should be made to replace them at 20,000 kilometers.
