What maintenance is needed when a car reaches 60,000 kilometers?

[CorbinLynn]

Here are the maintenance items required when a car reaches 60,000 kilometers: 1. Change the engine oil, oil filter, air conditioning filter, and air filter. Check the clogging condition of the car itself—if it's not clogged, replacement may not be necessary. 2. Replace the spark plugs. For normal cars, the lifespan of spark plugs is 30,000 kilometers, while platinum ones last longer, typically between 60,000 to 80,000 kilometers. For naturally aspirated engines, the original spark plugs are generally recommended for replacement at 60,000 kilometers. 3. Change the transmission fluid. Manual transmission fluid should be replaced at 60,000 kilometers, while automatic transmission fluid should be replaced between 60,000 to 80,000 kilometers. If driving in major cities, the replacement interval may need to be advanced. 4. Replace the brake fluid. Brake fluid tends to absorb moisture easily. If the moisture absorption rate exceeds 2%, braking performance may be compromised, leading to potential brake failure. It's advisable to have this checked professionally—if within the normal range, replacement may not be necessary. 5. Replace the tires. The aging period for tires is typically five years, roughly equivalent to 70,000 kilometers. Therefore, at 60,000 kilometers, it's essential to check whether the tires have worn down to the safety line. If significant wear is observed, tire replacement is necessary.
