2 Answers
The maintenance items required for a car that has traveled 30,000 kilometers include changing the engine oil, oil filter, air filter, fuel filter, cleaning the throttle body, and replacing the spark plugs. Some 4S shops may recommend additional maintenance items, which car owners can consider and decide based on actual conditions. Below is expanded knowledge on car maintenance: 1. The main maintenance items for a car include changing the engine oil, oil filter, transmission fluid, spark plugs, cabin air filter, air filter, and brake fluid. However, not all these items need to be replaced during every maintenance session, as it depends on their service life. Additionally, beyond these, maintenance also 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. 2. Besides regular maintenance at 4S shops, it's also important to develop daily maintenance habits. Daily maintenance includes tasks before driving, during driving, and after parking. In fact, daily maintenance is quite simple and can be summarized as: cleaning, tightening, checking, and replenishing. Setting aside a little time each week for daily maintenance can keep the car in like-new condition while also helping you understand the technical condition of various parts of the vehicle, thereby avoiding mechanical failures and traffic accidents.
Sports car maintenance at 30,000 kilometers should never overlook safety. From my experience, first, change the engine oil and filter to protect the engine and reduce wear. Second, check the tires, including tread wear and air pressure, as improper conditions can lead to blowouts or misalignment. Third, inspect the braking system, such as brake pad thickness and brake fluid condition, to avoid brake failure. Fourth, pay attention to the cooling system and top up the coolant to prevent overheating. Fifth, clean or replace the air and cabin filters to improve air quality inside the car. With these basic maintenance tasks done properly, you can drive long distances with peace of mind, avoid breakdowns that disrupt your trip, and extend your beloved car's lifespan by two to three years.
