2 Answers
Matters that should be paid attention to in car maintenance are: 1. Make an appointment in advance; 2. Record any faults or questions encountered while driving and inform the staff during maintenance registration. The maintenance content includes: 1. Check whether the tire pressure is normal and whether there is uneven wear, bulging, or damage on the tires; 2. Inspect the car chassis, including brake pads, brake discs, connecting rods, ball joints, and CV joints for any scratches; 3. Replace the engine oil and oil filter, clean the air filter, and check whether the generator belt and wiper blades are damaged; 4. Check whether the levels of various fluids are normal; 5. Inspect all switches and lights in the car to ensure they are working properly.
I have quite some experience in car maintenance after years of driving. The key points include regular oil and filter changes, done approximately every 5,000 kilometers to keep the engine lubricated and running smoothly; checking tire pressure and wear, as imbalance can increase fuel consumption and affect safety; frequently inspecting the brake system, replacing pads and discs when worn; not neglecting coolant and antifreeze, as overheating is common in hot weather and freezing in cold; spark plugs aging can lead to insufficient power; also battery maintenance, cleaning terminals to prevent corrosion; paying attention to body scratches and paint protection during each car wash; not overlooking daily habits like avoiding sudden braking and acceleration to reduce wear; actually, the maintenance manual is a treasure trove, following it prevents major issues, saving money and hassle. Treat your car like an old friend that needs regular care.
