What needs to be maintained during the second maintenance?
2 Answers
Vehicle second maintenance requires servicing the transmission, engine, body suspension, braking and steering systems, as well as tires. More information about the second maintenance of a car is as follows: 1. The second maintenance also includes inspections and maintenance of dozens of items across multiple systems such as the engine, transmission, air conditioning system, steering system, braking system, suspension, body, and tires. 2. During the second maintenance, car owners may consider replacing or cleaning the air and cabin air filters. The 4S shop will not require replacement, but considering today's driving environment factors, these maintenance items, which are not expensive and can bring noticeable improvements, can be done in advance. 3. The second maintenance of a car does not require unnecessary replacements and cleaning. For example, checking the coolant, brake fluid, tire pressure, etc., are generally free. Note here to remind all car owners: before the second maintenance, be sure to carefully review the maintenance list, and it is recommended not to perform unnecessary items.
I remember when I just had my car's second maintenance, it felt quite a hassle but very necessary. Last time my car had run about 10,000 kilometers, and the maintenance required checking the engine oil and oil filter—these are basics because poor engine lubrication can easily cause problems. The spark plugs also needed a look; if they were worn out, they had to be replaced, otherwise, the engine wouldn't start smoothly. Tire pressure and wear are crucial—I once had a flat tire due to low pressure, luckily it happened in the city. The braking system is another key point; the mechanic said regular checks can prevent brake failure. The cabin air filter and engine air filter are often overlooked—when dirty, they cause weird smells inside the car and affect health. The chassis inspection prevents loose screws, and the lighting test ensures safe night driving. Fluids like coolant and brake fluid also need checking—leaks can be troublesome. Overall, it cost a couple hundred bucks, but considering it extends the car's lifespan and saves on repair costs, it's worth it! After each drive, remember to clean the cabin dust to reduce the next maintenance cost.
