I've been driving a family car for many years, and regular maintenance mainly involves replacing a few key components to keep the car running smoothly. Engine oil is the most fundamental—it needs to be changed every 5,000 to 10,000 kilometers; otherwise, the engine will accumulate carbon deposits and suffer significant wear. The oil filter should be replaced at the same time to filter out impurities and prevent clogging. The air filter is also important, especially in dusty urban environments—replacing it every 10,000 kilometers ensures smooth airflow. Brake pads must be replaced once worn, especially since I often drive my kids around—braking responsiveness is crucial. Tires should be checked for tread depth and aging, and replaced every two years or so to prevent blowout risks. Spark plugs should be changed every 20,000 kilometers to maintain ignition efficiency and save a bit of fuel. Coolant and transmission fluid should be replaced periodically to prevent overheating in summer and freezing cracks in winter. Following these simple steps on schedule ensures safer and more worry-free driving.

Can I Install a Rearview Camera on My Car by Myself?

A rearview camera can be installed by yourself as long as you have an LCD screen. However, attention must be paid to the wiring process, such as properly securing the connections with waterproof tape, hiding the video cables, and correctly handling the main unit's wiring. Relatively speaking, installing a rearview camera requires removing some interior panels for wiring, etc. Without some basic automotive knowledge, it is not recommended to install the rearview camera yourself. You can visit an auto beauty shop or accessory store and pay a small labor fee to have a professional install it. More relevant information is as follows: 1. Generally, the wiring for a rearview camera is relatively simple. You can directly plug it in according to the interface. The rearview camera wiring harness includes the display screen connection wire, reverse control wire (positive), and reverse light wiring harness (positive and negative). The reverse control wire is usually red and connects to the reverse light's positive and negative terminals to obtain the reverse gear signal, automatically switching to the rearview camera image when shifting into reverse. 2. Some cameras come with reverse lights. Simply ground the negative terminal and connect the positive terminal to the reverse light. After wiring, you can choose to fix the rearview camera. The most common method is to replace and fix it in the original license plate light position, achieving a damage-free installation while also obtaining a good field of view. It is important to note that when purchasing a rearview camera, remember to buy a license plate bracket light holder; otherwise, the camera cannot be securely installed.

How Often Should the Fuel Filter Be Replaced?

Fuel filters should be replaced every 40,000 kilometers. There are two types of fuel filters in cars: built-in and external. They are installed in the fuel line near the fuel tank to filter impurities from the gasoline. If the gasoline contains a high level of fuel impurities, it increases the likelihood of the fuel filter becoming clogged. The fuel filter in cars is a paper filter element enclosed in a hard plastic shell. When the fuel filter becomes clogged, the resistance increases, which can impede fuel flow and affect engine performance, leading to reduced power. It is recommended to replace the fuel filter at a 4S shop, as they use original parts provided by the car manufacturer.
