• Tires
• The contact point between your vehicle and the road, tires are absolutely easy to take care of. Get a tire pressure gauge and check your pressure every month. A properly pressurized set of tires will save a lot of fuel during their life span. When the weather gets cold tire pressure will drop roughly one pound with every 10 degree decrease in temperature. There are many videos on how to check your tire treads and you should have a look at a few of those as it is a strictly visual process. If you do need a change, do not forget to ask your auto maintenance professional on rotating your tires which will help make the most use out of your money.
• Fluids
• About every month you should be popping your hood open and do a quick check on your fluid levels. Oil and coolant levels are most integral in automobile maintenance, and your manual will have the info you need to perform these simple tasks. Don’t forget your windshield wiper fluid, it is very dangerous to lose visibility when you need it most.
• Belts and Hoses
• Take a look at your engine bay once every few weeks as a habit. Make sure to notice any wear and tear in your timing belt as it can be very dangerous and damaging to lose one during a drive. Keep an eye out for those hoses that lead your fluids in and out of the engine. Over time, changes in temperature and driving conditions will wear down these lifelines. Cracks, bulge and leaks warrants a visit to your automobile maintenance professional right away.
• Engine Oil and Filters
• There should be a recommended distance and/or timeframe until your next scheduled oil change. It is standard practice for every auto maintenance service provider to go through their check list of essential items and engine oil as well as the oil filter is among them. The oil keeps your engine lubricated, reduce the friction from the moving parts while the oil filter keeps contaminants out. Get these looked at before the distance or the timeframe, some things just aren’t worth extending usage life out of and they are usually anything that helps your car’s core components running.
