Here’s what needs to be done to ensure your car runs better and lasts longer:
- Oil Change – every 3,000 miles or as recommended in your owner’s manual.
- Tire Rotation – every 6,000 miles. Proper rotation will prevent premature tire wear and save you money in the long run.
- Fuel Filter – replace your car’s fuel filter every 30,000 miles or as recommended in your owner’s manual.
- Transmission Fluid – change the fluid every 30,000 miles, and also make sure that the filter is replaced.
- Brake System – make sure your car’s brakes are inspected regularly. Replace worn brake shoes and rotor assemblies when recommended.
- Timing Belt – replace following the manufacturer’s timetable and recommendation. A broken timing belt can quickly cause major engine damage – and the cost to replace a timing belt is far less than the cost to replace the engine.
- Check Engine Light – when the “check engine” light is illuminated, bring your car in for inspection right away. Even if the car seems to run fine, it’s important to have the issue addressed to prevent more serious long-term problems.
