If you want to take care of your car, it is advisable to service it around two times a year (assuming ordinary use). This is very important as it makes sure that the vehicle is in good condition and all the components are in fine condition. Vehicle maintenance goes for both used and new cars and must be accomplished at consistent times. Each vehicle has slightly different periods, however usually it should be around every 12,000 miles or Six months. You may use a local garage if you opt for leaving it to a specialist, or basic maintenance is possible by most home mechanics. Using a garage will cost more, however providing you know and have confidence in the person, it can be your best option. Personally, I quite appreciate maintaining my very own vehicle. It's worth keeping in mind that if you purchase a car or truck from a dealer, they will often service it first, and give you the appropriate service routine for the vehicle. In no way following this could potentially cause damage to your automobile, and could even mean that any warrenty will not be honoured by the manufacturer.

%LINK1%Vehicle maintenance can also be vital when you want to sell your car due to the fact prospective buyers can ask to see the car's service background before they buy it. This can be so they do not find themselves finding cash for repairs that would otherwise have already been done by the original owner. Failing to do this, can lead to getting a selling price much lower than you hoped, or not selling it at all.

For anyone who is doing the task on your own, you might need a list of things to take care of.%LINK2% Below is a number of the more essential items to maintain:

Tyres

These should always be a number one point. Impacting on both safety and fuel economy, proper pressure should be maintained at all times. This should be an item that is checked by the car owner on a weekly basis. Tread ought to be examined for wear (1.6mm in the bare minimum in the UK), and the sidewalls examined for bruises in addition to scuffs. The spare also needs to be checked for correct inflation and roadworthy condition.

Oil

Essential for the smooth working of the vehicle. Without this, the engine could seize resulting in a very pricey repair bill. In addition to changing the oil, you should also fit a new oil filter.

Battery

The battery should never be left until it is about to fail. Its much better to replace it a little prematurely than to be left stranded on the road or be unable to leave home in an emergency. Be aware of any change in its efficiency and have it inspected right away if it seems to have problems starting the engine. At the end of the day, batterys are fairly low priced to replace.

Brakes

Brakes are an item the driver can examine by listening for a change in the noise of them when coming to a stop. Also, the feel in the brake pedal would be one of the first things to change if there was a leak, or air caught inside the system. This may result in the pedal feeling a little soft or spongy. They must always be on the list for inspection during maintenance however being aware of changes in how they sound and feel can advise the driver to their need for immediate attention.

Engine Coolant

Cooling liquids, and the radiator system, must also be on the schedule to be checked out. It is best if liquids are replaced regularly. Also, a visual inspection of hoses and belts should be performed when servicing the car. %LINK3% It's a easy check, and if you see cracks or weak areas then it's a lot cheaper to replace than being left behind and towed back to a garage.
