  1. The Car Maintenance Schedule You must Follow Following a car maintenance schedule can assist avoid significant issues from developing. Furthermore, having a thorough car maintenance schedule will help raise the market value of your vehicle. Many manufacturers use a 30-60-90 schedule, which means that every 30,000, 60,000, and 90,000 miles, specific equipment must be inspected, updated, or replaced. If you're like most drivers, you're probably thinking if every suggested maintenance checkpoint in your automobile manual is actually important for your vehicle's health and well-being. Rubber gaskets and hoses, as well as windshield wiper blades and tyres, will all wear out at different times. Regular inspections of these "consumables" will be required, either by your technician or by you. This vehicle maintenance schedule discusses what you should do and why you should do it for everything else. Maintenance is performed on a regular basis. ●Filter for oil Engine oil and filters should be replaced on a regular basis because when an engine runs, microscopic particles of metal, dirt, and carbon end up in the oil, causing excessive wear on the engine. Non-synthetic oil had a 3,000-mile rule of thumb in the past, but most vehicles currently operate on synthetic, which can safely last between 5,000 and 10,000 miles between oil changes, depending on the kind. Remember to check the oil level in the engine on a regular basis as well. It should be done every two weeks and before any lengthy car journeys. ●Tires Check your car's tyres on a regular basis to ensure they are in excellent condition, look for adequate tread depth across the tyre and use a tyre pressure tester to verify they aren't under or over-inflated. Having the proper amount of air pressure in your tyres is not just good practice in terms of safety–it will also provide optimal rolling resistance, which will help you save money on gas. Tire rotation every 6,000-8,000 miles (or as recommended by your vehicle's owner's manual) can assist to equal outwear. Before 30,000 Miles, Car Maintenance Schedule ●Filter for air

  2. A blocked air filter makes it difficult for your engine to breathe, which can reduce performance. A reasonable rule of thumb is to change the air filter every 15,000 to 30,000 miles; if you park or drive in a dusty region, change the air filter closer to 15,000 miles. ●Filter for Fuel If your gasoline filter becomes clogged, your engine will perform poorly or not at all. Fuel filter manufacturer recommendations vary greatly, however, some advocate replacing your filter as early as 30,000 miles. Your best bet is to have your mechanic run a pressure test to evaluate the condition of your gasoline filter. Prior to 60,000 Miles, Maintenance ●Battery Extreme temperatures, age, and lengthy periods of inactivity can have an impact on batteries. Keep in mind that batteries are meant to run out and are warrantied and pro-rated by time rather than miles. Most batteries have a lifespan of four to five years, equating to 50,000 to 60,000 miles for the average motorist. If you don't remember when your vehicle battery was last replaced, you may get it checked to see how well it keeps a charge. At the same time, make sure the battery terminals are clean and free of corrosion. ●Brake Fluid Your brakes are activated by a hydraulic system. However, when the fluid in that system becomes polluted with water, its boiling point drops and it can convert to gas—which is compressible. As a result, the brake pedal becomes "squishy." To ensure that your brakes function properly, bleed your braking system of its fluid and replace it with new brake fluid as directed by your vehicle's owner's handbook. Most manufacturers recommend performing this service every 20,000 to 45,000 miles. ●Shoes/Brake Pads Brake pads and shoes are meant to wear out and often generate screaming noises when it's time to replace them. Check them on a regular basis. A decent pair of tyres may last for up to 50,000 kilometres.
