  1. Car maintenance: What is it and how often does it? How to maintain your car? Almost everyone knows that cars need minimal maintenance that involves changing certain elements: oil, brake pads, timing belt, etc. However, many times we overlook other mechanisms that also need to be checked and tuned every some time. We tell you the steps to follow to properly carry out the maintenance of the car and, thus, avoid breakdowns. Prevention is better than cure, says the saying. And so it is advisable to get your car checked with Best Mechanics Shop in La Habra, CA. Changing the timing belt, for example, is an operation that will take us several hundred dollars, but not doing so can cause a breakdown of thousands of dollars or, directly, having to send our car to scrap. The advice we are going to give you below are general: Ideally, you should review the instruction manual of your car or the maintenance manual which is also called a service book, where the plans will be specified and, sometimes, a "checklist" with the points that we have to review and how often we should do what. The first thing to know is that some components of your vehicle not only wear out with use: also over time, that's why periodic reviews of the car's maintenance plan are every 10,000 km or a year, for example. Even if you do not reach 10,000 km in a year, you must also inspect them. Filters: oil and more: Everyone knows that when changing the oil the filter must also be replaced. These filters fill up quickly because to increase their effectiveness they are electrostatically charged to trap dust, pollen, etc. They must be replaced every year. If you ever see the state in which they are usually found, you will understand the important work they do. In addition, a cabin filter in poor conditions can cause damage to the air conditioning system, bad odors, and increased energy consumption by reducing airflow.

Most of the brake fluids used in the car are composed of hydrophilic alcohol. This makes it absorb the water in the environment, which produces 2 very dangerous effects: Lower the boiling point, so it boils at a lower temperature and we can run out of brakes due to excessive heat lowering a port: the pedal becomes spongy and just stops the car. It is known as brake fluid fading. Get in touch with us and get the Best Price Wheel Alignment in La Habra CA.
