If you want your car to last for years, you need to follow a car maintenance schedule. Maintaining your vehicle could keep it on the road for 200,000 miles or more, saving you a great deal of money. Follow this car maintenance checklist to get the most out of your vehicle. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Your owner’s manual includes everything from an oil change schedule to when you need to replace the timing belt. Each vehicle is unique, so read the manual so you can create a plan for your car. Then follow that schedule closely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Your tires are an essential part of basic car maintenance. Check your tire pressure at least once a month. If your tire pressure is low, inflate them to the recommended levels. Also, rotate your tires as needed. Typically, every 5,000-10,000 miles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Your owner’s manual will state how often you should change the oil. If you are handy, you can change your oil yourself. Make sure you drain and dispose of the old oil property, though. Many people prefer to take it to an oil change center or even the dealership to get this done since its relatively inexpensive. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
