Many people treat cars as "brothers made of iron" — just run and light them up. It was not until one day when an inexplicable yellow light appeared on the dashboard, or the high-speed steering wheel began to shake, that the original car would be “sick”。
Car maintenance is not that good. Remember a few core logics and you can avoid 80% of the pit。
The oil is not always enough
The oil is engine blood. It is responsible for lubrication, cooling, cleaning — whatever is missing, the inside of the engine is like dry metal, which is overhauled for a long time。
Car support proposal:
There's a little trick: take a look at it once a month. The oil table is normal between the two scales; if the hair is black as ink, it feels like particles, it should be changed。
Tires are your only contact with the ground
The attitude of many people to tyres is that it doesn't matter if it doesn't leak. This is the most dangerous area of error。
There are three key points for tyres:
Do not be overserved
Each time you go to maintenance, the store always advises you to change the air filter. Want to change
Brakes and cylinders are a simple, simple maintenance rhythm of two "keys of silence."
Every 5,000 kilometres: a glance at the caliber, tire pressure, various lights
For every 10,000 km or one year: refuelling, checking air cores, brakes snippets
Biennial: consideration of brake oils, anti-freeze fluids (appropriate southern extension)
Per 40,000 km: inspection of spark plugs, transformer tank oil (see vehicle type)
And finally, remember, the car doesn't suddenly break, it's just being ignored. The vast majority of the warning lights on the dashboard are the last warning to you before the problem becomes irreversible。
It takes ten minutes to get to know your car, and it'll pay you back in 10 years。
