If you want more information about your automobile, the best place to turn to is the owner's manual. Take note of maintenance procedures according to your car's mileage:
Whenever you reach 3000 miles, you need to change the engine's oil. As you do this, you need to change the filter. Other aspects to look into are the fluid, tires, air filter, hoses, and belts. You must examine the state of battery cables and terminals.
Maintain the rotation and balance of your car whenever you cover 5 to 10 miles. This will ensure that the tires won't wear out and its life span is extended. Take note, most especially, of the front tires for the right pressure.
Change air filter after running 15,000 miles for fuel efficiency. When your air filter is dirty, it will cause damage to the engine. As you do this, take time to also check your brake system.
Once you've reached 30,000 miles, check your transmission's fluid level. Consult your owner's manual for the right kind of fluid to use in your car. Use the manual for proper directions on how to properly drain and change fluid.
Upon reaching 50,000 miles, you need to change your car's coolant. Also, maintain your car's finish to ensure it remains in good condition. Constantly wash and apply wax onto your car as varied weather conditions could diminish the paint.
