What Are The Best Things to Keep A Car in Good Shape?
Key Highlights
  • Tips to keep your car in good shape.
  • Take regular check-ups on your car.
  • Regular maintenance can prevent expensive repairs.

Tips to Keep Your Car in Good Shape:

  1. Change Engine Oil at Regular Intervals:

Your car engine needs engine oil to work smoothly; if not provided at the right time, it could cause wear and tear in your engine. Take a dipstick test to know if the engine oil level is low or not, and if it is, get it refilled. If your engine is lubricated properly, the friction inside it would be less, and as a result, the wear and tear would be minimised.

  1. Condition of the Tyres:

The tyres of your car wear out after a time. The treads indicate if the tyre needs to be replaced or not. You need to keep a check when you need to buy new sets of tyres. You must also check if your tyres are appropriately inflated according to the pressure recommendations of the manufacturer. Check the pressure of the tyre every morning before you begin to drive.

  1. Take Care of Brakes, Battery and Belt

Besides the engine, brakes, battery and belt are vital components of a car. No person would want to be in a situation in which the car is running at high speeds, and suddenly the brake begins to malfunction. It is necessary to get your brakes checked at regular intervals. You must also need to check the battery because it helps your engine to start. Make sure it is charged, and the distilled water level is fine.

  1. Take a Look at Heed Warning:

These warnings are crucial and tell that something might be wrong with the car. If the warning light lights up, then, it may be time to see your mechanic. You must also be aware of the owner's manual because you cannot rely on the mechanic only. It is best that you do not delay the repairs otherwise, it may turn into costly damage.

  1. Take a Look at the Fluids:

Your car needs many fluids to run efficiently, if you fail to provide the fluids, it could cause breakdowns. Fluids such as power steering fluid, coolant, brake oil, wiper fluid, etc., need to be checked regularly and to be refilled when needed. If your brakes do not have proper oil levels, it can cause trouble in braking.

  1. Check the Headlight and Windows:

You must make sure that your headlights and windowpanes are working properly at all times. If your headlight is not working properly, then it would be difficult for you to drive in the dark, and it could cause an accident as well. Likewise, your window panes must also be working properly; otherwise, you may face problems like a stuck window during the rain.
