How to take care of your car

Maintaining your car’s health



Maintaining your car need not be an expensive affair. These simple tips will ensure that your car never takes ill.

Preventive maintenance
Prevention is better than cure is an oft repeated statement and it holds true when it comes to your car as well. So, the minute you spot an oil leak, you must take it to the nearest garage and get it repaired immediately.

Change the oil
Your engine oil is your car’s blood and you must replace it every 5000 miles to ensure that your engine is functioning smoothly. Changing the oil at regular intervals can prevent buildup of harmful deposits.

Use genuine parts
Cheap knockoffs of automobile parts, though easily available, are prone to breaking down sooner and their poor quality may end up damaging the other parts of your car.

Yearly check up
Check the car manual for recommended 'service interval'. This will tell you when your baby is due for a spa nee garage day!
