Car Basic Maintenance

Routine Checks

You've got the car; all the research and hard work should have paid off. It is important to now keep your car in 'tip top' shape and by doing these simple checks will keep your car running smoothly.

Basic maintenance is essential for keeping your car running how it should and can prevent incidents, such as breaking down because of low oil or no fuel, from occurring.

You should check the oil, water, battery, tyres and window screen washer fluid on a weekly basis. Every 3 months (seasonally) check the anti freeze and screen de-icer. If you intend on travelling long distances check the tyre pressures, water level, oil level, fuel level, hydraulic fluid levels, all lights and indicators are working, finally that the lights and windows screens are clean.
