The purpose of a car service is to identify and address potential problems before they become major issues. It also helps to ensure that your car is operating efficiently, which can save you money on fuel costs.
Here are some of the common procedures included in a car service:
- Oil change and filter replacement: Engine oil deteriorates over time and loses its ability to lubricate the engine properly. Changing the oil and filter regularly helps to protect the engine from wear and tear.
- Air filter replacement: The air filter cleans the air that enters the engine. A clogged air filter can restrict airflow and reduce engine performance.
- Cabin air filter replacement: The cabin air filter cleans the air that enters the passenger compartment. A clogged cabin air filter can reduce airflow and lead to poor air quality inside the car.
- Spark plug replacement: Spark plugs ignite the air-fuel mixture in the engine cylinders. Worn-out spark plugs can cause engine misfires and reduce performance.
- Fluid level checks: This includes checking the engine oil, coolant, brake fluid, power steering fluid, and windshield washer fluid levels.
- Tyre pressure check and rotation: Regularly checking and adjusting tyre pressure can help to improve fuel efficiency, handling, and tyre life. Rotating your tyres helps to ensure even wear.
- Visual inspection: A mechanic will visually inspect your car for any signs of damage or wear and tear.
The specific procedures included in a car service will vary depending on the make and model of your car, as well as the mileage. However, the procedures mentioned above are some of the most common.
How often should you get your car serviced?
The frequency of car servicing depends on a number of factors, such as the make and model of your car, your driving habits, and the severity of the climate you live in. However, a general guideline is to get your car serviced every 6 months or 10,000 kilometers, whichever comes first.
Consulting your car’s owner’s manual is always the best way to determine the recommended service intervals for your specific vehicle.
Following a regular car servicing schedule can help to:
- Prevent major repairs and breakdowns
- Improve fuel efficiency
- Reduce emissions
- Increase the life of your car
- Maintain the safety of your vehicle
