It’s generally recommended to service your car every 6 months or every 5,000-7,000 miles, but this can vary based on your vehicle’s make, model, and usage.
A basic car service typically includes an oil change, oil filter replacement, fluid top-ups, tire pressure check, and inspection of key components like brakes, belts, and hoses.
Signs of brake wear include squealing or grinding noises, longer stopping distances, and a spongy brake pedal. It’s advisable to have your brakes inspected regularly by a professional.
When the check engine light illuminates, it indicates a potential issue with your vehicle’s engine or emissions system. It’s best to have the vehicle diagnosed by a mechanic to identify the problem.
Tire rotation is typically recommended every 5,000-7,000 miles or during every other oil change. This helps ensure even tire wear and prolongs tire life.
