Car maintenance is very important. A little carelessness will not only cause unnecessary damage to the vehicle, but also endanger the driving safety. If the car is not used for a lot of time and the mileage is not far, is it necessary to maintain it?


There are two main types of car maintenance: the first is basic maintenance, and the second is deep maintenance.


1. Basic maintenance.


(1) Oil.


Oil is very important to the engine and must be replaced on time, according to requirements and according to quality. But everyone is familiar with oil, so don't worry. It is okay to follow the standards of the user manual.


Generally speaking, the frequency of replacement of different brands of engines is different. For example, most of the independent brands have 5000/7500 km or half a year to replace the oil, and the joint venture brand also has 10,000 km or once a year.


If you used semi-synthetic oil before, and now switch to full synthetic oil, you should replace it according to the maintenance cycle of full synthetic oil.


(2) Machine filter.


Air filter: The function of the air filter is to filter out dust and particulate matter in the air to ensure that enough clean air enters the cylinder.


Gasoline filter: The function of the gasoline filter is to provide clean fuel for the engine and filter out the moisture and impurities in the gasoline.


(3) Glass of water.


In winter, in order to prevent the glass water from freezing, it is necessary to replace the winter glass water.


(4) Antifreeze.


The best replacement cycle for antifreeze is about 2 years.


(5) Brake fluid.


Brake fluid needs to be replaced every 40,000 to 50,000 kilometers or every two years.


2. Deep maintenance.


(1) Appearance maintenance.


Inspect air-exposed car parts, such as car shells and paint, for damage that could affect the quality of the car shell. And whether the tires are safe, whether the headlights are damaged, whether they can be used normally, etc.


(2) Inspection inside the car.


Keeping the car clean and tidy is the most important thing.


(3) Underbody.


The car chassis carries the weight of the entire body, and various auto parts are also designed directly on the chassis, which can intuitively reflect the overall performance of the car. Car chassis maintenance is very important.


(4) Engine.


Check the engine from time to time for maintenance.


Maintenance of the car is very necessary, but also for safety reasons.
