Check your Car!
To get a convenient vehicle and comfortable drive, car should always be treated continuously. Like humans, machines also require maintenance and regular checks to be addressed if any part is damaged or needs repairs. General check up on the car should be done every two or three months, both for the car that had not been used or after a long journey. Some general vehicle inspection steps:
- Exterior and Interior
Clean the exterior and interior vehicle from dirt, because if it sticked too long, the dirt would harden and lead paint on the car look dull and flawed. While on the interior, which is not immediately cleaned dirt would cause odor. - Tire
Do not forget to check tire condition and pressure of the wind flower. - Water
Always check the condition of battery water, water radiator, wiper and washer water. Add if the amount is below the minimum threshold. - Oil
Also check the volume and quality of oil on the engine, gearbox, axle, power steering, brake and clutch. - Engine
If the engine power was reduced or even have voices that arise on the part of the engine, it just means you have to start checking the condition of the vehicle engine to the workshop. - Drive components
Check also various drive components, such as couplings, gears, coupling, axle, axles, wheel bearings, including the wheels. Make sure the driving component is moving normally. - Lights
Make sure all vehicle lights from the headlights, taillights and brake lights, lights up perfectly.
