Either the car<br \/>\nperforms slightly below the previous manners or it performs totally awful or perhaps in worst cases<br \/>\nstalled and rotting in a junkyard. That will depend only on one thing, maintenance!<\/p>\n<p>Talking about car maintenance, do you have any idea of what an extended warranty is and it is worth<br \/>\npurchasing.

What they do<br \/>\nis get into place once the factory warranty expires. Thereafter, any surprise or unprecedented event<br \/>\noccurs that renders your car faulty, all the expenses are sorted by the extended warranty provider. What<br \/>\ndo you get in return?

Car maintenance has been a practice that has been in existence ever since the first car or<br \/>\nautomobile was made in this world. However, things have changed on how it is done, and here are 10<br \/>\nthings you might be missing about car maintenance in 2022.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin-top: 20px;\">Knowledge about dashboard warning signs is necessary<\/h3>\n<p>Warning signs behind the steering wheels are less understood by several car owners. Aside from the<br \/>\nodometer and the fuel gauge, other signs are completely strange and new to some. These signs are very<br \/>\nimportant in alerting you if your car has fallen into trouble. Having information of what they entail,<br \/>\ninterpreting them, and eventually acting is key to a car&#39;s maintenance. Below are warning lights you<br \/>\nmight be having zero clue about;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Coolant warning- This warning light needs to be acted on immediately. It happens a lot<br \/>\nespecially when you have been driving for long. Pull up by the roadside and open the hood until<br \/>\nthe engine colls downs. Ignorance is the number one engine killer.<\/li>\n<li>Electrical fault light- This warning light means that your car&#8217;s electrical components might be<br \/>\nrunning shorts or rather faulty and need replacement.<\/li>\n<li>ABS warning light- It is related to the braking system and is signified issues with the anti-lock<br \/>\nbraking system. It works almost similar to the brake warning lights.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 style=\"margin-top: 20px;\">Change oil the first 50-100 miles in brand new cars<\/h3>\n<p>Oil is the blood of an engine and plays a very crucial role making it a MUST in any sort of machinery.<br \/>\nFrom cooling the engine and cleaning the engine, the oil needs to be there and in the right amounts.<br \/>\nSince oil quality depreciates over time, do not wait until the recommended period reaches especially if it<br \/>\nis your first time changing oil. This is recommended for brand new cars in most cases.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin-top: 20px;\">Frequent thread depth check is key<\/h3>\n<p>It is wise to check on your tire&#39;s tread depth from time to time. Thread depth ensures your tires have<br \/>\nmaximum grip on to the surface and enforce traction as well.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin-top: 20px;\">Tire rotation<\/h3>\n<p>After every 5,000 miles to 8,000 miles, you are required to do the entire wheel rotation. Doing so<br \/>\nensures all the tires wear evenly.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin-top: 20px;\">Check on the spare tire as well<\/h3>\n<p>Many folks certainly never bother looking at their spare tires at all. You might be frustrated when you<br \/>\ncome across a bust and the spare cant help. Do a check once in s while to ensure your spare wheel is<br \/>\nalive and kicking.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin-top: 20px;\">Perform tune-up on regular basis<\/h3>\n<p>If you notice your car is unresponsive, sluggish, and slow, then your might consider doing a tune-up.<br \/>\nMost cars that are beyond the 60,000 mils mark face this problem a lot. It is all about checking on the air<br \/>\nfilters, spark plugs, fuel injection system, ignition wires, and the oil filter and cleaning or replacing them.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin-top: 20px;\">Flash off the brake fluid<\/h3>\n<p>Brake fluid usually baits water and performance goes down drastically. Water is also an agent of<br \/>\ncorrosion. After running for about 25,000 miles, it is wise to flash the entire brake fluid and fill in fresh<br \/>\nand clean fluid.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin-top: 20px;\">Check on every fluid<\/h3>\n<p>Apart from engine oil, a car is made up of many other fluids. We\u2019ve got the; Brake fluid, Windshield-<br \/>\nwasher fluid, Air conditioning coolant, Power steering fluid, and transmission fluid. Check on them and<br \/>\nensure they are in the right amounts and working.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin-top: 20px;\">Apply interior protective creams<\/h3>\n<p>To see your interior sparkle and shine as if new, ensure you apply protective creams to the surfaces. Sun<br \/>\nexposure and heat make some parts look dry with cracks.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin-top: 20px;\">Wax twice a year<\/h3>\n<p>Waxing is usually underrated and ignored a lot. However, to maintain that attractive look, waxing<br \/>\nremains to be the option. Waxing also shields your car from UV rays that might peel off your paint or so.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin-top: 20px;\">Conclusion<\/h3>\n<p>If you are a true car enthusiast and want to see your car drive and feel as new a longer span, then<br \/>\nmaintenance remains to be the sole remedy.
