Car repair and maintenance services can be expensive!

You can still save big money on your car repairs with handy car maintenance tips. All you need to do is follow these simple tips:

TIPS TO SAVE MONEY WITH EASY CAR MAINTENANCE TIPS

  1. ALWAYS KEEP YOUR FUEL ABOVE ¼ TANK

If you constantly run your car at fuel, below a quarter of the tank, you run the risk of damaging your electric fuel pump inside your car. That’s $350 to $900 going down the drain for no reason. Actually, the electric fuel pump in your tank pumps the fuel in your engine and during the process uses the fuel to keep itself cool too. So when it goes below a quarter, there isn’t sufficient fuel to keep the pump cool which if it happens often, can burn the fuel pump prematurely. 

  1. PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE & LOG BOOK SERVICING

Log Book Servicing Regular preventive check-ups help to keep your car in best shape. This way, you don’t ignore warning signs or potential large repairs and solve them well before they escalate. Broadly speaking, the cost of preventive repairs is significantly less compared to the cost associated with unexpected car breakdown or expensive large repair bills.

  1. CHANGE ENGINE OIL REGULARLY

CHANGE ENGINE OIL REGULARLY

One of the most important parts of your car but the easiest to neglect! Using the right motor oil either a full synthetic or synthetic blend oil keeps the engine lubricated and clean.It is also recommended to try some other oil than what the manufacturers have recommended. Neglecting to change your oil regularly can either cause friction reducers to break down or dirt to build up in your oil, making it thick and abrasive, which can cause engine failure and damage.  It is recommended to check your owner’s manual to know when you should change your oil or just call Xclusive Automotive in Sydney to change the engine oil with same day service.

  1. CHANGE CAR’S ENGINE FILTER AND CABIN AIR FILTER REGULARLY

Engine air filter is the first line of defence for your car’s engine. A dirty engine air filter puts more stress on your engine resulting in poor acceleration and engine performance. Similarly, cabin air filter helps eliminate airborne dust particles and contaminants in your car. It is recommended to check and change these routinely. Your owner’s manual tells you exactly how often you should replace it or if you prefer you can visit your Xclusive Automotive auto mechanic shop in Sydney.

  1. MAINTAIN FLUID LEVELS

Whether you have an SUV, a compact car, mini-van or a luxury car, powered by petrol, diesel or electric, your car depends on fluids. Checking and maintaining fluid levels in your car is crucial for your car to function properly. These fluids include the engine oil, Coolant, Transmission fluid and Brake Fluid.

  1. CAR TYRES AND PRESSURE

Proper tire pressure offers you better fuel efficiency. Neglecting proper pressure will cause erratic and uneven wear which impacts the vehicle’s steering and handling.It is also a good practice to rotate your car tires regularly to extend the life of your tires.
