Change the oil and check the fluids:As a general rule, check your oil each month and change it . If you don't drive that frequently, you can likely go a bit longer. Oil isn't the only fluid your car needs. Around the time you change your oil, remember to check your power-steering, automatic transmission, wiper, and brake fluids.

Tyre care is essential for maintaining vehicle safety:Tyres should be checked on a regular basis and before any long driving trips. Correctly maintained tyres will improve fuel economy, extend tyre life and improve vehicle safety.

1.Tyre inflation should be checked every two weeks when cold, recommended pressure can be found in the owner's manual.
2.Abnormal wear patterns indicate possible wheel alignment or suspension problems.
3.Vibrations in the steering indicate the tyres may require balancing.
4.Make sure that tyres have a minimum of 1.6mm of tread depth.

An engine is made up of a large number of important moving parts:such as pistons, crankshaft, valves and the camshaft to name a few. Engine oil plays several important roles in ensuring that these all work together properly.

1.Engine oil level should be regularly checked regardless of vehicle age.
2.Only top up oil with correct grade as specified by manufacturer.
3.When topping up oil do not exceed the maximum recommend level.

Your vehicle's cooling system is vital to the operation of your vehicle:Driving at freeway speeds and hot summer days put a lot of stress on your vehicle's cooling system. Basic checks can assist in maintaining your vehicle's cooling system.

1.Only inspect your cooling system when the engine is cold. Never remove the radiator cap when the engine is hot.
2.Check coolant level regularly.
3.Only use the recommended coolant for your vehicle.
4.If your cooling system requires regular refilling there may be a leak in the system.

Monitor your brake pad thickness and don't let the pads wear down to metal:this will cause damage to your brake rotors (disc) at least and possibly your calipers as well. Rotors and calipers are much more expensive to replace than pads. There is no such thing as "cleaning" a brake pad while it is still on a car - the friction between the pad and rotor will eradicate any outside substance almost immediately.

Flush these fluids every two years:power steering fluid, brake fluid, and cooling system anti-freeze. Check this timetable against your owner's manual. Newer cars generally allow longer intervals between changes. Change transmission fluid & filter at least every 50,000 miles (40k to 45k is even better). If you have gone over 50,000 miles without a change, on many transmissions, it is best to NOT change it and hope for the best. Often putting new transmission fluid in a trans that has too many miles on the fluid will actually cause problems because it can break down 'varnish' and other gums/solids that have built up in the trans due to over-used fluid.

Change the air filter:This is something you can do easily at home without using tools, and should be done approximately every 12 thousand miles. You can buy a matching filter at nearly any auto parts store and your owner's manual will show you where your air filter is located. A dirty, dusty filter can lower gas mileage.

Re: ***Kakakibuy + Joker5180 DELIVERED 2002 Mercedes Benz C240**Ohio To Naija*PICS** by kakakibuy(m): 4:53pm On Aug 27, 2014
Rotate the tires:Changing tire position is very important and reduces uneven wear and tear on the tread, thus extending the life of the tires. The recommended rotation cycle is twice a year or every 6,000 miles. Rotate them diagonally - front right to rear left and front left to rear right. However, this pattern can change depending on the drivetrain of the vehicle, and the type of tire. Your vehicle manual will contain detailed rotation information. Keep in mind some tires (especially on sports cars) are directional and are meant to spin only one way. They will have a large arrow on the sidewall to indicate this.

Keep the tires inflated:Under-inflated tires can reduce the tire life by 15% and will slightly decrease your gas mileage, perhaps by 10%. Inflating tires is perhaps the easiest of all activities, and many stores sell tire gauges for a very small cost. Checking your tire pressure every other time you get gas will reduce tire wear and prevent these issues. Monitor your tire tread with a penny. Insert the penny into the tread with Lincoln's head down. If the top of his head is not obscured by the tread, your tires need to be replaced. Basically, if you can see all of Lincoln's head, you must replace your tires

Keep the front end aligned:If you notice your car shaking while driving at high speeds (not while braking - shuddering while braking indicates warped rotors), or if your tread is wearing unevenly, then you may need an alignment. This is also key to extending the life of your tires and will keep the tread even for increased safety.

Wash your car:Road salt, sludge and pollution can lead to costly body work. Without regular cleaning, you can start to notice rust on the bottom of your doors within four years. Another three to four years and the corrosion will creep to underbody components, like brake lines. It can cost thousands in rust-related repairs if you neglect to wash your car, especially near ocean/gulf shorelines where the road sand or morning dew might be salty.

Use your parking brake:Even if you are driving a car with an automatic transmission, use your parking brake regularly, especially if you're parked on an incline. It helps keep the brakes adjusted in the rear of the car and makes them last longer. Do not use your parking brake in the winter time because your brake will freeze and it will be stuck until it thaws out.

Get your car off to a good start every time you drive it:Start the car and drive off slowly and gently until the car reaches operating temperature. This reduces the strain on the engine while the oil is still cold and thicker. Another option is to use electric engine space heaters, and start the drive with a warm engine. Accelerate promptly to the target speed. For most modern cars, idling a cold engine is both counterproductive and wasteful. Additionally, as you accelerate, release the gas a bit to cause the automatic transmission to upshift while you are not pressing hard on the gas. This causes less wear on the internal clutches. It is easier on the clutches for the car to shift when you ease up on the gas.

Check the fluids:You should check the level of your antifreeze, oil, transmission fluid, power steering fluid, and brake fluid, very regularly: like every time you buy gas. Even if your car doesn't leak fluids, it can develop a leak and quickly have a dangerously low level of something. You should also check the color of some of these fluids. Some of these have see-through plastic tanks that you can look through, and some have dipsticks. Antifreeze should be either pink, green, or yellow (Pink for newer cars with "Dex-Cool", green for old cars with plain Ethyl-Glycol, and green or yellow for cars that have been flushed and filled with universal antifreezes...brown antifreeze should always be flushed, it either has rust or a lot of dirt in it, probably both. Also, never mix antifreezes; if you don't know what color antifreeze your car has, buy a universal brand. Oil should be relatively clear, not black - black oil has been left in the engine for too long. Oil that looks white and milkshake-like has water in it, probably from an internal antifreeze leak, or very rarely, just a large amount of condensation. Transmission fluid should be bright red, and should not smell burnt...it probably needs to be changed if it's brown or smells burnt.

CAR COOLING SYSTEM:The Car Cooling System should be maintained with utmost importance. This system is responsible for maintaining or protecting the valuable engine of the car. The cooling system stops the car engine from overheating.
The most important component of the cooling system is the coolant. The coolant is a special kind of liquid used to cool the engine. The coolant level should be checked at regular intervals and more frequently during summers.The cooling system accessories like its pipes and hoses should be checked for leakage or for mal-functioning at regular intervals. The pressure caps attached to the radiator should also be examined properly to ensure that the cap is not defective. Even the fan belt should be examined as well.

CAR ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:The Car Electrical System is as important as the nervous system of the human body. Any failure or any kind of altercation can cause serious damage to the car and a lot of inconvenience for the car owner.
The different components of the electrical system are the battery, the switches, the wiring, the fuses etc. However, out of all of them the most important are the battery and the fuses.
The battery should be maintained properly and checked regularly. The water level of the battery should be maintained properly. If the car is not being in use, then the battery terminals should be removed. The battery and the alternator should have to be in very good shape to ensure that there is no starting problem.
The fuses and the wiring are equally important as well. The fuses should also be checked and maintained to make sure that the fuses do not blow up while the car is in motion and create inconvenience for everybody.

CAR FUEL SYSTEM:Car Fuel System is another essential aspect of a car. Fuel used in the car should be of high quality. Until and unless the fuel is of high quality the mileage of the car will not be good.
Low quality fuel if used can cause many serious problems for the car. For example, the fuel filter can become dirty and can cause problems.
The other important components of the fuel system are the air filter, the spark plug and the timing belt. Even the maintenance of all these components is to be taken very seriously and needs to be examined at regular intervals. If required they should be replaced as well.

Exterior upkeep:There are a variety of elements that can damage the paint on a car. Dead insects, fresh tarmac from road constructions, etc if left unattended will damage the paint on a car. To protect against all of that it is always wise to have a Teflon coating put on the car from the manufacturer. A Teflon coating protects the paint by preventing different things like marks of bird droppings, tree sap, dead insects, etc from sinking into the paint of the car. It will also prevent minor scratches on the paint while wiping the car dry.

Feeling the Summer Heat? Your Car Battery is Too:Excessive heat and overcharging are the two main reasons for shortened battery life. Heat causes battery fluid to evaporate, thus damaging the internal structure of the battery. A malfunctioning component in the charging system, usually the voltage regulator, allows too high a charging rate, leading to slow death for a battery.If your battery is the type that needs to be topped off, check it regularly, especially in hot weather. Add distilled water when necessary and always replace a battery with one that’s rated at least as high as the one originally specified.
