(1) Automobile basic maintenance

Basic maintenance mainly includes engine maintenance and chassis system maintenance.

Basic maintenance of engine

The lubrication system, oil supply system, cooling system, ignition system and cooling system of the engine should be regularly maintained according to the unit mileage or driving interval of the vehicle. Working fluids that usually need to be checked and supplemented mainly include coolant, lubricating oil, brake fluid, steering power oil, windshield cleaning fluid, headlight cleaning fluid and ATF oil. The main inspection, cleaning and replacement include battery replacement, three filters (intake filter, oil filter and gasoline filter) replacement, spark plug replacement and throttle body cleaning.

Basic maintenance of chassis system

Mainly for the braking system, suspension system and tire (tire pressure, wear) system, according to the vehicle's unit mileage or driving interval for regular maintenance.

(2) Seasonal maintenance of automobiles

Seasonal maintenance is mainly based on external factors such as temperature and environment, and it is divided into winter car maintenance and summer car maintenance.

Automobile maintenance in winter

According to the characteristics of rainy and snowy winter, cold weather and low ambient temperature. Considering the safety of driving and the normal running of vehicles, the wiper, windshield, heating system, engine cooling system, coolant, engine lubricating oil, battery, body paint, suspension and tires are inspected and maintained.

Car maintenance in summer

The environment is high and the rainy season is long, so the engine is prone to mildew and water. In order to ensure the normal running of vehicles and reduce the failure rate, it is necessary to inspect and maintain the battery, braking system, tires, engine lubrication system, engine cooling system and air conditioning system.
