What is the approximate cost of car maintenance?

According to the exchange rate/unit price in March 2020, the ordinary brand is 400-500 yuan/time (including working hours) and the luxury brand 1000 yuan/time (including working hours).

Car maintenance can be divided into minor maintenance and major maintenance. Minor maintenance generally refers to routine maintenance items to ensure automobile performance, mainly including replacing oil and oil filter and routine inspection.

Automobile engine needs lubrication, and engine oil plays the role of lubrication, cleaning, sealing and cooling. However, with the driving of the car, the base oil and additives in the engine oil will deteriorate and fail, so it is necessary to change the engine oil regularly in order to protect the engine.

In addition to minor maintenance items, major maintenance requires replacement of air filters, oil filters, gasoline filters and spark plugs. In addition, key components such as brake fluid, antifreeze, gearbox oil and timing belt should be replaced in major maintenance projects.

Matters needing attention in automobile maintenance

First, the maintenance of automobile engines

Car engines should be cleaned at the right time. Because long-term use will form a thick layer of carbon deposit on the engine surface, which will have a great corrosive effect on the rubber parts in the engine.

Second, we should prevent gasoline and water from evaporating.

In summer, the temperature is generally higher. So gasoline and water evaporate more easily than usual. Because the water tank and oil tank should be checked frequently, gasoline and water should be added in time when there is little.

Third, pay attention to hygiene in the car.

Summer is the fastest season for bacteria to multiply, so it is necessary to keep the car clean, especially the car seat cushion, steering wheel cover and car mat.
