Current Care

During the maintenance of the car you will soon discover that it is possible - and necessary - to combine many of the procedures due to the similarity of action to implement them. For example, if the car is raised above the ground for chassis lubrication should be at the same time while you are under the car, inspect the exhaust system, suspension, steering system and the fuel system. If the wheels are removed for other works, it makes sense to check the brakes. Finally, suppose that you had to borrow or rent a torque wrench. Even if you only need it in order to tighten the spark plug, you can check at the same time the efforts of so many critical tightening nuts and bolts, how much is enough time. The first step in the program is the maintenance of the vehicle self-study.

Carefully read all the materials of the section relating to the forthcoming procedures, then prepare all the necessary materials, equipment and tools. If you are afraid to face the challenges in the implementation of some specific activities, consult an expert or a person who is already conducting this work.
