Vehicle maintenance can be a daunting part of owning your own vehicle. It can be time-consuming, expensive, and complicated. Lucky for you - Car Pros Honda El Monte wants to help make it easier! One of the most important parts of your engine system is the multiple fluids that are in it. Here are 5 fluids that should be checked regularly.
- Engine Oil - Engine oil is the blood of your engine. It keeps everything moving smoothly to ensure the best performance from your vehicle. Depending on your engine type determines how often your engine oil should be changed. Check your Owner’s Manual to see a general timeline of when to change it.
- Coolant/Antifreeze - The coolant/antifreeze is a temperature regulator for your engine. Just like engine oil, rangers for checking/changing coolant varies, but typically should be checked around every 30,000 miles.
- Transmission fluid - Transmission fluid protects your transmission and keeps everything lubricated for a smooth driving experience. This fluid should be checked every 30,000 - 60,000 miles depending on your driving conditions.
- Power Steering Fluid - If you like the ease of steering your vehicle with minimum effort from yourself, you should make sure to check your power steering fluid every 2 years or 75,000 miles.
- Washer Fluid - Who likes a dirty windshield? Keep it clean with the washer fluid! This is a simple fluid to replace at every service interval or when it runs out to keep a clear view while driving.
