Engine & Performance

• Monitor your engine temperature; a sudden rise may indicate radiator or thermostat issues.
• Regularly check brake and transmission fluid levels — low levels can cause major damage.
• Use manufacturer-recommended oil and follow real replacement intervals, not just the mileage indicated on the dashboard.
• Clean the throttle body and air intake periodically to prevent performance loss and high fuel consumption.
• If your car has a turbo, avoid heavy acceleration immediately after startup — let the engine reach optimal temperature.

Tires & Brakes

• Monitor tire wear and wheel alignment; even a few millimeters of difference can affect braking and fuel efficiency.
• Change tires according to the season and avoid mixing tire models or types on different wheels.
• Periodically inspect discs and calipers for signs of wear or vibrations during braking.

Electrical & Electronics

• Check the battery and terminals regularly; even minor corrosion can cause hidden electrical issues.
• Update your car software when available — updates and remaps can prevent malfunctions and improve efficiency.
• Regularly scan the OBD system for error codes that may appear before visible problems occur.

Seasonal Care

• Before winter, check all seals, antifreeze, windshield fluid, and the heating system.
• During summer, monitor tire pressure when tires are hot, and check the AC system, cabin filter, and coolant levels.

Interior & Exterior / Longevity

• Use specialized solutions to protect paint and interior: wax, ceramic treatments, or protective sprays.
• Clean air and cabin filters regularly to prevent engine overheating and unpleasant odors.
• If you have aftermarket accessories (ambient lights, window films), periodically check connections and mounts for safety and functionality.

Maintenance & Diagnostics

• If unusual noises or vibrations appear, note when and under what conditions — preventing major failures starts with small observations.
• Don’t ignore dashboard warning lights; even if the car seems fine, small untreated issues can escalate costs.
• Have a computer diagnosis performed regularly, even without visible problems — many failures can be prevented before affecting the engine.
• Before servicing, record the history of repairs and part replacements — it helps the mechanic give correct and fast recommendations.
