It is only natural for someone to want to extend the life of\ntheir car for as long as possible in order to make the most out of their\ninvestment. This societal objective, coupled with the innovative technologies\nand advancements made in the automotive manufacturing industry over the past\nfew decades, makes it more and more common for people to have older vehicles.\nCars are performing stronger and lasting longer than they ever have in the\npast, which is why so many people still drive older model vehicles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
What You Need to Do<\/h1>\n\n\n\n
To continue supporting dependable and safe performance in an\nolder car, you must stay on top of all your automotive care requirements,\nnamely, factory scheduled maintenance. Check with the owners\u2019 manual for\nfactory recommendations on when and what to service on your particular make and\nmodel vehicle. In addition to your owners\u2019 manuals, below are the important\ntips you should follow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2611 Fluid Inspections<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Older cars need more attention, and one area they need more\nattention are the fluid levels. Every vehicle requires 7 essential fluids,\nincluding motor oil, transmission fluid, radiator fluid (coolant), battery\nfluid, power steering fluid, brake fluid, and windshield wiper fluid. All of\nthese fluids require more frequent inspection in order to ensure they are at\nthe proper levels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2611 Oil Changes <\/h2>\n\n\n\n
When it comes to fluid changes, motor oil is vital. Older\ncars have higher mileage, and higher mileage vehicles require oil changes more\noften than lower mileage vehicles. Whatever your owners\u2019 manual recommends for\noil changes, you will need to increase the amount. Instead, change the oil and\nfilter every 3,000 to 5,000 miles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2611 Spark Plug Replacement<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Although it is not something you thing about, spark plugs\nare a vital component in an automotive engine, and sometimes, they need to be\nreplaced as early as 30,000 miles. It is wise to have your spark plugs\ninspected by a licensed Indianapolis mechanic to ensure they are in good\ncondition. Many older cars greatly benefit from having their spark plugs\nreplaced.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2611 Time Belt Replacement<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Just like spark plugs, timing belts do not last forever.\nAfter so many miles, they usually need to be replaced. It is a need that is\noften overlooked by old car owners. For vehicles with 100,000 miles or more, it\nis strongly recommended to have the timing chain inspected, and replaced if\nneed be.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
