[ "You don't have to be an expert mechanic to have a car, but all drivers should be familiar with the following car care essentials. All of these are there under Car Service Longton.How to Replace HeadlightsYou cannot avoid this. Headlights inevitably burn out, and if they do, you must change them as quickly as possible. They are the safety components in an automobile since they help you look and others to recognize you. Luckily, replacing a car headlight is quick and easy maintenance that anyone can do themselves. It's so quick that you'll probably save time if you do it yourself instead of booking an appointment and leaving your vehicle off at a mechanic. Have a set of extra bulbs on hand and you'll be back in business in less than 30 minutes.Checking Tyre PressureBecause all tyres lose air, monitoring your tyres weekly is an important part of fundamental car maintenance. Use the same tyre pressure gauge every time and test the air pressure first thing each morning, rather than after you've driven on them or they have been in the hot sun. NOT the maximum pressure printed on the tyre, pump to the pressures present on the carmaker's decal (on the driver's door or frame). The appropriate tyre pressure gets determined by the mass of your vehicle, not by the tyre brand or tread design. Tyres last longer when they are regularly maintained.How to Change Wiper BladesIt's simple to tell whenever your blades need replacement. Simply push the washer icon and check to see if the blades are clean. There will be plenty of economy blades at the car parts store but go for a national brand instead. They are more expensive than economy blades, but their higher-quality rubber cleanses better, is more UV resistant, and lasts longer.Obey the package's installation guide. When you get rid of the old blade, make sure you have a secure grip on the wiper handle. If it pulls away from you, it has the potential to fracture the windshield.Checking the Oil LevelGet a rag, open the hood, and replace the dipstick. Now if you are not able to find where it is, see your owner's handbook). Clean the dipstick with the rag and replace it in the dipstick tube. It is important to make sure it is completely seated (goes all the way in). Then take it out one more to inspect your oil level. The dipstick will have two marks, notch, or holes denoting the "FULL" and "ADD" volumes. You're out of oil if the oil falls underneath the ADD mark. Add just about enough oil to fill the dipstick to the top.Do it yourself instead of going to the technician for the next oil change.Changing your oil may seem daunting at first, but when you get the hang of that as well, it's just a simple car repair that saves you a significant amount of money.How to Measure Tyre Tread DepthDon't bother with the penny-in-the-tread technique. A tread depth gauge is far more precise and only costs a few dollars. Assess the tread depth about 1 inch from each edge and the middle tread depth. They must all be similar. If they aren't, your vehicle could be out of line.How to Examine the Engine Air FilterIt's simple to test and replace your filter, so do it immediately. Instead of following the manufacturer's recommended service intervals, change the filter depending on its underlying situation. It is quite easy to check and see what condition they are in. Simply take it out and examine it. If the back-light test fails, it's time to upgrade the air filter. Vacuum out the debris in the air purifier box whilst the filter is out.Windshield Washer Fluid RefillThis may sound obvious, but if you don't realize where your windshield washer fluid tank is, open the hood and look for it right away. You do not want to be stuck on a muddy road without any windshield washer fluid!Also, carry some backup liquid in your trunk in case you have to replenish it quickly. You can also fix your windshield washer manually if necessary.How to Wash Your VehicleYou do not even have to be a professional vehicle detailer to make your ride shine. You can also save money by doing it yourselves. If you dont want to consider that option then c is at your rescue." ]
