Dry as a Bone:Carefully dry the edges of the doors inside and out, including the undersides of door handles, all hinges, plus the hood and trunk edges.Use a good quality spray protectant on all exterior rubber or vinyl surfaces. It may be best to spray they applicator you are using instead of spraying the product directly onto the surface. This will avoid any overspray onto the paint.

The battery is the key component of your car's electrical system:and the main cause of vehicle breakdowns. A number of simple steps can be taken to ensure your battery is kept in optimum condition all year round.

1.Check battery terminals regularly to ensure they are clean and tight.
2.Ensure that the electrolyte level is correct, if topping up only use distilled water. Many newer batteries are maintenance free and won't require topping up.
3.If your battery has not been replaced in 3 – 4 years consider a replacement as battery failures often occur with no warning.

Tyre care is essential for maintaining vehicle safety:Tyres should be checked on a regular basis and before any long driving trips. Correctly maintained tyres will improve fuel economy, extend tyre life and improve vehicle safety.

1.Tyre inflation should be checked every two weeks when cold.
2.Abnormal wear patterns indicate possible wheel alignment or suspension problems.
3.Vibrations in the steering indicate the tyres may require balancing.
4.Make sure that tyres have a minimum of 1.6mm of tread depth.

An engine is made up of a large number of important moving parts:such as pistons, crankshaft, valves and the camshaft to name a few. Engine oil plays several important roles in ensuring that these all work together properly.Oil is a lubricant. Oil reduces friction and wear that occurs when parts move against each other, for example between the cylinder liner and piston ring, or the camshaft.

1.Engine oil level should be regularly checked regardless of vehicle age.
2.Only top up oil with correct grade as specified by manufacturer.
3.When topping up oil do not exceed the maximum recommend level.

Gas-Saving Tips:Use air conditioning (AC) when driving at higher speeds. Wind drag caused by open windows is more gas-consuming than AC when driving faster, for example on the highway. Limit AC use when driving in city traffic. Gas mileage can decrease by use of AC at lower speeds.Avoid the type of jackrabbit starts that “high tide” the blood in your head to the back of your skull. The faster you accelerate, the more gas you gorge.Avoid over tapping your brakes. The more you brake, the more you must accelerate, causing greater gas consumption.

Preventing Rust from Road Salt:Apply a meticulous coat of wax, followed by a wax sealant to help keep the wax adhered to the vehicle's paint.Seal the undercarriage, paying closest attention to the brake and fuel lines, as these are the most susceptible items for rust and corrosion and make your vehicle unsafe if they fail. You can buy a product to do this, or you can have it done professionally.

Keep a Clean Machine:Keeping your vehicle as clean as possible to cut down the damage done by salt and sand.Take your vehicle to the car wash as often as possible. Many car washes offer steam cleaning and undercarriage cleaning as well as traditional car washing,Have your car re-waxed and sealed when you have it washed.

Brake Fluid Facts:Keep these general facts in mind while handling brake fluid.

1.Never use DOT 5 brake fluid in a vehicle designed for DOT 3 or DOT 4 fluids.It is ok to use DOT 4 fluid in a vehicle that requires DOT 3, but not vice-versa.
2.NEVER substitute any other fluid for brake fluid.
3.Wash your hands immediately after coming in contact with brake fluid. It eats paint, so imagine what it'll do to skin.
4.Properly discard brake fluid that's been unsealed for more than one year

Change the air filter:This is something you can do easily at home without using tools, and should be done approximately every 12 thousand miles. You can buy a matching filter at nearly any auto parts store and your owner's manual will show you where your air filter is located. A dirty, dusty filter can lower gas mileage.

Flush these fluids every two years: power steering fluid, brake fluid, and cooling system anti-freeze. Check this timetable against your owner's manual. Newer cars generally allow longer intervals between changes. Change transmission fluid & filter at least every 50,000 miles (40k to 45k is even better). If you have gone over 50,000 miles without a change, on many transmissions, it is best to NOT change it and hope for the best. Often putting new transmission fluid in a trans that has too many miles on the fluid will actually cause problems because it can break down 'varnish' and other gums/solids that have built up in the trans due to over-used fluid.

Monitor your brake pad thickness and don't let the pads wear down to metal:this will cause damage to your brake rotors (disc) at least and possibly your calipers as well. Rotors and calipers are much more expensive to replace than pads. There is no such thing as "cleaning" a brake pad while it is still on a car - the friction between the pad and rotor will eradicate any outside substance almost immediately.

Rotate the tires:Changing tire position is very important and reduces uneven wear and tear on the tread, thus extending the life of the tires. The recommended rotation cycle is twice a year or every 6,000 miles. Rotate them diagonally - front right to rear left and front left to rear right. However, this pattern can change depending on the drivetrain of the vehicle, and the type of tire. Your vehicle manual will contain detailed rotation information. Keep in mind some tires (especially on sports cars) are directional and are meant to spin only one way. They will have a large arrow on the sidewall to indicate this.

Keep the tires inflated:Under-inflated tires can reduce the tire life by 15% and will slightly decrease your gas mileage, perhaps by 10%. Inflating tires is perhaps the easiest of all activities, and many stores sell tire gauges for a very small cost. Checking your tire pressure every other time you get gas will reduce tire wear and prevent these issues. Monitor your tire tread with a penny. Insert the penny into the tread with Lincoln's head down. If the top of his head is not obscured by the tread, your tires need to be replaced. Basically, if you can see all of Lincoln's head, you must replace your tires.

Keep the front end aligned:If you notice your car shaking while driving at high speeds (not while braking - shuddering while braking indicates warped rotors), or if your tread is wearing unevenly, then you may need an alignment. This is also key to extending the life of your tires and will keep the tread even for increased safety.

Get your car off to a good start every time you drive it:Start the car and drive off slowly and gently until the car reaches operating temperature. This reduces the strain on the engine while the oil is still cold and thicker. Another option is to use electric engine space heaters, and start the drive with a warm engine. Accelerate promptly to the target speed. For most modern cars, idling a cold engine is both counterproductive and wasteful. Additionally, as you accelerate, release the gas a bit to cause the automatic transmission to upshift while you are not pressing hard on the gas. This causes less wear on the internal clutches. It is easier on the clutches for the car to shift when you ease up on the gas.

Use your parking brake:Even if you are driving a car with an automatic transmission, use your parking brake regularly, especially if you're parked on an incline. It helps keep the brakes adjusted in the rear of the car and makes them last longer. Do not use your parking brake in the winter time because your brake will freeze and it will be stuck until it thaws out.

Change the oil regularly:This will improve your gas mileage and protect your engine. The recommended mileage between oil changes is 3,000 - 5,000 miles (or 5000 - 8000 kilometres) or every 3 to 6 months. Doing this could make it possible for your vehicle to attain 200,000 miles. Change the oil filter as well - there is no sense in putting clean oil through a dirty filter, and filters are very cheap and available at any parts store. Please check your service manual, or contact your dealer for your car's specific needs

Keep your windscreen washer water full:A dirty windscreen can be a distraction so keep this full so that you’ve always got fluid to clean it in the event that it gets dirty. Your car manual will tell you where it’s located but if you’re not sure then pop the bonnet of your vehicle and you should be able to find it. If in doubt ask someone the next time you’re at your local garage.

A stitch in time saves nine:This old saying is definitely true when it comes to cars. A relatively small and inexpensive problem left unchecked can become a major problem. Take rust for example, a small speck of rust left unattended to will continue to grow over time, sometimes unseen, and can result in costly repairs. So if you notice a problem with your car then investigate it at the earliest opportunity, don’t leave it for another day as you could end up regretting it.

Drive with care:Drive sensibly and your car’s engine will certainly appreciate it. You’re also less likely to be involved in an accident. Fast acceleration uses more fuel so you’ll also reduce fuel consumption which will save you money in the long run.

Engine coolant levels:It is recommended that you check that your coolant fluid level is between the maximum and minimum marks on the tank at least once a week when the engine is cold. If the coolant level has dropped, make sure that you get it checked out at your local garage because ordinarily coolant levels should remain at the same level between services.

Cooling fan:The only way to check on the health of your cooling fan is to turn the heater to cold and run the car to normal temperatures (i.e. the middle of your temperature gauge). Once this has been reached, keep the engine running while parked up but do not use the car for five minutes. The fan should automatically kick in after this length of time.
