These days, some people drive and use their cars as if it is something that will never spoilt. Some give no attention to their car until it can no longer move. Those in this 'I-can-manage-it' category will always find it difficult to repair their car when eventually the faults accumulate.

Due to the complexities of the faults, they will end up leaving their cars to occupy the little space that are in mechanics.

In case you're not aware, below are sure ways to cut the life of your car short.


Ignoring regular maintenance.
Don't be surprised to see your car on its way to the mechanic workshop when you neglect basic scheduled maintenance. Some of the neglects in regular maintenance include: Skipping oil changes and transmission services. Remember that when you follow the suggested maintenance, as directed by the manufacturers, you'll get good performance, longevity and efficient operation of your car.

Driving with low or no engine oil.
Some dudes will just wake up in the morning, turn on the engine and drive off without gauging the engine oil level. In some cases, they will see the 'engine oil light' very clear on the dashboard, but they'll keep on cruising, having in their mind that they can manage. Unfortunately, they will hear a knock or tapping, instead of stopping, you just tune up the radio instead. Soon, the engine will start to lose power and eventually, the car stalls. This may be the end of the story for the engine. The engine have to be replaced because there was no oil in the system. Shutting off the engine on time can avert this ugly experience of a knocked engine.

Driving an overheated car.
Driving your car when the temperature gauge is buried in the "hot" zone is very bad. Some will like to mange it like that home or even to a mechanic workshop, but will still get unlucky on their way. And at the end of the day, they will get their engine knocked.
