To begin with, any mess inside the car should be cleaned, it can be a distraction as well as dangerous, especially when the garbage is near the pedals. Don't forget to remove items that have accumulated in the trunk, these can add weight and reduce fuel efficiency.

Brake fluid:
The brake fluid exerts hydraulic pressure on the brakes, pushing the linings towards the discs causing a braking force. If you do not have the brake fluid of your car in good condition, it can become saturated with water, which would cause it to heat up during the braking process. Air bubbles would be created in the hydraulic system and the braking efficiency would be compromised.

Air-conditioning:
If you are one of the people who only use the air conditioning of your car only in the hot season, remember to open the windows when you start the car to remove the hot air and then close them to turn on the a/c, this way you can take advantage of maximum use.
As a precaution, keep in mind that regardless of the weather, you must use the air conditioning at least once a week for at least 2 minutes, this way you will circulate the oil in the compressor and the equipment will remain lubricated, avoiding future failures.

Antifreeze:
With the use of the vehicle, the antifreeze fluid loses its main properties (cooling) due to temperature variations and changes in state.
By replacing it, you ensure that the cooling maintains the correct temperature for optimal engine operation, as well as regulating the effects of boiling, freezing and corrosion, properties that water does not have. Remember that every replacement of the coolant requires a rinse and a purge.
