Check if tyres are due for change( 4yrs of use)
Change engine oil. Check if gear oil is up to gauge. Check the brake pads. Check the shocks. Look out for any check light on the dashboard and fix if any. Check the bulbs to see if they are working. Register the car. Install tracker if possible.

In addition, scan the car even when there's no check engine light

Check brake disc as well

You foolish

If it is a Camry or Corolla, it means it time to start playing hide and seek with thieves.




Check fluid conditions, suspension and driveline.
