Servicing cars: 4 girls


When I say "girls", I'm talking about 80% of the population. You know who you are.

Servicing is very easy. Take it to a mechanic every 6 months or 10,000km. But how do you know when it's time? When was the last time the oil was changed? The little sticker on the top corner of the windscreen in very important, because without it you don't know when it was serviced last.

A service is actually just getting the oil and oil filter changed and everything checked. But a mechanic will almost always find something else that needs to be fixed and changed. Often the things a mechanic finds the customer didn't know much about and would have been a bigger issue if it was left.

Other big things need doing in a service, but not every service. The coolant, brake fluid, transmission oil etc all need changing about every 2 years or so. So every second service you may do one of these things also.
