You can schedule your car maintenance by the vehicle’s mileage. By keeping these tips in mind, it will be easier to remember scheduling car check-ups.

Change oil: This one can be done every 3000 miles. Don’t forget to change the oil filter at the same time. Other details you may need to look into are the fluids, air filter, tires, hoses, and belts. Battery cables and terminals may have corroded at this point so check them too. These can be cleaned with sandpaper. But if you are not sure on how to go about it, then it is better to have your car checked by a professional.

Tire rotation: Have your tires checked and rotated every five to ten thousand miles. Check the pressure of each tire and be on the look out for signs of tread wear and damage. There is a system to tire rotation in order to get the optimum performance for your tires. Ask your mechanic on the details for this.
