Take Care of Your Car's Heart

The engine of your car is what the heart is to our bodies. Your car can't function without it's "heart" working properly. Here are a few tips for taking care of your car's engine, courtesy of Carzy, to help your automobile run smoothly and last longer...

1. Change the oil after every 3000-5000 miles - Changing the oil is like giving nourishment to your automobile like we give to our bodies to keep it fit and healthy! It helps your car maintain better mileage regardless of it being 5-6 years old! Using oil that works on synthetic technology proves life-giving to the engine because synthetic oil breaks down slowly and better lubricates the engine of your vehicle.

2. Service your vehicle regularly - When you have spent a fortune to buy your awesome vehicle, what’s the use of behaving miserly by getting it serviced at some unauthorized service center run by any Tom, Dick, or Harry down the street? Always get your vehicle serviced at an authorized service center.

3. Get your oil filter changed regularly - The oil filter is changed by the service engineer at the time of servicing, but make sure you always stick with the same type of oil. Changing the oil type can prove fatal for your engine.

4. Also take care to check the oil level - This is an essential part of car engine maintenance. The oil level should be so maintained so that it bends towards ‘F’ or Full. Be careful not to overfill it. And if you find that the level of the oil remains lower than ‘Full’, there might be an oil leak in your car engine region. So keep the area appropriately damp but never make it totally wet. Make sure your vehicle doesn’t leave any trail of oil, and if you notice leaking get it repaired at the service center without further delay.
