1. Change the oil and filter regularly

The owner's manual for your car will specify exactly how often you should do this, but a good rule of thumb is to change them every 3,000 to 4,000 miles. If you change the oil and filter yourself, be sure to dispose of the used oil properly.

2. Ensure you check all the fluids

This includes brake, power steering, transmission, transaxle, windshield washer and antifreeze fluids. Your owner's manual will tell you how to check these.

3. Check the air pressure level in your tyres at least once a month

Check the air pressure level in your tyres at least once a month. Your owner's manual should specify the ideal air pressure for your particular tyre

5. Rplace the windshield wiper plades periodically

If your wiper blades are cracked or torn, or if they begin to streak, it's time to replace them.
