The car will serve for 20 years: how to keep the engine running properly

A responsible driver always pays attention to the operation of his car. Because he knows that any problem must be fixed immediately so that the car will serve the owner for many more years.

Apostrophe Life has prepared a few simple rules that will increase the lifespan of the engine.

Regular inspection and service when necessary should become a routine for you.

Change the engine oil

This procedure should be carried out every 6-8 thousand kilometers. High-quality oil provides the best conditions for engine operation to prevent overheating and accelerated wear.

Change the antifreeze regularly

Change the antifreeze regularly. It helps to maintain engine temperature, preventing overheating or freezing of the cooling system in all weather conditions. It is recommended to change the antifreeze every two years.

Keep the radiator clean

Keep the radiator clean. Gradually, it becomes contaminated with dust and insects, which impede the free flow of air through its fins.

Change filters regularly

Periodically replace the filters that clean the air, fuel, and oil from dirt and harmful particles. The filters must be changed in a timely manner as they become dirty and lose their effectiveness.

Keep an eye on the fuel injectors

Injectors can become contaminated with oil over time. At the first sign of a malfunction, contact a service center to prevent serious engine problems.

Replace the motor belt in a timely manner

The belt wears out and loses its flexibility, which can cause it to break during operation. Such a breakdown can lead to serious problems with your car.

Start from winter mode properly

After starting a cold engine, let it run for a couple of minutes. This will prepare the car for operation, prevent problems with the exhaust system, and keep the engine running well.
