Do you have a used car? If you have a used car you should first pay attention to how to take care of him. Because without understanding the treatment may result in your car will be damaged and can not be used. Here are some how to care for a used car:

Each time to drive , it's good to check the engine . By conducting regular inspections , then we can know if there is some part or parts that need to be replaced . Typically , less comfortable while driving could be clues to the presence of a component or parts that require service or replacement .

Check your tires regularly . Checking tire should be done every time the car was about to be used . Check the thickness and wind pressure . Lack of tire pressure has been reduced thickness and can cause accidents on the road and it should be avoided as much as possible .

Avoid driving at high speed in the potholes . Hit the hole at high speed will shorten the life of the suspension , even can instantly damage the ball joint and tie rod . Would be quickly bald tires .

Check periodically  the lubricating oil of our car . Engine oil should be changed when it is used as far as 4000 to 5000 kilometers . Some types of cars even required to add engine oil prior to 2000 km , because the engine is already " drinking oil " . Power steering oil , brake fluid , washer solvent , anti-freeze fluid and transmission oil should also be checked and replaced regularly . In addition , while changing engine oil is highly recommended to also perform oil filter .

For convenience and safety while driving , it's worth checking out the lights in our car.

Batteries , which is the electrical components should be treated specifically . If using dry batteries , it is relatively easier to take care of him but if you still use a wet battery , it's good to check the battery water level and if necessary check how well his condition . When the battery is working less than the maximum , then the various electrical components will generally not be able to work optimally . Clean the crust stuck to the battery terminal as it will interfere with the performance of the battery and shortens its lifetime .

Check the condition of the wiper , especially during the rainy season . Driving with wipers that do not work well would be very dangerous because water droplets can not be swept away completely . When you find the rubber wipers have been unable to sweep the water point perfectly , soon replace . Mixing water in the tube wiper washer with cleaning fluid will also help comfort while driving , such a move would also make it more durable wiper .

Also check the condition of the engine belts . In general , the engine belt or timing belt needs to be replaced periodically every 45,000 to 50,000 km. The timing belt plays a very important , both for safety and engine performance .

Make sure the water in the radiator is always fully charged and working according to its function . When finding the engine exceeds normal temperature , it is worth or check the radiator drain immediately so that the engine does not heat up quickly and can result in overheating which can damage the components inside the machine .

Always preheat the engine when they want to use . This is to make sure the components inside the machine to be lubricated to reduce friction and wear .
