Question 1

How often should I check the air pressure in my tires?

Accepted Answer

At least once a month. Tires can lose pressure at a rate of one or two pounds a month, and that loss can be even greater with temperature fluctuations. Checking the air pressure in your tires is simple to do with a tire gauge. Look for a sticker attached to your car’s doorsill that tells you the recommended air pressure for your front and back tires.<BR>

Question 2

What kind of air gauge should I use to check the air pressure in my tires?

Accepted Answer

Digital tire pressure gauges are the most accurate, but even general gauges will work fine. Regardless of the gauge you choose, it’s important to use it consistently, as different gauges may present different numbers or variances. As long as you consistently check all four tires with the same gauge, your numbers should be accurate. Also, make sure you test air pressure when the tires are cool—if they’re warm, that can change the reading.<BR>

Question 3

How do I know what kind of oil my car needs?

Accepted Answer

Your car’s manufacturer specifies the type of oil you should use, so check your owner’s manual or ask your mechanic. Also, if you add oil between regular oil changes, make sure it matches the viscosity of the oil that’s already in your car (the brand doesn’t matter).<BR>

Question 4

How often should I have my car’s cooling system serviced?

Accepted Answer

You should have your cooling system flushed and refilled every two years, but you should also periodically check the level, condition and concentration of the coolant. A 50/50 mix of antifreeze and water is usually recommended.
