[QUOTE="jarance, post: 333954, member: 21"] What year is your car and what mileage have been clocked? When you buy the car did you have the previous owner service record? Based on the above, you can schedule the routine maintenance of the car. Just be on the lookout for lost of coolant. When you need to top coolant every week, this is a sign of leakage of water in the cooling system. Check the radiator, rubber hose and etc. Depending on your budget, you can change certain as you drive the car. Normally, changing the following is a must as they dont cost so much:- 1. Engine Oil 2. Air Filter Since you are at the workshop, ask the mechanic to do a visual inspection:- 1. Sign of oil leak at engine bay, absorber, power steering and gearbox 2. Sign of water stain around radiator and rubber hose. 3. Sign of wear and tear for control arm bushing, engine mounting, absorber rubber. 4. Sign of wear and tear for all the plastic and rubber material. [/QUOTE]
