How often do you take your car to be maintenanced?

Answer 1

Never, I do it myself.

You should have the oil changed every 3000 miles, the book may tell you 5000, which is OK, but every 3000 is better. If you use a good mechanic they will check the rest of the car out when they change the oil. If you use the same shop on a regular basis they will usually keep records on your car and suggest when it is time to preform other maintenance.

Check the owners manual, it should tell you.

Yuo should get your oil and filter changed every 3,000 miles or once every three months depending on which comes first. This is a very important thing to do as well for the health of your cars enging. I like to check and lubricate all the lube joins at this time as well. You should also have a mechanic (one that you can trust) go over the car annually as well and makes repairs / adjustments as needed. Rotate your tires, and check brakes as needed to

Answer 5

Every three months or three thousand miles we get the oil and filter changed, the chassis lubricated. The tires we rotate every 7,500 miles. Tuneups are done as per the manufacturer's recommendation. The air filter, brake fluid, power steering fluid and coolant are checked regularly, by me and by mechanics at the dealership, as per recommendation. The rest of the maintenance is done as necessary (when the battery died, it was replaced; when the brakes started to feel soft or started squeaking, they were replaced).
