You were already late in the morning to start from home. You turned the keys to start the ignition. But you had to repeatedly crank to get the vehicle moving. Returning from the office, you notice the horn is not sounding loud enough. Such problems can trouble car owners if <\/span>minor car service<\/span><\/a> is not conducted as per schedule.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

What is a minor car service? <\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

It is a routine maintenance check done on the vehicle usually every 10,000 km to 15,000 km or based on time intervals of 6 months. It is done to ensure that the car is in perfect working condition.<\/span>
\n <\/p>\n

Here is a checklist for Minor Car services.<\/b><\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

Oil and Filter change:<\/b> Engine oil helps lubricate the moving parts and prevent overheating. The oil filter helps remove the debris in the oil, keeping it clean and functional.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Fluid Check and Top-ups: <\/b>Coolant helps the engine from overheating by circulating through passages within the engine block and cylinder head. The heated coolant flows to the radiator, which releases the heat to the atmosphere.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

During minor car services, we also inspect the brake fluid, power steering fluid, and windshield wiper washer liquid.<\/span><\/p>\n

Tyre Checks<\/b>: Tyre pressure, tread depth, tread wear, and the overall condition of the tyre and wheels are checked. If there is uneven tread wear, wheel alignment and balancing may have to be done. To prevent uneven wear, periodic tyre rotations are necessary.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Headlight, Lamps: <\/b>We inspect the headlight, lamps, turn signal indicators, tail lights, and horn to ensure their proper functioning.<\/span><\/p>\n

Battery Check:<\/b> The battery powers the electrical system of the car. Battery voltage is checked and battery terminals are inspected for corrosion. Corrosion of terminals can happen due to leakage of acid. The battery has to be securely mounted with clamps to prevent vibration.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

AC Inspection: The <\/b>AC is inspected for cooling efficiency. Unusual vibrations or sounds are checked. A drop in refrigerant levels can impact cooling efficiency. Leaks in hoses and pipes can cause cooling efficiency to fall.<\/span><\/p>\n

In short, minor car service helps keep the vehicle in excellent condition through essential checks and maintenance. It helps identify minor issues and prevent them from escalating. <\/span>
