Regular maintenance is the cheapest way to keep your car reliable. Here are ten habits our mechanics swear by:

1. Check engine oil level every two weeks.
2. Keep tyres at the recommended pressure.
3. Replace air filters every 10,000 km.
4. Inspect brake pads every service.
5. Keep the battery terminals clean.
6. Top up coolant and washer fluid.
7. Rotate tyres every 8,000–10,000 km.
8. Do not ignore warning lights.
9. Wash the underbody during monsoon.
10. Follow the service schedule in your manual.

Book a general service at CarFix Garage and our team will take care of all of these in one visit.

Engine oil lubricates, cools and cleans your engine. Old oil loses its protective properties and causes wear.

• Mineral oil: every 5,000 km or 6 months.
• Semi-synthetic: every 7,500 km or 9 months.
• Fully synthetic: every 10,000–15,000 km or 1 year.

If you drive mostly in stop-and-go city traffic like NCR, consider changing oil a little earlier. Our oil change service includes a genuine oil filter and a free 20-point check.

Ceramic coating forms a hard, glossy hydrophobic layer that resists UV, water spots and light swirl marks. It lasts 2–5 years.

Paint Protection Film (PPF) is a thick transparent urethane film that absorbs stone chips and scratches, and can even self-heal minor marks.

Delhi NCR summers are brutal. Watch out for these signs:

1. AC takes too long to cool the cabin.
2. Musty or bad smell from the vents.
3. Water leaking inside the cabin.
4. Unusual clicking or hissing noise.
5. Cooling is weak at idle.

CarFix AC service includes gas top-up, leak test, cooling coil cleaning and cabin filter replacement.

Dashboard lights are your car's way of talking to you.

• Red lights (oil pressure, temperature, brake) mean stop safely as soon as possible.
• Amber lights (check engine, ABS, TPMS) mean get it checked soon.
• Green/Blue lights are just information.

Our computerised OBD scanner reads the exact fault code so we fix the real problem — not guesswork.

Monsoon brings potholes, flooding and rust. Prepare with this checklist:

• Replace worn wiper blades.
• Check tyre tread depth for grip.
• Test all lights and indicators.
• Apply anti-rust underbody coating.
• Check door and sunroof rubber seals.
• Never drive through deep water — it can hydro-lock the engine.
