But how often and at what intervals are car maintenance appointments necessary?
When is it time for inspection?
Depending on the type of car, an inspection is due after 9,000 miles to 18,000 miles. In modern, high-priced vehicles, sensors monitor the relevant components and report when it is time for service. Have a look in the service book of your car where the recommended inspection intervals are shown. A must is regular maintenance appointments for new cars if the dealer's warranty is bound to particular maintenance dates.
Advantage - value retention
When you sell a car, you have the particular advantage that you can offer your car with a stamped service book. People will prefer buying from you as they can see, the car has been well looked after.
This can get you more money as well.
Maintenance protects against unexpected car breakdowns.
Unfortunately, wearing components, such as the timing belt, do not make themselves felt and the entire engine is already gone. Inspection costs may have been saved – but expensive repair bills can be the result.
You can do a lot to maintain your car’s engine etc. through regular oil changes and the selection of high-quality oils, however, avoiding maintenance of the vehicle can lead to major damage.
Tip: Plan the maintenance and inspection costs already with the purchase of a car.
