How often should you get your cars transmission fluid changed?
It is very important that you change your car’s transmission fuel, it should be changed at least every year. If it is a new car then every year for the first five years will do, but if it is a used second hand car then you should change it every six months, depending on the cars performance. If the car appears to be running smoothly and you have taken it to a mechanic recently and there is nothing wrong with it, every year will be fine. But if your car has been giving you problems then it is probably because you haven’t changed the transmission fuel in a while.
How often should you change your engine oil?
Changing the oil in your car’s engine is very important and should not be forgotten. The oil and filter should be changed every year or every 7500 miles. If it is a diesel engine or a turbo charged gasoline engine then the oil should be changed every six months or could change it every 3000 miles, depending on if you keep track of your mileage or not, if you do then you will know when you have reached the 3000 mile mark.
