People always ask how often do they need to service their cars.

Car service intervals vary depending on the vehicle’s make, model, age, and driving conditions, but there are general guidelines most cars follow.
Most oil and filter change are between every 5,000 to 10,000 kilometers (or 3,000 to 6,000 miles), or every 6 to 12 months. There are also some mechanics who suggest changing oil every 3000 to 5000 klm.
A minor service, which includes oil changes, fluid top-ups, and basic inspections like brakes and tires, is usually done every 10,000 to 15,000 kilometers (or annually).
Major services, which are more comprehensive and include replacing air, cabin, and fuel filters as well as spark plugs, are often scheduled every 30,000 to 60,000 kilometers or every 2 to 3 years.
Brake fluid should be replaced every 2 years, and coolant is typically flushed every 2 to 5 years.
Transmission service, including fluid and filter changes, is usually recommended between 60,000 and 100,000 kilometers.
For cars with timing belts, replacement is essential every 90,000 to 160,000 kilometers or every 5 to 7 years to avoid serious engine damage.
Battery checks or replacements are common every 3 to 5 years, while tire rotation and balancing should be done roughly every 10,000 kilometers.
It’s always best to consult your vehicle’s owner manual, as specific recommendations can vary, especially depending on driving habits and environmental conditions.
