The frequency of car servicing can depend on several factors, including the make and model of your car, its age, and how often and under what conditions it's driven. As a general guideline, most manufacturers recommend getting your car serviced every 12,000 to 15,000 miles or once a year, whichever comes first.
It used to be normal to change the oil every 3,000 miles, but with modern lubricants, most engines today have recommended oil change intervals of 5,000 to 7,500 miles. Moreover, if your car's engine requires full-synthetic motor oil, it might go as far as 15,000 miles between services!
Diesel engines are more fuel-efficient than petrol engines. This factor may play an important role when choosing between a petrol and diesel variant of a vehicle. However, remember that a diesel engine requires more maintenance than a petrol engine.
Each vehicle has its own specifications for tire pressure, but most fall between 28 and 36 PSI (pounds per square inch).
