1, three filters: air filter & filter and steam filter Air filter: filter block serious, will increase the intake resistance, the engine power down. At the same time due to increased air resistance, will increase the amount of inhalation of gasoline, resulting in mixing than too thick, so that the engine running state worse, increase fuel consumption, but also prone to carbon deposition. Usually should always develop a habit of checking the air filter cartridge.
Gasoline filter: 10000-20000 km replacement time; and one pump can be 60000 km replacement time. If you do not replace it, the oil can not be filtered so that the internal parts of the engine due to oil impurities in the accelerated wear.
Oil filter: oil replacement depends on the quality of oil, the general semi-synthetic oil and mineral oil should be about 5000 km replacement, and fully synthetic oil can be replaced 10,000 km.
2, wiper blade Into the rainy season, the use of wiper will be more and more frequent, the owner can then check their car wiper blade need to be replaced.
The life of the wiper blade varies according to its own quality and the use of the environment. The life span is usually between 2 and 4 years.

4, brake pads Depending on the individual's driving habits, the life of the brakes is different. Usually 60,000 km replacement time. Brake pads are directly related to traffic safety. It is recommended to check every 5000 km. Usually, the thickness of the new brake pads is about 1.5cm. If the thickness is less than 0.5cm, it is recommended to replace it. Or once the brake pads can not brake, the occurrence of traffic accidents, it would really crash the car.
5, spark plugs The use of too long spark plug easily lead to idle jitter, cold start difficult, and will increase fuel consumption, so the spark plug replacement cycle is best 4-7 million km.
6, timing belt Timing belt once broken, it will lead to the engine can not work, not only cause damage to the cylinder head, but also to traffic to bring security risks. So it is recommended to change for 4 years or every 60,000 km.
7, brake fluid Proposed 2 or 50,000 km replacement time. Although the brake fluid is very common, but also related to traffic safety, if the brake fluid expired, it will occur emulsification deterioration, resulting in brake failure, is very easy to lead to traffic accidents.
