From the Experts at TenthKaJay Automotives
Your car isn’t just a machine — it’s your daily companion, your weekend getaway partner, and sometimes, your second home. That’s why regular maintenance isn’t optional — it’s essential.
At TenthKaJay Automotives, we’ve seen firsthand how a little care can prevent costly repairs and extend the life of your vehicle. Whether you’re in Dandenong, Melbourne, Colombo, or Kandy, these simple tips will keep your car performing at its best.
1. 🛢️ Change Your Oil Regularly
Oil is your engine’s lifeline. Neglecting oil changes can lead to overheating and serious damage. Always follow the recommended interval (usually every 5,000–10,000 km).
Pro Tip: Not sure when your last oil change was? Swing by your nearest TenthKaJay branch — we’ll check it for you!
2. 🔋 Check Your Battery
A dead battery can ruin your day — or your road trip. Test your battery every few months, especially before long drives. Look out for corrosion or slow engine cranks.
3. 🛞 Watch Your Tire Pressure and Tread
Under-inflated tires can affect fuel economy and handling. Over time, worn-out tread can also become a safety hazard.
Need a quick check or tire rotation? We’ve got you covered at all our service centers.
4. 🚿 Wash and Wax Regularly
Keeping your car clean isn’t just about looks. Dirt, salt, and grime can lead to rust and damage your paintwork. A good wash followed by waxing protects your car’s exterior and maintains resale value.
Drop by our TenthKaJay Car Wash for a full exterior and interior treatment.
5. 🚨 Pay Attention to Warning Lights
That little light on your dashboard? Don’t ignore it. It’s your car trying to tell you something. Whether it’s the engine, brakes, or fluids, early diagnosis saves money and hassle.
6. 🧊 Keep Fluids Topped Up
Coolant, brake fluid, transmission fluid, windshield washer — every drop matters. Regularly check fluid levels and top up as needed. Or let us do it for you with a quick maintenance check.
7. 📅 Don’t Skip Scheduled Services
Even if your car feels fine, skipping routine services can cause unseen wear. Stick to your manufacturer’s service intervals to avoid expensive surprises later on.
