TIPS
- Your vehicle's fuel filter needs to be replaced most often out of all your vehicles filters, and should be done every 10 000 - 15 000 miles
- Your vehicle's AC system doesn't need to be inspected too often, but it's a good time to get it recharged when you notice the air isn't as cool as it used to be.
- Serpentine belts are designed to last roughly 50 000 miles, but if you hear a whining noise while your car's on, be sure to get it checked, as it's integral to your vehicle's operation.
