5 Must-Do Car Maintenance Tasks at 100K Miles
Car Maintenance Checklist: 5 Essential Services at 100,000 Miles Maintaining your vehicle is crucial for its longevity and safe operation. Many car owners may overlook essential maintenance as mileage increases. A recent video by Andy’s Auto Advice, an online car maintenance expert, highlights five key service items recommended at the 100,000-mile mark. These include replacing the serpentine belt, which drives essential components and degrades over time; replacing spark plugs, crucial for engine ignition; a coolant flush to purge contaminants from the cooling system; a brake fluid flush to remove moisture and prevent corrosion; and finally, a differential fluid flush to maintain optimal vehicle maneuverability and avoid costly repairs. As Andy states, "100,000 miles is just a good milestone where you can do a lot of this maintenance." Regular maintenance, as highlighted in this video, is a cost-effective way to ensure your car's health and safety.
