How Often European Auto Owners Should Change Their Fluids
Owning a European car is a valuable investment for many. From superior engineering, to exceptional performance, to the luxurious feel of excellent craftsmanship.
However, maintaining these vehicles requires careful attention to regular maintenance, especially when it comes to fluid changes.
This guide is intended to help you understand how often you should change you fluids.
Engine Oil
European cars often require specific types of oil. They also require more frequent oil changes for optimal performance. This means your oil should be changed every 8000-16,000 km.
Also, it should be noted – that for turbocharged engines or high-performance models, more frequent oil changes might be necessary.
Transmission Fluid
Transmission fluid lubricates the moving parts within the transmission, ensuring smooth gear shifts and protecting the transmission from wear and tear. This should be changed every 50,000 – 100,000 km.
Brake Fluid
Brake fluid is vital for the hydraulic brake system. These fluids should be changed every 2 years or 30,000 km.
Coolant/Antifreeze
- Every 50,000 km or 2 to 3 years.
Power Steering Fluid
- Every 50,000 to 80,000 km
Differential Fluid
- Every 50,000 to 80,000 km
Remember, proactive maintenance is key to enjoying your European car’s performance and luxury for years to come.
