Tips For Reducing Your Car Maintenance Costs | Cash for Cars Atlanta

Anyone who drives a car knows how expensive it can be to maintain it. We can all think of better things we would prefer to spend our money on other than brakes or a new engine, but we usually don’t have much choice in the matter because we depend on our vehicles.  Prevention and regular check ups are key to reducing your long term maintenance costs. Here are a few tips to help you reduce your car care expenses:

Fluids, fluids, fluids: Your car needs fluids to run… period! Be sure that your car has oil (and oil changes), brake fluid, carburetor fluid and radiator fluid at the proper levels at all times.

Don’t ignore your lights: Warning lights are there for a reason. Address the issue immediately to prevent further damage or more costly repairs in the future.

Invest in a code reader: When your warning lights come on you can find out what the problem is yourself with a code reader. Then when you head to the mechanic you are more informed. You don’t want them telling you that you have a more serious or expensive problem than you actually do.

Change your oil filter: Dirty oil filters can cost you gas mileage and lead to other car problems that can be costly to fix. If you tend to forget about your oil filter, just replace it each time you have an oil change.  

Being proactive and informed can really reduce your car maintenance costs. If your car is simply beyond repair, sell it to us. We pay cash for cars in Atlanta. Call us today for a free quote and same day pick up. We are a trusted Atlanta car buyer!
