Check Your Engine Temperature
Another important factor that every car owner should be aware of is the temperature of their engine, both in terms of its current state and the temperature at which it should be operating at any given time. Never assume that the fuel temperature warning light will save you in an emergency situation; in most cases, you’ve already encountered a major problem by the time the light comes on.
Keep A Maintenance Log
Keep a vehicle maintenance log if you haven’t already. If you haven’t already, now is an excellent time to start. This is a convenient way to view the health and history of your vehicle in one convenient location. The last time your tires were replaced or the last time your coolant and other fluids were checked should not be a mystery to you. Keeping an accurate and consistent maintenance log is the best way to ensure that you are completely aware of what is going on.
