When to service your car

There is a manual in your glove compartment you need to look at. 

It will tell you when to get tune ups, when to flush your transmission and other useful information like that. 

There is a newer motor oil that you can use in your car that will last for five months or 5000 miles rather than the old 3 months or 3000 miles. 

Ya, it is more expensive, but it will save you hassle and money in the long run.
