Just like humans,How to Care Autos of Different Ages? Articles automobiles also have life cycles. If auto owners do not care about the maintenance, auto aging will be accelerated. Please take good care of them in their "fatigue period".

The first two years of a new car can be called golden ages. Its performance and components are in peak.

Some auto parts, such as batteries, cooling fluid and brake pads, are likely to have malfunction and worn-out. You should not only keep daily maintenance, but also pay attention to shock absorbers. Usually, shock absorbers have a little oil leakage, but excessive oil leakage can speed up wornout of absorber parts and shorten service life.

Middle-age period
