Other Replacements and Maintenance

Other important components and parts of your vehicle and engine that need regular maintenance and infrequent replacement include the following:

air filter
headlight, turn signals, and brake lamps
spark plugs and cables

Some basic car care starts with examining the exterior. Check your tires at least every other week to make sure they are inflated properly. This should be an actual check with a tire pressure gauge, but you may also advantage from a visual check to make sure the tires appear equally and properly inflated.

Other visual checks that require almost no vehicle mechanics knowledge include the following:

body and bumper damage, which should be monitored for insurance purposes
leaking fluids underneath the vehicle, including oil, power and brake fluid, transmission or other fluid (air-conditioning may cause water to drip under a vehicle)
smoke in vehicle exhaust, aside from normal diesel emissions or startup fumes
engine or fluid warning lights, which should be promptly addressed before any further driving

Tips for replacing ball joints
The rubber boot is the most important component, as it protects the ball stud. If it’s damaged, the entire ball joint should be replaced. When you replace a ball joint, all of the ball joints should be replaced at once (right, left, upper and lower). This is because they have the same age, mileage and wear.
