When I had a mobike, I used to maintain it my self ever so thoroughly. I could strip and assemble the whole bike. It was a hobby. I enjoyed it.
But with my car, I have neither paitence nor time. I simply take it to the service station second saturday of every month (which is a holiday for us, but not for the dealer). And my car is in immaculate condition.

wow Shekhar that's impressive
here the craze among the youth is to personalize their cars...cutomized colour, fashionable interior, rims, huge exhust pipes, big tires, low riders, personalized license plates, vanity lights, stereo, tinted windows,
though i can't really blame the ppl...after i would do so too if i had the money to burn...just some rims and wicked azul...and then some 8)
there are actually rules against having all tinted windows in Malaysia (?) but not for the reduction of visibility from all the numerous stickers stuck on the windows?

Thiru & others
As far as I know, Oil and Oil filters needs to be changed every 1000 miles. Air filer may be changed every year.
Spark plugs need to be changed quite often as well.
I don't know if you all are aware, there is liquid you put in the petrol tank just before you put in petrol, this cleans the fuel injectors which gives a better and smooth performance as well as improving your fuel consumption

I would recommend checking the condition of the chassis (underside of body) every now & then...esp. during monsoons.....this is the part that is very prone to rusting and in case of extreme corrosion, can be difficult to repair. It can determine the bodily strength of the whole car.

I have no intention of digressing in this thread. But just found this news and was not sure where to post it. Hence I am doing it here.
The news in brief is Women are not permitted to drive in Saudi Arabia. A proposal to amend the bill is tabled in parliament and rejected.
