If you want your car to run smoothly without giving you much trouble you would need to pay attention to it. Regularly servicing your car is an important habit to increase the longevity of your car. One aspect of your car that needs monitoring is fluid levels. CarSwitch.com has put together the essential list for you below.<\/span><!--more--><\/p>\n<p><b>Engine Oil:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> First and foremost is the engine oil which can be monitored by inspecting the dipstick. It should be at a prescribed level, if you feel it is dropping below the recommended level than check your owner&#8217;s manual and bring it to the required level. It is also important to periodically get your engine oil changed. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Coolant:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&nbsp;Located up front near the radiator is the reservoir where coolant needs to be added. Make sure that the car has completely cooled down so scalding water is not sprayed out when you open the lid. Make sure to buy the right kind of antifreeze to act as coolant as using water is not advisable in the radiator or the reservoir. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Brake fluid:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Any issue with the brake line could lead to leakage of brake fluid. It is not only important to refill the brake fluid to the recommended level, but also to get the car checked and identify the source of leakage.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Transmission fluid: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Transmission oil can be checked with a dipstick located under the hood of the car. Pull it out and wipe it clean. Then push the stick back and take the reading on the stick. Refer to your owner&#8217;s manual for filling the fluid to the correct level and make sure to get transmission fluid changed after&nbsp; a certain mileage in order to make sure that your <\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/65.1.85.58\/newsroom\/dubai-faulty-car-transmission-system\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">car&#8217;s transmission system does not become faulty<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now that you know what types of fluids go in a car &nbsp;you may be feeling more confident of <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/carswitch.com\/uae\/used-cars\/search\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">buying a car in Dubai<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, and feeling ready to take care of it.
