Question 1

What is E10 fuel?

Accepted Answer

E10 is a mixture of conventional unleaded petrol and ethanol. E10 means it is 90 per cent petrol and 10 per cent ethanol. Most modern cars (those with fuel injection instead of carburettors) can use E10. You can check if you car is capable of running on E10 by consulting the owner's manual.

Question 2

How do I check my oil?

Accepted Answer

First, make sure the engine is turned off. Open the bonnet and look for the engine oil dipstick. It's normally coloured yellow or orange, and might have a loop at the top.

Pull the dipstick all the way out, and wipe it clean using a paper towel or clean rag, then put it back into the engine, wait a few seconds, and pull it out again.

Now look at where the oil level is on the dipstick.

Question 3

How often should I change my wiper blades?

Accepted Answer

For vehicles that are parked inside, car care experts recommend that the wiper blades be replaced at least once a year or when the wiper blades start streaking, whichever comes first. On vehicles kept outside or in areas where the wipers received excessive use, changing the blades two or even three times a year is recommended for clearer vision.

Question 4

What can I do if my car overheats?

Accepted Answer

Shut off the engine, open the hood and let the engine cool down for a minimum of 20 minutes. Once any overboiling stops and the engine has cooled, look for obvious signs of trouble. If there is no noticeable problem such as a broken drive belt or burst hose, you can then add a coolant/water mixture to the radiator or overflow reservoir, then start the vehicle and drive slowly to a service centre.

Question 5

Why are my brakes making a noise?

Accepted Answer

If you hear a grinding or squealing sound when the pedal is applied, you may need new brake shoes or pads. Brakes shouldn't make any noise as they operate. Even if the actual problem turns out to be minor, always put safety first. If your brakes are making a noise, get them professionally inspected right away.

Question 6

Do I need to take my car to the dealer for regular maintenance work in order to maintain my warranty?

Accepted Answer

No, you don't. However, it is important to ensure that any servicing is carried out by qualified staff, according to the manufacturer's specification, and that appropriate quality parts are used. If a non-genuine part is used it won't be covered under the manufacturer's warranty, but it would be covered under the warranty of the part's supplier and/or Australian Consumer Law.
