Tips to maintain your Tata Altroz
Every car requires regular maintenance to ensure that your safety and the car’s performance are never compromised. The Tata Altroz is no different. Here are some maintenance tips and tricks that can keep your Tata Altoz in peak condition.
Driving habits
One of the key factors that influences car health is your driving habits. If you are a driver who enjoys speeding and tends to be a bit too heavy-footed with the accelerator, chances are you are decreasing your Tata Altroz’s performance and longevity. Be gentle with your car and see your maintenance bills go down.
- Warm up the engine and bring it to a suitable temperature before accelerating, especially during the winter months.
- Speeding, hard acceleration, and sudden braking can cause significant damage to your Tata Altroz. Avoid these actions to extend the life of the engine, tyres and brakes.
- Avoid potholes, as they damage the suspension. If you hear any unusual noise when hitting a bump or feel vibrations during steering, have the suspension checked at the service centre immediately.
Exterior care
Keeping your Tata Altroz in mint condition on the outside can lead to substantially lower repair costs. How, you may ask? This is because the paint job on the car is not there just for vanity’s sake but actually serves to protect the car.
- Scratches and dents must be repaired immediately. Allowing them to fester will lead to corrosion, which can be more expensive to repair.
- Wash and polish your Tata Altroz regularly to maintain its appearance. Driving in urban areas with dust and pollution can increase the risk of corrosion if your car is not properly maintained.
- Find a good parking spot for your car. A dedicated garage with good ventilation and a dry environment can increase the longevity of your car’s paint job.
- If a covered parking space is not an option, consider a car cover that can protect the car from the elements.
- Check tyre pressure regularly. Fill them as needed for your safety and to maintain the fuel efficiency of your Tata Altroz.
Interior care
Showing your Tata Altroz’s interiors some love and care can go a long way. Getting the interiors redone can be an expensive affair, but it can be avoided if they are cared for properly.
- Vacuum the interiors periodically. Wipe down the hard surfaces and the windows using car-friendly cleaning agents.
- Use floor mats and seat covers to protect the interior of your Tata Altroz. Clean these accessories regularly and replace them when they show signs of wear.
- Avoid eating inside your car, as getting rid of food spillage can be a costly affair. In the event of a spill, attend to it promptly before it dries and ventilate the car to eliminate the odour.
- Smoking inside the car must also be avoided.
- Regularly check your car’s electrical components. If they malfunction, get them fixed at the service centre.
Service Schedule
Tata Motors has recommended a service schedule for the Tata Altroz. Following this service schedule to the letter can help you prevent certain problems from causing significant damage down the line.
- Engine oil levels should be monitored periodically. It should be changed as per the service schedule. Depending on usage, engine oil levels can drop before the scheduled service, and this issue must be addressed immediately.
- Use high-quality fuel for your Tata Altroz and follow the manufacturer’s recommendations.
- Another way to achieve fuel efficiency is to regularly check and change the air filter.
- Always opt for OEM parts even if they are more expensive than aftermarket ones. While aftermarket parts may be a more cost-effective option, they will not offer the same fit or quality as OEM parts.
- Brakes can bear the brunt of your driving. Have them checked for wear and tear regularly and replace them immediately if they are worn out.
- The same applies to fluids/oils. Have them changed in a timely manner to maintain optimal engine health.
