AUTOCARE TIPS
Proper tire pressure improves fuel efficiency, extends tire life, and ensures safe handling. Check your tires once a month (including the spare) using a pressure gauge, and inflate them according to your vehicle’s recommended PSI—usually found on the driver’s door sticker.
A blinking or solid check engine light shouldn’t be ignored. It could be something minor—or a warning of a serious issue. Bring your car in for diagnostics as soon as possible to prevent further damage and avoid costly repairs.
Oil lubricates your engine and prevents overheating. Skipping oil changes leads to sludge buildup and engine wear. Follow your manufacturer’s recommendations or get an oil change every 3,000–5,000 miles for optimal performance.
Oil is the lifeblood of your engine. Without clean, sufficient oil, your engine parts can wear down quickly and overheat. Make it a habit to check your oil level every few weeks and get an oil change every 5,000 to 7,500 km (or as recommended by your vehicle’s manufacturer). At Karki’s Garage, we offer quick oil changes and top-quality filters to keep your car running smoothly.
Under-inflated or over-inflated tires can lead to poor fuel economy, uneven wear, and even dangerous blowouts. Check your tire pressure at least once a month—especially during seasonal changes—and make sure it matches your car’s recommended PSI. Need help?

Your dashboard lights are like your car’s way of waving a red flag. If your check engine, oil pressure, or battery light comes on, it’s best to get it looked at right away. Ignoring these warnings can lead to expensive repairs or leave you stranded. Karki’s Garage can quickly diagnose and fix the issue before it gets worse.
Brakes are your car’s most important safety system. If you hear squeaking, grinding, or feel vibrations when braking, it’s time for a check-up. These sounds can indicate worn brake pads, rotor damage, or air in the brake lines. Our brake specialists at Karki’s Garage are here to keep your stopping power sharp and safe.
A dead battery is one of the most common causes of car breakdowns. Cold weather, corrosion, and old age can all reduce your battery’s life. Have your battery tested at least twice a year—especially before winter. Karki’s Garage provides fast battery checks and affordable replacements to keep you on the road.
Your car relies on more than just oil. Coolant, brake fluid, transmission fluid, and windshield washer fluid all play crucial roles. Low or dirty fluids can lead to engine damage, poor performance, and safety issues. Visit Karki’s Garage for a full fluid check and top-up service to keep your car healthy.
Regular service keeps your car in top condition and catches problems early. From oil changes and filter replacements to full tune-ups, keeping up with your maintenance schedule will extend your vehicle’s life and save money in the long run. Trust Karki’s Garage for honest, expert care that keeps you moving.
