Cultus maintenance guide

Regular maintenance is crucial to keep any vehicle running smoothly and to extend its lifespan. Here is a comprehensive maintenance guide for your Suzuki Cultus:

1. Change the engine oil and filter every 5,000 kilometres or three months, whichever comes first. Use the recommended grade of oil and check the oil level regularly.
2. Use a certified cleaner to clean the throttle at every oil change.
3. It’s unnecessary to replace the air filter every 10,000 kilometres, as most mechanics insist. This of it as a dusting cloth. If you keep it clean, it lasts you longer. Replace the air filter once you notice degradation immediately, however.
4. Remove all spark plugs and clean the tips and the valves after every three months. Replace them if corroded.
5. Check the tire pressure regularly and rotate the tires every 10,000 kilometres to ensure even wear.
6. Inspect the brakes every 10,000 kilometres for signs of wear and replace the brake pads and rotors as needed.
7. Check the battery terminals for corrosion and ensure the battery is adequately secured. Check the water level in the storm, as that is the key to its health. Replace the battery every four years or as needed.
8. Check the coolant level and condition regularly and flush the system every 40,000 kilometres.
9. Replace the transmission fluid every 60,000 kilometres.
10. Replace the power steering fluid every 50,000 kilometres.
11. Replace the timing belt every 100,000 kilometres.
