How do you take extremely good care of your car?

2nd Commander asked: Tell me like everything.

All the dos and don’ts. Like how even the hot sun might damage it? If I drive a black car.

Like all the air filters and transmission flushes and this and that. What are the stuff I should do and the ones I must.

Also give me the don’ts that I might not otherwise notice.
to be exact it’s the 2008 dodge avenger SE, and it’s automatic.

    Look in your manual for the recommended service schedule. Follow the one marked “severe” and you’ll get 200K out of it easily. Let me know if you don’t have a manual and I’ll send you a list.
    PS-the sun won’t normally damage a finish, but waxing twice a year is an excellent idea.

    check you fluids every other week. Be aware of any odd noises. When you go somewhere keep an eye underneath the car when you get back to make sure there are no oil stains and other fluids. If there is pop the hood. Sometimes the coolant boiled over or the condenser just sweats. Once in a while crawl under the car to check for leaks. Just make sure the car is not real hot.

    google basic car care. Keep checkin the fluids.

    Follow routing maintenance
    Drive it nicely
    Don’t abuse it
    Wash it regularly: Once or twice every two weeks
    Polish and wax at least three times a year
    Clean brake dust off early
    Vacuum the interior and clean spots and stains early on
    Store in garage or park in shade
    Don’t idle the car for long periods of time
    Don’t over rev the engine
    Avoid jackrabbit starts
    Using common sense takes you a long way.
