Your vehicle manufacturer publishes two
auto maintenance schedules. The regular schedule and the severe service schedule. It’d be wrong for us to tell you that everyone in Concord always needs to follow the severe service schedule – but its wishful thinking to say that the regular schedule is always good enough for your car.
At D&H Enterprises we’ll give you the definitions and explain the issues, and you can be the judge. Most manufactures list the following as
severe conditions:
- Most of your trips are less than four miles.
- Most of your trips are less than 10 miles and outside temperatures are below freezing.
- The engine is at low speed most of the time – not on the highway.
- You operate your vehicle in dusty areas.
- You regularly tow a trailer or carry heavy loads.
- Driving in very hot or very cold weather.
So think about your typical week. Do you live a block from a CA freeway on-ramp and enjoy a non-stop commute to work in Walnut Creek or Pleasant Hill? Or are you like the rest of us where 90% of our trips are on the severe service list?
