How to get better mileage in a car is a question in everyone's mind. By paying attention to small things, we can improve mileage. These 4 tips will be useful for better mileage of petrol, diesel and V-fuel cars

• Air intake

The car should have a constant supply of air. For this it is most important that you keep checking the air filter. Although we should change the air filter in every general servicing, but it would be a good habit to open the air filter box every 30 to 45 days and remove the dust from the filter. We should also check that the air intake duct / intake plumbing is not choked. All cars coming these days have MAF (Mass Air Flow Sensor) as well. If the air filter is dirty, dust can also enter it and choke the sensor. You can clean it yourself or take the help of someone knowledgeable about cars or a local mechanic. But do get it cleaned every six months.

• Oil Change & Servicing

We must always ensure 100% timely and quality engine oil change as it plays a vital role in the life of the engine. If the performance of the engine is good then the mileage will also be better. So never think of getting the engine oil replaced with other tasks during servicing. Old oil can cause a lot of damage to the engine. There are two types of engine oil. One semi synthetic and the other synthetic semi thethetic oil should be changed at 6 months or 5000 kms (whichever is earlier) and synthetic oil at 12 months or 10000 kms (whichever is completed first).

• Air Pressure & Alignment

Make it a habit to always check the air pressure in the tyres. The recommended tire pressure will be found on a small sticker near the driver's side door. It would be better to get the air pressure checked only with the digital machine available at the petrol pump and also try to use the machine of the same station every time. An easy trick to increase the mileage of a car is to inflate each tire 2-3 points (PSI) more than its maximum capacity, however, keep in mind that this trick should be tried only on those tires whose life is more than 40% left. . Apart from this, make a habit of getting the alignment of the car done every six months.

● overloading in car

Car weight matters in mileage. So remove the unnecessary weight kept in the car. Similarly, don't drive the car with as full a tank as possible, as that would mean you are carrying more weight. (Similarly, do not run the car with very less fuel. Due to this, soot or (rust) can come in the lower part of the tank. So if you are driving the car in your city, then fill only 50 percent of the tank capacity. And when the needle falls below 25 percent, fill it again. If you are driving a car with glass up, then maintain it only. Keep the
