 I started with the fuild checks: oil, brake fuild, steering fuild, transmission, coolant, and battery water levels. From dip sticks to visually checking the levels, it was systematic and simple. Easy 10 minutes checks can tell a driver how much eth car has been used and if any other parts needs to be looked into.
