    Did you just buy a new Dodge? If so, congratulations! You have purchased a car from one of America’s most storied car manufacturers. Naturally, you’d like to keep your new Dodge in pristine condition as along as possible. Thankfully, there are a number of things that you can do to keep your Dodge in tip-top condition. Here’s our list.

    Know Your Dodge

    All the operation details involved with using your new Dodge are covered by your owner’s manual. Typically they are stored in your glovebox but if you want one in electronic form, click here.

    Spend some time getting to know your Dodge by perusing your manual. You’ll want to locate the sections that contain information on your Dodge’s engine oil, tires, transmission, and more. If you have any questions about these specifications, contact your local Dodge dealership.

    Change Oil Regularly

    The fundamentals of any cars maintenance involve keeping your fluids topped off. At the top of this list is your Dodge’s oil supply. Every vehicle needs clean oil in order to operate efficiently and prevent engine damage. For your new Dodge, Roberts Dodge of Meridan, CT suggests you check your manual for its recommendations on frequency of oil changes. Your manual will also give you details on recommended types of oil, amount, and the filter itself.

    Maintain Tire Health

    No matter what set of tires you’ve got on your Dodge, get in the habit of scanning them for damage and wear. Its amazing how few people do this. Recognizing signs of tire distress early on can prevent problems down the road. Common signs of damage include any bulges, cuts, or gouges, in the tire treads. Especially pay attention to any signs of uneven tread wear on the surface of the tires themselves.

    You should make sure you get your Dodge’s wheels rotated and aligned at least once a year. Regular alignment and rotation ensures that your tires maintain even tread as they wear.

    Check your manual for the optimum tire pressure for your Dodge’s wheels. If you want to achieve the best gas mileage and keep the tires wearing evenly, check and top off your tire’s air pressure every month.

    Monitor Fluids

    Besides your Dodge’s oil, monitor the other critical fluids under the hood too. These include power steering, coolant, brake, and windshield washer fluid. Refer to your owner’s manual if you’re unclear about where these fluids are located.

    While you’re busy under the hood, do a quick scan of other engine parts. Check for any corrosion around your battery terminals, for example. Note any bulges or wear in rubber piping or tubing. Take your car to a mechanic if you see anything.

    Your Dodge Maintenance Plan

    At the end of the day, you will help your Dodge last a lot longer than usual if you are attentive. Inspect your vehicle on a weekly basis so that you can discover problems before they become damaged.

    • The Audi RS3 is one of two ultimate ‘mega hatches’, and probably the best of the breed. Its astonishing pace and theatrical engine combine with huge grip and more of a driver focus than previous generations. It’s also a brilliant daily.

Are you parting with R1.3m (or more) for one? Let us know in the comments below.

Are you parting with R1.3m (or more)?
    • Menacing Frozen Brooklyn Grey Metallic BMW M4 CSL sold by @bmwbryanston spotted in Linksfield recently by @thomasovitale 😎

Just 15 of these came into the country priced at R3.57m.

Would you prefer this or the freshly revealed M3 CS?

    • The BMW i4 M50 is quite possibly the best EV we have had the pleasure of testing.

It's superbly comfortable but at the simple touch of a button, it switches from tourer to tornado and you find yourself instantly doing speeds you should not be doing.

While not all EVs will have the same refinement or scintillating performance, this was both relaxing and thrilling to drive.

The Gran Coupé is a handsome car with a sense of sleek length and disguises its hatchback as a booted saloon rear end and that M Portimao Blue metallic paint certainly garnered a lot of positive attention.

Compared with the BMW iX it’s less of a show-stopper, but comes with a much more attractive price tag – and while the i4 is still quite the financial investment (R1,6m) we feel it gives you excellent value in return.

Yes, we did have a few charging issues (Eskom) and if you don't have a Wallbox charger at home filling up with petrol is MUCH easier. However, that being said if you’re looking for an outstanding driving experience both on the twisties and on the highway, this is definitely worth considering if you have decided to make the jump to the electric car.

    • The totally bonkers Ferrari 812 Competizione was spotted in Bryanston today by Brad Ainge.

It actually makes the F12tdf look quite tame in comparison. Which would you rather have?

Priced around R14m depending on spec.

    • Our time has come to an end with the most potent version of Mzansi’s favourite bakkie, the new Toyota Hilux GR-Sport.

The 2.8-litre turbo diesel powerplant has been tweaked to push out 165kW and 550 Nm thanks to an updated ECU which also responsible for the much needed revised mapping of the six-speed auto.

The sporty Hilux gets new monotube shocks as well as stiffer coil springs which make the bakkie a lot more settled at higher speed and provide great feedback on some of the twisty bits. If you don’t have a full load at the back however, you might find it a tad too stiff and rather twitchy for day to day driving. 

Inside you get a load of sporty touches including “carbon fibre” trim pieces but the highlight has to be the race inspired front seats complete with Alcantara inserts and some GR badging on the headrests. 

For the Hilux customers, this is a welcome addition to the range as the exterior and interior aesthetics align very neatly with the GR brand.

Yours from R891,400. Are you picking this or the Legend RS?
