You wonder why you have to maintain your vehicle's engine fluids and brake systems on a regular basis, and wonder why you just can't put it off until you do a tune up, and then have all of the items taken care of at one time. That sounds like a good system, but when you check the particulars, you will find it's not a good idea at all.
Oil breaks down over time, and when it does, it is no longer able to coat the moving parts of your engine. The additives in oil break down, and they are the cleaners that keep your engine clean. When these break down, you have a dirty engine. Your engine oil will not wait for you to decide to have a tune up. Your auto manufacturer has determined when you need to perform certain types of maintenance in regard to your vehicle, and you need to abide by that schedule. This keeps your warranty valid, and also keeps your car running smoothly and efficiently.
