Stickers are for those who are not car guys and are not attuned to maintenance


I do that as well, along with recording the same information in an Excel spreadsheet. On the oil changes I do for others I use the window stickers if they want them.

Pennzoil and AutoZone are good sources for free stickers. I prefer the stickers with the adhesive on the back. You can purchase that type, with your name imprinted on them, off of eBay.

The free ones that Advance Auto has near the oils.

I despise any sort of a "sticker" on my windows (or anywhere else on a vehicle).

I simply change it twice a year, spring and fall. My mileage is recorded in the car care database on my computer, and that usually puts me at 6,000-7,000 mileage intervals for the cars that are driven daily. If I'm a few miles over or under it's not an issue and not something I obsess about.

The pickup only gets driven 2,000 a year or so, it only gets changed once a year.

I use the free stickers from Advance! Can't complain since they're free and do the job. I also use my Trip B odometer for my OCI

 

[Quattro Pete]

I write down time/mileage for all my vehicles on a whiteboard in the garage. I also have them recorded in Excel, just in case someone decides to wipe my whiteboard.

trip counter in car works well for me

Whats wrong with using the service log book in the glove box ?

I use these from WIX I also have Napa stickers that are identical my main source of tracking is an automotive excel sheet but I like the stickers on my vehicle because I am an oil guy and it is a quick reference.

I, too, have a paperless office.


That's the way I work it.

 

[Chris142]

I use a strip of masking tape that I wrote on and stuck under the hood.

 

[tom slick]

I use mileage multiples of the OCI, i.e. OCI = 5k miles so 55k, 60k, 65k...

I write all of the maintenance in a log that I keep in the glove box.

 

[salesmantony]

I don't bother with stickers, just use the trip odometer and my "head".

 

[Jakegday]

i write it down on a little piece of scratch paper and put it in the envelope with the cars registration and proof of insurance.

 

[TFB1]

I just write it on the wall in the garage, get another car, paint over it and start again...

 

[OldCowboy]

Trip odometer for one and the OLM for the other.

I also put trans changes on it and at the bottom under each car i put the oil filter numbers. I can go to the garage and see where each car was changed and make a list of filters i need before i go to the store.

My brother in-law do the same for his 5 cars.

I used to do that, but whenever my mom drove the car there was a chance that it would get reset accidentally since digital tripmeters still confuse her.

 

[The_Eric]

Trip "B" for me too and a parts master sticker for the wife since she only has a mechanical trip odo that goes to 999. Also record all maintenance on a spreadsheet.
