car tyres: how often to check for pressure?

thanks dudes....and ladies...
For your battery, first ascertain if it is a GEL or Battery water type. If it is a GEL, it should be maintenance free, replace it once in about 2 years. If it is the battery water type, check level of battery water once every month, top if if require....battery water very cheap one. For battery Water types, replace every year.
Car Tyres, check for pressure once every two weeks when tyres are COLD. Try not to drive more than 5km on a sedate pace to the nearest petrol station.
It will be good to monitor the engine oil level, the auto-transmission level once every week. Check brake fluid and steering fluid levels once every week too.
For me I usually do all this on a Sunday.
