Today’s front-wheel-drive vehicles cause the steer tires to wear at a much faster rate than the tires on the rear axle. By periodically rotating the front tires to the back and the back tires to the front, motorists can achieve even treadwear on all four tires and increase the mileage and performance.

Scrub-a-dub-dub! Nothing shows your love more than a caressing cleaning for your car. Give your four-wheeled friend a professional detailing, and don’t skip out on the extras, a little vacuuming goes a long way.
Spark plugs can last a long time in today’s vehicles, but if diagnostics say one or more need replacing then it’s time to replace them all. This may also require replacing ignition coils as well. Check with our service writer if your car is running rough, so we can do the proper diagnostic tests.
Many of the techniques used in Winter driving can also give your vehicle better fuel mileage. Avoid jackrabbit starts, ease in and out of the throttle, drive at a reduced speed, and leave plenty of room for stopping. You may be surprised at how much you can save!
Hoses, a water pump, thermostat, radiator, heater core and more make up your engines cooling system. It’s normal for some items to wear over time, so if you see any leaks or smell coolant, you may have a leak that could lead to a major failure. Let us inspect your cooling system before it leaves you stranded in the cold!
Your transmission is designed to give thousands of miles of trouble-free service. But, many transmissions today are operated by computers and electronic servos, which can fail without warning. At the first hint of a drivability problem, come in and let us diagnose the issues. It might be a very inexpensive fix!
You might notice your vehicle has very little power when a red Check Engine light come on. This is a built-in limp home-mode that allows your car to get home or to get to us before major damage is done. As soon as you notice it, BRING IT IN!
Colder temperatures can require a different viscosity oil for best engine operation. When you come see us for your next oil change, we’ll make the right adjustment based on your manufacturer’s recommendation. And of course we’ll check your other fluids, too!
Your climate control system uses a freon gas to cool the outside air and keep you chilled. In the Winter, it dries the air so your defroster can work properly. If it wasn’t working properly in the Summer, you’ll notice it now, too. Come in anytime for an inspection and estimate for your broken climate control system.
Save time and money over this next year by having a maintenance program for your vehicle. With regular service and inspections, you won’t be surprised by catastrophic breakdowns that could cause your family to be stranded...or in an accident. Talk to us today about a Maintenance Plan for your car!
