Short Term Check-Ups
Oil And Coolant Levels
Checking your fluids, including oil and coolant, is an important part of car care, which lubricates and regulates your engine’s temperature, preventing overheating and long-term damage. Replace fluids regularly and use OEM-approved fluids to maintain your vehicle's protection and performance.
Air Filter
A clean air filter saves fuel costs for your vehicle and provides better performance. Regular cleaning ensures optimal airflow into the engine, improving combustion and overall driving performance.
Tire Pressure And Tread Depth
Your tires affect everything from safety to fuel economy, so checking your tire pressure and tread depth regularly will protect your wheels and your entire vehicle. Neglecting these checks can cause uneven wear, reduce grip, and compromise your vehicle's handling and braking performance.
Headlights, Turn Signals, Brake Lights, And Parking Lights
These lights are important for visibility and safety, so perform a quick check regularly to make sure they're working properly. Also, clean your headlights, turn signals, brake lights, and parking lights to prevent a buildup of dirt that can reduce visibility.
Oil & Filter
Regular oil and filter changes are the cornerstone of routine maintenance and engine health. As old oil accumulates, sludge builds up and causes engine damage. Regular changes keep the engine clean, efficient, and long-lasting.
Rotate Tires
Rotating your tires will prolong tire life and promote even wear. It is a method of protecting your wheels and side panels by ensuring consistent pressure and performance.
Wax Vehicle
Polishing enhances the appearance of your car while protecting the paint. You may consider regular car polishing for complete car care and protection, giving your car a shiny, like-new look.
Long Term Check-Ups
Transmission Fluid
Transmission fluid affects the way your car shifts; old fluid can cause jerky driving or complete failure. Check and replace your fluid to protect the performance and longevity of your car.
Transfer Case Fluid
This is essential for AWD or 4WD vehicles to regulate power between the front and rear wheels and protect important transmission components. Transferring case fluid helps your system run smoother and more efficiently.
Inspect Shocks And Struts
Periodically inspect shocks and struts to ensure effective operation and avoid rust or damage that can make your vehicle bumpy and unsafe.
Coolant Fluid Exchange
Over time, the coolant loses its effectiveness. Replacing the coolant helps protect the system from overheating and freezing. This service fits into both routine maintenance and protective measures.
Spark Plugs
Old spark plugs will cause poor starting, poor mileage, and sluggish performance. Replacing them will improve engine ignition and overall maintenance on vehicles.
Serpentine Belt
The drive belt powers many accessories. If it breaks, you're stuck. Check it regularly for wear before it becomes a major problem.
Front And/Or Rear Differential
Your differential helps transfer power from the engine to the wheels. Maintenance intervals vary, but they are vital to the health of your drivetrain and the protection of your vehicle.
Seasonal Check-Ups
Replace Windshield Wipers
If your wipers are squeaky or streaked, it's time to replace them. They are essential to visibility, especially in rain or snow. Clean windows and a clear windshield reduce the likelihood of fogging up your windows and improve safety.
Battery Performance Check
Cold weather can leach the energy from your battery. Have your battery tested before winter and change the battery if necessary. This is responsible car maintenance and will prevent you from being stuck on the side of the road.
Change Tires (Seasonal Or Worn)
If you are in a transitional season, you can switch your tires from summer to winter when the average temperature drops below 45°F. You should also regularly check your tires and replace them if they are worn to ensure traction and driving safety.
Check Coolant Levels
Coolant protects your engine from overheating or freezing. Change your coolant with the changing seasons to protect your car and keep your pipes running efficiently.
