MAINTENANCE

 

-It is advised that OIL CHANGES take place every 3,000-5,000 miles to avoid engine wear and maintain oil free from debris; for your vehicle's particular mileage always consult your owners manual or ask one of our mechanics.

-An unclean AIR FILTER can trigger complications with fuel economy, efficiency, discharges and may sometimes result in added engine repair it is suggested that they be checked every 12,000 miles or with every OIL CHANGE.

-A BELT that becomes worn can easily slide or also come to be so slack that it may not operate properly.  A damaged HOSE could result in vital fluids leaking from your engine and can induce harm to engine parts. To stop some of one of the most usual sources of breakdown, ensure your BELTS and HOSES are checked every 3,000 miles or with every OIL CHANGE.

-WIPER FLUID should be examined and topped off on a FREQUENT basis to prevent any unforeseen climate changes.

-With typical WIPER BLADE use, frequently examine the blades, replacing them at least ONCE a year or on an AS NEEDED basis.

TIRE
 

-The lifespan and mileage of a tire depends of a combination of factors: its design, the driver’s habits, the climate, the road conditions and the care that's put into the tires. After FIVE years or more in use, your tires should be thoroughly inspected at least once per year by a professional.

-During a TIRE ROTATION, each tire and wheel is removed from your vehicle and moved to a different position to ensure that all tires wear evenly and last longer. Tires should be rotated every SIX months or 6,000 to 8,000 miles.

-Tires are balanced when you replace 2 or 4 tires on your vehicle. Out of BALANCE tires could bring about unequal wear, vibration and potentially hazardous driving performance. It is necessary to balance tires every 4,000 to 6,000 miles.

BRAKE REPAIR
 

- Depending on your car’s brake system, it may use between 4-8 BRAKE PADS. When you step on the brake pedal, the MASTER CYLINDER sends fluid under pressure to the brake CALIPERS (which hold the brake pads). The caliper presses the brake pad against the brake ROTOR, causing friction that slows down the car. During normal usage of the brakes, brake pads wear out and become thinner. If the thickness of brake pads is less than 3mm, it is time to change the pads. Depending on where you drive (city driving tends to wear pads out quicker) brake pads usually last between 30,000-100,00 miles depending on the quality of the BRAKE PADS.

CHECK ENGINE LIGHT
 

- The Check Engine light location and color will vary by vehicle, but in most cases it is a dashboard warning light that is yellow and shaped like an engine. It may or may not have the word “check” integrated into the design. 

- This indicator is part of the onboard diagnostics (OBD-II) system and in all cases it indicates a problem with your emissions system. Basically, it is an emissions monitoring system. A Check Engine indictor will stay SOLID OR BLINK.

  • If the INDICTOR IS BLINKING, the situation is usually serious, such as a severe misfiring of the engine. This would allow unburned fuel to dump into the exhaust system, pushing the temperature of your catalytic converter to the breaking point. Slow the car down, find a safe place to stop, and request a mechanic to perform a diagnosis. 

  • A STEADY LIGHT on the other hand is not an emergency situation. You can continue driving, but you should schedule an appointment with a mechanic as soon as possible.
