Engine Maintenance

Before you take off, make sure your engine is properly lubricating its moving parts by scheduling an oil change. This will also ensure your fuel economy is not compromised and you’re limiting the amount of time you’re spending at the pump instead of on the road. With every engine oil change, you should check the oil filter and make sure it’s not full of gunk and buildup from your previous service. Also, with the mercury dropping rapidly as the weather cools, you should consider checking the coolant levels of your auto as well as the antifreeze that you have. This will keep your motor regulated and allow it to properly heat up even when it’s below freezing outside.

Tires

If your unit is equipped with summer components, don’t leave the house with the improper tires. These items do not have the proper traction to get you out of slippery situations and can be a factor in a potential accident. If you do have all-season wheels installed, visit our location to check the tread of the wheels and if need be, participate in a tire rotation. This will allow you to get the most life out of them so you’re not spending more than you need to. If you do need to replace them, our Tire Center is happy to order the necessary components, and our Service Department staff members will replace them for you. 

Battery

Getting caught away from home with a faulty battery can be dangerous. Check your battery’s charge levels and partake in a replacement before you embark on any trips up and down Walney Road. This power component is what will provide the spark necessary to ignite your engine to run. If your battery is not holding the correct charge level or is compromised in any way, you may run into an unfortunate instance where you may be stranded on the road until you receive assistance.
