When you bring your vehicle in for service, one of the things our technicians will do is check your filters and fluids. These are two of the most important components of your vehicle, and keeping them well-maintained is crucial to keeping your car running smoothly. Our technicians are the best in town to help maintain what keeps your car running as expected. Here’s a quick overview of what we do when we service your filters and fluids.
Filters
There are three main types of filters in your vehicle-air, oil, and fuel. The air filter keeps contaminants out of the engine, while the oil and fuel filters keep those same contaminants from clogging up your engine’s moving parts. Over time, filters can become clogged with dirt and debris, which reduces their efficiency. That’s why it’s important to have them checked and replaced regularly.
Fluids
Fluids are just as important as filters-maybe even more so. Your car has a variety of fluids that all play vital roles in keeping the engine running smoothly. There’s engine oil, which lubricates the moving parts; transmission fluid, which keeps the gears shifting smoothly; coolant, which prevents the engine from overheating; windshield wiper fluid, which helps you see in bad weather; and power steering fluid, which makes it easier to turn the wheel. Like filters, these fluids need to be checked regularly and replaced when necessary.
As you can see, filter and fluid maintenance is crucial to keeping your vehicle running properly. Our technicians are experts at servicing both filters and fluids, so you can rest assured that your car is in good hands.
