Replace other filters air, fuel, PCV, etc. Get engine drivability problems hard stops, rough idling, stalling, diminished power, etc. A dirty windshield causes eye fatigue and can pose a safety hazard. Replace worn blades and get plenty of windshield washer solvent. Have your tires rotated about every 5, miles.
Check tire pressures once a month; let the tires cool down first. Don't forget your spare and be sure your jack is in good condition. Check your owner's manual to find out what fuel octane rating your car's engine needs then buy it.
Keep your tires inflated to the proper levels. Under-inflated tires make it harder for your car to move down the road, which means your engine uses more fuel to maintain speed.
Lighten the load. Heavier vehicles use more fuel, so clean out unnecessary weight in the passenger compartment or trunk before you hit the road. The air conditioner puts extra load on the engine forcing more fuel to be used. Keep your windows closed. Avoid long idling. If you anticipate being stopped for more than one minute, shut off the car.
Contrary to popular belief, restarting the car uses less fuel than letting it idle. Stay within posted speed limits. The faster you drive, the more fuel you use. For example, driving at 65 miles per hour mph rather than 55 mph, increases fuel consumption by 20 percent.
Use cruise control. Using cruise control on highway trips can help you maintain a constant speed and, in most cases, reduce your fuel consumption. Keep your engine tuned.
The wheel studs are permanently mounted on the wheel hub through the brake disk or brake drum. To secure the wheel, nuts lug nuts are fastened over the stud. Stripped wheel studs can be quite dangerous. Damaged wheel studs should be replaced with new ones immediately.
A wheel nut or lug nut is a fastener for securing a wheel on the hub. A set of lug nuts are used to secure a wheel to the threaded wheel studs which are fixed to a wheel hub. Worn out nuts means one thing - the wheel is not fixed securely on the vehicle which puts the vehicle at the risk of rolling over.
Most Extended Warranties Accepted An extended warranty also known as a service contract can provide peace of mind to most car buyers. The warranty or service contract kicks in after the usual manufacturer warranty has expired. An extended warranty covers major breakdowns and evens out the cost of repairs. Unfortunately, not all auto repair shops accept extended warranties.
We let you use the service contract to save on auto repair costs. Pre-Purchase Inspections Are you planning to buy a new car?

Although this is an extreme scenario, it does happen in heavy braking.
To reduce the effects of the absorbed moisture, auto manufacturers recommend that you have a brake flush done periodically. A brake system flush involves the replacement of used and contaminated fluid with fresh fluid.
Coolant System Flush A car's air conditioning system contains a coolant which transfers excess heat from one part of the engine and finally loses it through the radiator fins. The old coolant will negatively impact the system's performance. To make sure the system is working effectively, consider having a regular coolant system flush. A coolant flush is basic maintenance for your car's cooling system. Ensure maximum performance from your vehicle's heating and cooling systems today.
Differential Flush The differential is a car part that compensates for the difference in travel distance between the inner wheels and outer wheels when the vehicle is turning. Due to the differential's position in most non-four-wheel-drive FWD vehicles located at the rear and under the car , it does not get any of the star treatment the engine gets.
The one thing that every car owner needs to know is that failure of the differential will mean failure of the car. To save the differential from failure, you need to have differential fluid changed every 30, to 50, miles. Changing the oil on the differential is as important as changing the car's engine oil. Although checking and changing differential oil is pretty easy, you need to visit an auto shop to get a comprehensive differential flush.
Fuel Injection Cleaning A fuel injector is an electronically controlled valve that supplies the engine with pressurized fuel. When driving, the oxygen sensors tell the engine if it is getting too much air, which signals the fuel injectors to give the engine spurts of pressurized fuel.
Since fuel injectors are small pieces of equipment and the part that squirts the fuel is even smaller , any little piece of dirt can clog it. A clogged fuel injector will hurt your vehicle's performance. To avoid misfires, poor emission rating, poor performance, and rough idle have the car's fuel injectors cleaned regularly.
