What

Think of a tune-up as a perfect combination of preventive maintenance services and minor repairs that refresh and reset the mechanical condition of your car. Each automaker has a suggested schedule that you’ll find in your owner’s manual. For older automobiles that don’t have electronic ignitions, the interval is often 10,000-12,000 miles. New models, however, typically have a much longer recommended interval, ranging from 25,000-100,000 miles. Sticking to the schedule or having us perform the service sooner if you notice a problem is important for optimizing performance and getting the longest life from your engine. A tune-up includes a repeat of periodic maintenance points such as an oil/filter change, fluid services, and visual inspection of parts that commonly exhibit wear. Additionally, it includes less frequently needed minor work like cleaning or replacing spark plugs, exchanging the air filter, installing a new fuel filter, and checking/changing spark plug wires. Also, most vehicles will need a new oxygen sensor and positive crankcase ventilation (PCV) valve. Brakes are checked, too, with pads being replaced if they are at or near the minimum safe thickness for use. Even if your automobile has not yet reached the mileage mark specified by the manufacturer, bring it in for a service visit if you notice a sign that could indicate the need for a tune-up. These include difficulty starting your car, illuminated dashboard lights such as the check engine lamp, a reduction in fuel mileage, and increased braking distances.
