Modern motor oils contain additives to combat acid build up in the oil. As oil becomes contaminated and turns acidic, the additives get used up. Preventing acid buildup is a very big reason for changing motor oil regularly. Short trip driving is the worst kind of driving for this problem, as moisture is not boiled off during driving cycles.
Did you know that today’s oil filters perform better than ever before? Newer high efficiency filters have the ability to filter out over 70 to 90 percent of the smallest particles which can eventually contaminate oil and lead to increased engine wear and tear.
If your car is sputtering and hesitating during acceleration, the most common cause is a dirty fuel filter. This is especially true if you've recently bought gas from a smaller, off-brand gas station that may have issues with dirt in the fuel tanks. Although it could be a different problem, replacing your oil filter is quick and cheap.
A differential is a key part of any modern car, but what is it? If you look under your car, you should see a round metal bump in the middle of your axle. That's it. It allows your wheels to turn at two different speeds while cornering, which gives you better handling.
When you don’t live close to the dealership where you bought your car, it can be a time-consuming pain to drive all the way out there whenever your car needs regular maintenance. Whether you need a simple oil change or other maintenance performed, we’re always here to help.
One way to improve the value of your car if you believe you will be selling it down the road is to change the oil according to the owner’s manual recommendations, but also keep a record of each change. When a prospective buyer can access this information, you are more likely to get your asking price.
