Make a Date for Halloween…An Auto Repair Date.

Posted by admin 1 comments

Many
of us wash our cars on a regular basis. Many of us are great about
getting the oil changes. But what about everything else under the hood? Not knowing is a scary
feeling. Why not use that feeling as a reminder to do an annual
check-up…..on Halloween.

How to Give Your Car a Check-Up

No
matter where you live or where you go, the changing of seasons is
always a good time to give your car a physical. Some experts say
Halloween is the best time for everyone – it’s before any holiday road
trips, after the hot summer and most importantly, it’s a date we can
all remember.

Think of your mechanic
as a doctor. Any concerns with the car? Have your list and show your
mechanic what you want checked. Remember, you’re the patient. Ask
questions.

Tires: Pressure and Rotation

You should be checking your tire pressure once a month. Most of us
don’t, so have your tires checked properly. You may need to rotate or
replace them. Check the spare tire, too.

Oil: Switch to Synthetic

To prevent engine wear, have the oil and oil filter changed. You may
want to switch to synthetic oil, if you’re not using it already, to
help your car operate more efficiently.

Cooling System: Flush and Refill

The cooling system (radiator) should be checked for leaks and low
levels. Additionally, it should be flushed and refilled as recommended
in the owner’s manual. No matter where you live, have the antifreeze
checked as well.

Full Engine Tune-up: Systems and Fluid Levels

A tune-up will correct engine problems such as stalling and diminished
power, and will also ensure that fluid levels (for brakes,
transmission, windshield washer, etc.) are topped off or replaced if
needed.

Talk to Your Mechanic!

Think of this as your car’s annual check-up. Just like you’d talk about
test results to a doctor, raise any concerns you have to your mechanic.
Ask if there is anything you need to keep an eye on. Visiting our
service department is often a great way to go. Feel free to call H & H Chevrolet
and make an appointment or simply click schedule service at the top of
this page. We know that no matter where you go or when you drive,
having a healthy car feels good.
