What's the difference between an auto tune-up and regular vehicle maintenance?
While regular vehicle maintenance means performing services such as oil changes, and tire rotations, to ensure your vehicle runs as the car manufacturer intended. An auto tune-up service is meant to enhance the vehicle's engine performance, by replacing several parts to make an older vehicle run like new. If your vehicle is hard to start or is hesitating to start, isn't getting the mileage it used to, is showing signs of emission problems, or it simply doesn't have the power it once had, don’t hesitate to make an appointment with KEAN Auto Services online, or by calling 250-897-4643.
What does an auto tune-up service entail?
Oftentimes, an auto tune-up service consists of replacing your vehicle's spark plugs and performing other adjustments to restore engine performance. Different manufacturers have different intervals in which tune-ups or scheduled maintenance should be performed. If you have questions about whether your car, truck, or SUV needs a tune-up, give us a call. There are various vehicle parts we at KEAN Auto Services can inspect to determine which services your vehicle needs, including:
- Battery voltage and charging voltage.
- Engine's various parts.
- Engine vacuum, to detect exhaust restrictions and air leaks.
- Exhaust emissions.
- Hoses and belts, all fluids (oil, power steering fluid, brake fluid, coolant, transmission fluid, etc.)
If the initial check-up reveals no major faults, the spark plugs, air filters, fuel filters, and fuel cap (if required) should be replaced for preventative maintenance. If your vehicle doesn't meet federal emissions standards, its oxygen sensor should be replaced as well. It is important to bring your vehicle in for routine maintenance regardless of its age, make, and mileage, to ensure that your vehicle runs as smoothly as possible and to prevent small problems from becoming bigger.
