The fluid levels in your vehicle are important for a number of reasons. There are several fluids that work together to help your vehicle operate efficiently and easily. Each fluid should be checked on a regular basis to ensure it is at the correct amount in each reservoir. If it is not, you will have to replace it with more fluid. There is a chance that you may need to replace it often, which may mean there is a leak in the system somewhere. Ignoring a leak can increase the chance of a safety issue and further damage happening. So if you have to replace any fluid often, bring the vehicle in so we can inspect it for you.
Fluid flush
By following the recommended fluid change or flush schedule you can improve the efficiency of how it runs. The fluids should be flushed when they are starting to get too old to be effective for your vehicle. Over time, the fluid can get debris in it and start to result in grime occurring. When the fluid gets too think, it will not be able to move through the vehicle and do what it was designed to do. If you are not sure on when the fluid should be changed or flushed, we can advise you on the correct schedule for your vehicle.
Remember the Oil
Always remember to change the oil in your vehicle as well. This will help improve the gears and parts because it will be properly lubricated when you drive. Without the oil, these parts can cause friction and wear against one another. Any clunking or grinding noise could be a result of low or no oil. It is not a bad idea to have an extra quart or two of oil in the back seat or trunk of your vehicle. That way, incase you need oil, you will be able to add it, no matter where you are at.
