Every vehicle requires routine auto maintenance.

  • Automotive Tune Ups

  • Buzz’s Automotive Services offers quality tune-ups, as well as other auto repair services. Normal tune-ups may protect against future engine complications while recognizing and replacing worn-out parts. Keeping a regular tune-up timetable will help your vehicle last much longer, sustain a higher gas mileage, and enhance efficiency. Many vehicles have parts that are known to break over time. While these components may last longer than the suggested time frame it is wise to have them looked at on a regular basis. If these components are not looked at on a consistent basis and a mechanic tune-up is not performed, then a major issue could occur.

  • Oil Changes

  • Don’t remember when you last had an oil change or lube for your car? That’s not so good. Oil changes for your vehicle are very necessary. The longevity and performance level of your engine depends on it. Keeping a vehicle’s essential fluids clean will keep it running properly and avoid unnecessary wear and tear that will ultimately lead to the need for costly repairs or, in the worst-case scenario – a new engine or entire vehicle. The purpose of engine oil is to keep the internal parts of your car’s engine lubricated and cool. It keeps the moving parts from grinding against each other causing wear and damage.

  • Batteries

  • The main job of your vehicle’s battery is to start all the electrical functions of the car through a large jolt of electricity. It creates this power by transforming chemical energy into electrical energy which it then regulates over a period, to keep the engine functioning properly. Your vehicle’s battery is a small part that does a lot of heavy lifting, so proper maintenance is key. If you are properly caring for your vehicle your battery should last around three to five years, before it needs to be replaced. 

  • Unfortunately, many people find that their car battery only lasts one to two years. This can be a sign that the battery is made from poor quality materials, but it can also be a symptom of poor battery maintenance.

  • Scheduled Maintenance

  • Scheduled maintenance is a regular checkup to help prolong the life of your vehicle’s parts. Taking your car in for scheduled maintenance not only helps keep your car on the road longer, but it also gives you the opportunity to address any potential vehicle issues before they turn into costly repairs. Many people neglect to perform scheduled maintenance on their vehicles. Low or dirty engine oil, low or contaminated brake fluid, dirty air filters, and torn belts are all checked during routine scheduled maintenance. Preventative maintenance will keep your car in great shape and save you money on future car repairs.
