It may seem common knowledge, but
the busy nature of the world around us does not leave people with the ability
to learn how to recognize when their car needs maintenance. So, if you are
reading, here are a few quick tips to help you know when you should schedule
Vehicle Maintenance.
Time
Like all machines, Cars and their Engines need regular maintenance to run smoothly. Most Owner's manuals recommend performing an Oil Change every 3k Miles. However, as shops, we have noticed customers don’t always pay attention to them mileage.
Warning Lights
Commonly referred to as “Idiot
Lights,” most vehicles made today have Sensors that monitor the vehicle. The
Service Soon or Oil Change light will come on when it’s time to get your
vehicle’s Oil Changed. The Throttle Body Light, which looks like a little
lightning bold inside parenthesis, will light up when it’s time to have your
Throttle Body cleaned.
They even have lights for your
tires. The TMPS sensor tells you when you need to replace your Tire Sensor. The
Low Pressure Light indicates that Air is low in your Tires.
Some vehicles even have lights
that indicate when it’s time to perform a Brake Replacement.

Dover can help you with all of these Vehicle Maintenance needs.
Strange Sounds
When you start noticing strange
smells or sounds coming from your vehicle, it’s often a sign that you let your
maintenance go too long.
A Whining Sound can indicate several
things. Low Power Steering Fluid is common when you hear a whining. Chirping
can indicate a Worn Belt or Pulley, and Grinding can indicate worn Brakes &
Rotors, or worn Wheel Bearings.
If you are experiencing any of
these, take your vehicle to get inspected by an Automotive Mechanic Near Me
immediately.
