How Often Should I Rotate My Tires?
Most vehicle’s tires should be rotated every six months or every 7,500 miles, depending on which comes first. Ignoring this service can cause significant wear and tear to your vehicle’s tires. A tire rotation consists of switching the front and rear tires. By rotating your tires, you distribute the workload among all four tires to ensure that they wear evenly.
How Often Should I Get My Oil Changed?
This one can be a little tricky. Traditionally your vehicle’s oil should be changed every 3,000 miles or so; in modern vehicles, with synthetic oils? That number grows to every 5,000 miles, 7,500 miles, or even 10,000 miles. Pay close attention to the recommendation in your owner’s manual. Many newer vehicles come with an oil life monitor that tracks your oil changes.
When Should I Get My Brakes Serviced?
Brake pads need to be replaced every 25,000 to 70,000 miles, depending on how you drive your car. You will also notice when something seems amiss with your brakes. If you start to notice poor braking performance, squeaky or grinding brakes, excessive vibration while braking, then you need to take your car in as soon as possible.
When Does Your Battery Need To Be Serviced?
When your battery starts to die, you will notice. The exterior or interior lights will look dimmer, a clicking sound will occur when you start your car, the charging light illuminates on the instrument cluster, and slow cranking during start up. A typical battery lasts about three to five years.
All these services – and more – can be performed by our expert service technicians here at Limbaugh Toyota.
