Routinely maintaining your Volkswagen model is necessary to keep it performing at the highest standard. Fortunately, at Mike Savoie Volkswagen of Troy, our Service Department is capable of handling any such tasks. Read this article about the importance of regular maintenance and the benefits that you can derive from it.

Routine Maintenance

From oil changes to cabin air filter replacements, regular maintenance is a necessary practice to keep your Volkswagen performing at peak capacity. Some examples include topping off fluids, such as coolant or brake fluid. This can also involve windshield wiper replacements, brake pad swap-outs, battery inspections, and engine checks. Scheduling these services regularly will keep the engine lubricated, critical systems such as climate controls well-maintained, and ensure that your model will be functioning optimally. At regular intervals, it might also be a good idea to get the tires rotated or switched. There are plenty of maintenance tasks that you may wish to get on a routine basis before your next journey down Route 53.

Benefits of Routine Maintenance

For starters, regular service will ensure that your vehicle will be able to maintain its peak factory-level performance. On top of that, you can avoid costly repairs that may come from leaving mechanical problems unaddressed. Speaking of which, routine maintenance means that our certified technicians can catch problems early on. Plus, regular service keeps the warranty on your sedan, minivan, or SUV valid, which helps to save you money on repairs. Lastly, performing these routine service tasks can extend the lifespan of your car.

Warning Signs

On occasions when your vehicle begins to suffer from breakdowns or mechanical malfunctions, then it’s probably a sign that you haven’t kept up on routine maintenance. For example, if you notice that the climate control systems has stopped outputting air, then the problem could be as simple as a dirty cabin air filter that needs to be replaced. Any grinding engine noises and burning smells that you may notice as you drive past Raintree Park may be able to be solved with a quick oil change. Squeaking wheels or pulling at the steering wheel might mean that the brake pads or tires may need to be replaced. At our location, we have highly-trained mechanics who can answer any questions you may have. If you need to know what routine services might be needed, feel free to contact us at your leisure.
