Filters, Fluids & Flushes

Air filter

The air filter is the key to a clean engine. When it’s dirty, you lose efficiency and fuel consumption goes up as well. It should be changed at least once per year to ensure clean air is being filtered to the engine.

If you drive where there is a lot of dust, pollution or pollen in the air, your engine air filter will get dirty more quickly and need to be changed more frequently.

Fuel filter

In order to ensure that your vehicle’s engine is running smoothly, it needs a fuel filter which can remove water and particles from fuel. With newer model vehicles having sealed filters that can’t be inspected, you should replace them at the manufacturer’s recommended replacement interval.

Cabin air filter

Cabin air filters are a great way to improve the quality of your vehicle's interior. These small yet powerful devices can remove particles and other allergens from inside cars, reducing reactions for those with respiratory issues like asthma or allergies. Cabin filter replacements should happen every year so that you're always enjoying fresh filtered airflow in all areas - especially during winter months when outside conditions may make it hard on these type if filtration systems

Fluids

For a well-functioning vehicle, it's important to have the right fluids. Quality and cleanliness are essential - don't let anything compromise either one.

  • Coolant, or antifreeze - regulates your engine temperature and keeps your vehicle from overheating.
  • Power steering fluid - makes steering your vehicle effortless. If your steering ever feels heavy or difficult, your steering fluid level may be low due to a leak.
  • Brake fluid - when this is low or contaminated, your vehicle’s stopping power is compromised. A properly maintained braking system is essential to your safety.
  • Transmission fluid - lubricates the gears, in both manual and automatic transmissions, keeping your ride smooth.
