Don’t Forget About Oil Changes for the New Year!

For many people, the New Year continues to present its challenges as the economy continues to fight stubborn financial problems. Because budgets are tight, you may need to hold onto your older car a little longer than you expected. Don't overlook the small responsibilities as a vehicle owner that will keep you safely on the road, including regular oil change intervals. Regular oil changes can save you some serious repair dollars down the road.

Here are a few items to consider when it comes to good car care that will help keep your car in top running performance throughout 2014.

   1. Keep up with fluid and filter changes, including oil changes. Checking on your vehicle's fluids and filters are important to the longevity of your car and interior comfort. Circle a day on your calendar each month to check all of your fluids and make sure they are at the correct levels. Remember to schedule an oil change, or any other fluid change as recommended by your vehicle's manual. While some fluids, like brake fluid, clutch fluid and coolant may not require attention as often as oil changes or transmission flushes, they're just as important. If you're confused about the appropriate interval for oil changes, transmission flush, etc., don't hesitate to ask your professional auto mechanic.

   2. Schedule two car checkups during the year. A well-trained mechanic can spot potential problems before they happen. Taking the time to schedule a check up with a good mechanic twice a year may seem obsessive, but preventative maintenance is cheap insurance for a reliable vehicle. Also, keep all your service records; including oil changes. Often, documentation of service history is a major buying incentive for a potential buyer.

   3. Take care of small problems early. Unfortunately, there aren't any cars that can fix themselves. Putting off minor maintenance or easy repair work can result in larger problems and costly repair bills overall. Don't procrastinate; repair what's wrong; have the appropriate services at the correct intervals, including oil changes, and your car will last a lot longer.
