My Engine Light Is On-Now what?

Your engine light can be indicative of a variety of issues. The severity of the issue can range from basic to something serious. Whether it's a loose gas cap or if you're in need of an oil change, drivers are advised to pay close attention when their engine lights come on. For Pasadena drivers, we recommend bringing your vehicle in for a multi-point inspection to find out the cause of the issue. By having one of our experts inspect your vehicle, you can rest assured that we will have your Volvo performing in peak condition in no time.

What Should I Do When My Tire Pressure Light Comes On?

If your tire pressure light is on, you most likely have low tire pressure. Having low tire pressure could lead to uneven wear on your tires and even a potential blowout while driving throughout Los Angeles. Uneven wear on your tires causes drivers to have to replace all four tires sooner when left untreated. Low tire pressure also causes your vehicle to consume more power as you drive, which burns more fuel than normal. So, if your vehicle is pulling to one side as you drive or your tire pressure light is on, it may be time to let our experts check out your tires.

When Should I Have My Oil Changed?

Oil can be considered as the lifeblood of your vehicle. It keeps your engine lubricated and running smoothly. When the oil gets dirty from daily wear and debris, your engine can't operate as efficiently as it should. By not changing your oil on a regular basis, you run the risk of sludge buildup and potential engine malfunction. Experts recommend having your oil changed every 5,000 miles to ensure your vehicle stays in excellent condition.

Do I Need to Have My Tires Rotated?

Having your tires rotated helps extend the life of your tires by redistributing the wear to other parts. Regular tire rotations, in turn, ensure even tire wear that isn't localized to one spot. Having your tires rotated keeps your tires in great shape and prevents many costly disasters.
