Did you know that basic springtime maintenance now could save you hundreds or even thousands of dollars in service bills later?
It's true!
We may be out of the woods for snowstorms and sleet in the Washington, Canonsburg, Bethel Park, and Pittsburgh areas (knock on wood) but that doesn't mean you can let your vehicle go un-attended until the next cold snap.
Spring and summer services are just as important to your Subaru's health, performance, and well-being as fall and winter services. Some quick fixes now can prevent damage to body, engine, transmission, wheels, and more that could otherwise cost you a pretty penny in repairs down the road.
Seasonal Subaru Service and Vehicle Prep Tips
Here are some simple springtime service tips that you can do at home, or let our in-house techs take care of for you:
- Inspect the A/C and coolant systems to avoid potential overheating
- Perform a wheel alignment to improve handling, tire wear, and even fuel economy
- Check the level and condition of engine oil--change if necessary
- Swap out snow/winter tires for all-season or winter tires
- Inspect and test battery charge--replace if necessary
Moderate/mild climates like we see in the Pennsylvania springtime can make it hard to plan ahead, because we see everything from sleet to sunshine to rain to hail to high winds and dry dust. But with a few service tips like these, you can help prep your Subaru against the ever-changing weather in the Washington and Pittsburgh areas.
We know the cars and we know the local climate: you can trust the professionals at Budd Baer Subaru.
