Continue reading the summer maintenance tips and schedule service if we can assist at McGrath Acura of Morton Grove.
Multi-Point Vehicle Inspection
An excellent starting point for summer maintenance is a multi-point vehicle inspection that checks all primary systems and components for excessive wear and tear—servicing these components before summer will enhance vehicle reliability, efficiency, and safety. We have certified technicians to provide your multi-point vehicle inspection using the genuine Acura inspection checklist for thorough and accurate results.
A/C System Service & Repair
It’s always a good idea to check the air conditioning system to ensure peak summer performance. Two common signs that the A/C system requires attention are hot air and less airflow exiting the vents. The most common A/C system repair is an A/C recharge service that installs more refrigerant.
Coolant Fluid Exchange
Extreme summer heat increases the value of good coolant fluid that can optimally remove engine heat. A coolant fluid inspection can determine if you need an exchange service. Bad coolant fluid indicators include hotter engine operation or contamination with milky, foamy, or bubbly fluid.
Battery
Summer maintenance should always include a battery check with diagnostic testing because extreme heat is the #1 battery performance threat. A certified Acura battery inspection is ideal because it will be completed by a certified technician that knows what to look for, including case disfiguration, fluid leaking, terminal corrosion. We can also perform a quick battery test to ensure reserve capacity and cold-cranking amps at specifications.
Check for Scheduled Maintenance
Summer maintenance is an opportunity to check vehicle mileage and the maintenance schedule to see if your Acura needs service. Schedule routine maintenance as required, such as an oil change, tire rotation, coolant fluid exchange, or transmission fluid exchange.
