Can Your Car Last Another Year?

Have you checked out the price of new vehicles at Temecula car dealers? Ouch! Add financing and insurance and a new ride may not seem so attractive. A lot of Temecula, California, folks are hoping to make their cars last a lot longer.Fortunately, with the current state of automotive engineering and manufacturing, there's no reason a modern vehicle can't be made to last for a 150,000 miles (250,000 kilometers) or more for smart Temecula drivers.The old adage: 'a stitch in time saves nine' is really true for Temecula residents when it comes to car maintenance.

Maintenance

It's About Time: Following Service Intervals at European Autowerks

There are a lot of things in life that Temecula residents have to do on a regular basis. We wash dishes every day, do our laundry and mow our lawns every week, and pay the bills every month. We should go to our Temecula dentist twice a year and see our doctor for a check-up once a year. When we don't stay on schedule with these routines, it can lead to embarrassing, painful or expensive consequences. Scheduled maintenance is also part of good vehicle care. Temecula drivers should take their vehicles in regularly for a good check-up. But many folks struggle to remember or actually even ignore this auto advice.

Filling a cavity prevents a more painf ... read more

Ask about payment policies, warranties and, of course, the cost of the work being done.It helps to understand basic services your vehicle needs. Know the difference between a quick check-up and a thorough inspection, which you are getting and which you are asking for. Understand that diagnosing a problem takes time, and time isn't free.

European Autowerks Automotive Tips: Diagnostic Service

Imagine waking up one morning with a stomach ache. You pick up the phone, call the doctor’s office and say, “I’ve got a really bad tummy ache. How much will it cost to make me feel better?” Of course you wouldn’t do that. You know that there could be a lot of reasons for your symptoms and that the doctor will have to examine you, ask some questions and probably run some tests before she can tell you what’s wrong and give you treatment options. This same scenario plays out every day at California auto repair facilities. When the cause of the concern isn’t obvious, the car will need to undergo a diagnostic examination. The typical car has about 30,000 parts, including several networked computers and miles of wiring. Finding exactly what is wrong can be very complicated and take some time. The most experienced technicians at European Autowerks in Temecula are the ones who tackle the difficult diagnostic jobs. Once they have determined the cau ... read more
