Be Proactive

Talk to almost any auto technician, and they will tell you the key to keeping vehicles running well, today and down the road, is routine and scheduled maintenance. Yet many drivers tend to stall when it comes to keeping up with some everyday auto basics. Recent automotive surveys have found:

• 38 percent of cars had low or dirty engine oil.

• 54 percent had low tire pressure.

• 28 percent had inadequate cooling protection.

• 19 percent needed new engine belts.

• 16 percent had dirty air filters.

• 10 percent had low or contaminated brake fluid.

Most of the checks and services described here can be done at little cost, especially when considering the long-term cost of major mechanical failures. Motoring Unlimited provides premier service for Porsche and Audi vehicles. Stop by anytime and have one of our technicians check your tire pressures and fluid levels.
