Everyone loves getting a brand new vehicle. But after a while that new car smell start to fade, your miles start to add up on the odometer, the shine on your paint lost some of it’s sparkle and there may even be a French fry lost somewhere under your seat. The next thing you notice is your vehicle doesn’t have the same get up and go as it used too. Some times your vehicle sputters or is making strange noises along with some new unfamiliar smells. Lastly the dreaded “Check Engine Light” comes on. These are all signs that you may need a tune up. Don’t worry, tune ups are essential for every vehicle eventually. Just like our bodies as we get older we need attention. A tune up is a bit like a physical for your vehicle.

Below are some of the more critical task performed during a tune up. Depending on the needs of your vehicle other tasks may also need to be completed.
Fluid Replacement: You vehicle requires a variety of liquids to run and perform it’s many functions such as engine oil, brake fluid, coolant and transmission fluid. These all need to be kept clean if parts such as your transmission and engine are to function properly. During your tune up, an Orozco’s Auto Service technician will examine all these fluids and drain and replace them if they show any signs of contamination or loss of viscosity.
Ignition System Repair: During this part of the tune up, an Orozco’s Auto Service technician will examine your car’s ignition system and replace any parts that show signs of wear. Your vehicle’s ignition system is made up of many components such as spark plugs, wires, coils and various electrical parts. These components wear down over time, which can impact your vehicle’s performance. A worn ignition coils could cause engine misfires.
Belt and Hose Replacement: Your vehicle requires several belts and hoses to run all of it’s components along with your engine. The hoses move fluids throughout the engine, and the belts support parts such as the alternator and water pump. Over time daily wear and tear can cause these belts and hoses to crack or break. Over the course of your tune up, we will check your car’s hoses and belts and replace those that show any signs of wear.
Filter Replacement: Your vehicle relies on several filtration systems to filter the air that travels through the engine and the cabin, and they prevent contaminants from polluting your car’s fuel and oil. Each system plays a very important role in maintaining the way your vehicle performs. If your car’s oil filter isn’t replaced at regular intervals, it could cause dirty oil to clog your engine. an Orozco’s Auto Service technician will take a look at your vehicle’s filters and make all the necessary replacements.
Always refer to the maintenance section of your vehicles’ owners manual for their recommended tune up schedule, which can vary from vehicle to vehicle. In many cases, manufacturers advise tuning up your car or truck once every year. Getting regular tune-ups might seem like a hassle, but they’re worth the effort to prevent costly damage over time.
