Get Your Engine Running at Peak Performance
If your vehicle has been feeling sluggish, stalling, or consuming more fuel than usual, it might be time for a tune-up. Regular tune-ups help maintain engine efficiency, extend the life of vital components, and prevent unexpected breakdowns. 81-40 Auto Service offers professional tune-up services tailored to your vehicle’s needs to keep it running smoothly and reliably.
Why Tune-Ups Matter
Over time, essential engine components wear down, fuel efficiency decreases, and performance declines. A tune-up helps restore your vehicle’s power, improve fuel economy, and ensure reliability. Ignoring routine maintenance can lead to costly repairs down the road.
Signs You Need a Tune-Up
- Warning lights – Dashboard lights indicate potential problems that need attention.
- Stalling – If your car suddenly stalls at intersections or when accelerating, it’s time for a check-up.
- Hard starts – Struggling to start your vehicle can point to battery, ignition, or fuel system issues.
- Poor fuel mileage – A sudden drop in fuel efficiency signals engine inefficiency or maintenance needs.
- Soft or noisy brakes – Squeaky, vibrating, or unresponsive brakes should be inspected immediately.
- Unusual engine noises – Knocking, rattling, or misfiring can indicate worn or failing components.
- Rough shifting – A transmission that hesitates, shifts roughly, or delays requires attention.
- Sluggish acceleration – A lack of power can point to ignition, fuel, or airflow issues.
- Vibrations while driving – Unexplained vibrations could be caused by worn spark plugs, bad motor mounts, or failing components.
