Following Recommended Intervals for Your Vehicle

If you are reading this article, you probably care about your vehicle and how it runs. Even though you care, there is still that moment of dread when your professional service advisor at Speedy Lube tells you the manufacturer recommends some additional service. Your heart beats a little faster, and your blood pressure rises. You worry about spending more money than you had planned. And you worry that if you say "no," you might be harming your vehicle or risking your family's safety.

At the risk of sounding like your dad, you really should have done your homework. Service recommendations are in your owner's manual. But it is not like you want to keep your vehicle auto maintenance schedule on your nightstand for bedtime reading.
 
Vehicles are complicated machines, and it takes some effort to keep them running well. That is why they have maintenance schedules that explain how to keep your vehicle performing efficiently and prevent breakdowns.

A typical owner's manual includes an oil change, brake fluid and coolant system service, transmission service, battery electrolyte levels, cables and terminals, tire pressure and wear, cabin air filter, air conditioning, fuel filter, belts and hoses, power steering fluid, differential service, and fuel system cleaning. It is a really long list!
 
Fortunately, this is not a test: You don't need to memorize it. Your friendly advisor at Speedy Lube has access to your manufacturer's recommendations. They can remind you when something is due and provide you with the support you need.

They will suggest recommended services and tell you what problems they find under the hood. We will also explain how urgent these services are so you can work them into your budget.
