6 Vehicle Saving Tips To Ask Your Sacramento Porsche Mechanic

  • When you get the oil changed have all fluids checked. This includes the brake, steering fluid, transmission fluid, and even the antifreeze.
  • The tires on your vehicle should be checked once a month in order to assure that the inflation or under inflation is addressed. Properly inflated tires can assist in fuel savings.
  • The tuning of your engine is so very important! This will allow a fouled spark plug or a clogged fuel injector to be found and rectified. This little act can actually assist in the efficiency of fuel consumption by upwards of 30%.
