When I turn left my car jerks

So you're turning left and your car jerks. I am just going to say that's not normal and it should be looked at. There's a good change that it's a suspension part that has worn out and needs replaced. Most of your suspension parts are parts that only need to be replaced when they wear out, they don't have a mileage interval, except for shocks and struts which should be replaced between 75,000 and 100.000 miles.  Give us a call and let us take care of you.  Happy Adventures,  Heather

Why and when should I change my spark plugs?

Why and when should I change my spark plugs?

Let's deal with the why first. When your spark plugs are old then your engine doesn't run as well, it burns more fuel and it's harder on the engine.  Now the when, that depends on your engine. They are making the parts that go into engines better all the time, so it really depends on the manufacturer. To keep costs down for them many manufacturers will have you change your spark plugs every 30,000 miles, others need to be changed every 60,000 to 90,000 miles. When we see your vehicle we will make it a customized maintenance schedule so you know when your services are due. Give us a call and let us take care of you.  Happy Adventures, Heather
