Fall Maintenance and You

Fall is a time of transmissions, I mean transitions. The weather is transitioning, trees are changing color, animals are preparing for winter, even the boats are winterizing. Shouldn't you help your car transition as well? Here at the best car dealership near Jefferson City, we want to help get your vehicle ready for the coming winter. That means getting your vehicle in to see some of the best mechanics in the Jefferson City area. There are several key points to focus on when you bring your vehicle in for service.

All Four Tires


Quality tires are a must-have for driving in the coming months. Fall rain, and winter freezes cause the roadways to deteriorate and become slick. An easy way to check if you need new tires is to stick a penny in the tread, if you can see the top of Abe Lincoln's head, it's time for new tires! A tire with poor tread simply cannot handle the road way like a new set of tires can. It's incredibly dangerous to drive on balding tires, and even more so when the roads have patches of black ice hidden. Bring your vehicle in and we'll eliminate this concern for you.


Wipers, Coolant, and Oil


As the weather begins to cool off and ice starts to form, the windshield wipers take a heavy beating. They scrap all of the ice and muck off your windshield and this wears them down quickly - a new set before the winter season will ensure that your car has optimum visibility. On a similar note, the engine coolant may need replaced as well. If your vehicle is running on water for coolant, or anything less than a 50/50 blend of coolant and water, then it's time to replace it. A frozen coolant line is disastrous, both in price and on the life of the vehicle, and it's an easy-to-prevent problem. Finally, make sure you get that oil change done before the dead of winter hits! If there were any issues in the engine from the oil, then the problems can be fixed or remedied before the cold sets in.


The Battery

It often goes unnoticed, that is, until it quits working. If your vehicle is pushing 4 years old or more, and you haven't changed your battery, it may be time to get it tested. The colder the weather gets, the more power your battery needs to push into the system to start your vehicle. An older battery may simply be at the end of it's life cycle and no longer capable of generating this much power. It's much safer to simply get it checked/fixed now when the weather is perfect, than wait until the mile of winter for it to die and leave you stranded in the cold!


The Heater/Defroster


I'ts been a long time since you needed to use the heater or the defroster. A quick check now will determine if you need to get any repairs done. Again, this is the best time for it, as the estimated first frost of the year is coming in a matter of weeks! Better safe than sorry when it comes to visibility and heat in your vehicle.

How to Improve your MPG

Everyone has a tip when it comes to improving your fuel economy.  As the best car dealer near Jefferson city, we've heard some tall tales from customers about Fuel economy. Notable stories include manual transmissions getting better gas mileage and trailing semi trucks to coast in their shadow.  While these are completely untrue and more than slightly dangerous, there are several handy tips that are TRUE.  Here are 5 tips everyone needs to know to maximize the fuel efficiency of their vehicle. 




Let off the Gas!


Instead of putting the pedal to the metal at the green light and racing forward, gradually accelerate.  Driving with quick acceleration kills the efficiency between the engine and the wheels, and the return is a marginally faster beginning.  Once your up to speed, set the cruise control and coast.  Most vehicles are optimized to move at 65 MPH or less, and anything over that will directly reduce your fuel economy. 

Change the Oil and Filters


No, your mechanic isn't trying to get into your wallet. Being regular with oil changes drastically improves the fuel efficiency of your engine. As a car or truck runs, the engine will slowly gather dirt from natural wear and tear. The oil picks this dirt and dust up and loses a lot of its properties: causing the engine to work harder. Changing the oil not only keeps the engine running smoothly, but also allows the mechanic to look at and change the air filter. A dirty air filter prevents the engine from getting enough air to work at peak efficiency- costing you in miles per gallon.



Enjoy the Temperature


No one recommends driving around with the windows down in the middle of the summer, or winter. But if there's no need to have the air conditioner running, get those windows down and enjoy the weather.  This simple trick will keep the vehicle from drawing on the engine to make the air cooler.  This tip was even proven on Mythbusters - driving with the windows down is more fuel efficient than driving with the air conditioning on. 


Air Up the Tires


The tires on a vehicle fluctuate in air pressure every year due to the weather.  Every car or truck has a set amount of PSI that each tire should be at.  Should a tire become over or under-inflated, your fuel economy will.



Use the Brakes Less


If you combine the 1st tip of accelerating smoothly, and pay attention to the road, brakes can be used much less than before.  When brakes are applied to a vehicle, they stop or slow down the momentum. This forces the engine to work back up to the speed you wish to reach and is one of the hardest things on an engine.  This is why stop-and-go traffic is so hazardous to the fuel economy, and why most vehicles have two written numbers for MPG : Highway and City.  Use the brakes less by modulating your speed to increase peak fuel efficiency.

Safety First


The number 1 way to improve the average miles per gallon of a vehicle is to drive safely. Here at the best new car dealership in Jefferson City, your safety is incredibly important.  Maintaining safe speeds and utilizing these tips will improve your fuel economy, as well as optimizing the vehicle for your protection.  Come down to Spieler's Incorporated for all your car repair needs and we'll make sure your vehicle is at peak performance before you drive off the lot!
