Here are a few things you'll want to know about the advanced services offered in the Mazda CX-5 and how they can help you improve your driving experience.
The Texas roads and highways take a hefty toll on your vehicle throughout the year, and between your daily work commute, picking the kids up from school, or running errands on the weekends, finding time for a quick vehicle inspection or essential car maintenance at times can become tough!
Getting the most from your tires requires attention inside and out. Proper inflation and tread are the two keys to tire performance. Rotating tires regularly will help tires wear evenly, and the tire replacement and repair team at Gullo Mazda of Conroe can help.
Inflation can affect both performance and tread. Too much air (over inflation) will cause the tires to bulge and ride on the center of the tread, limiting contact with the road. Too little air (under inflation) puts more pressure on the outside edges of the tire and can add friction that makes your car less efficient…
Four-wheel drive vehicles can furnish drivers like you with stability and power in tough weather and road conditions. Some kinds of 4WD trucks and SUVs have the ability to engage 2-wheel drive service at will. Such cars and trucks often include parts known as transfer cases.
Transfer cases are special gearboxes that attach to regular transmissions or their casings. Transfer cases can use energy from the main transmissions to engage 4-wheel or 2-wheel drive service whenever necessary.
Knowing the basics of what your vehicle and its parts require can be of great benefit to you. The series of letters and numbers on the side of the tire looks daunting at first. With a little explanation, you will soon be very comfortable with the abbreviations.
The series often begins with a letter, such as "P," which represents passenger car. From there, you’ll see a three-digit number, perhaps 225. That tells you the tire’s width in millimeters. That’s followed by a slash and then a two-digit number.
When you wash dishes at home, you use soap to make sure you get out all the stains and smudges. Without dish soap, your dishes would be left with bits of food and stains. The same concept should be applied to your car. If you use only water instead of windshield wiper fluid, you are not going to have a very clean windshield.
Windshield wiper fluid has ingredients in it that are better at getting rid of stains and smashed bugs.
The dangers of driving on worn tires can be numerous, from losing control in slick conditions to not being able to bring your vehicle to a stop in time. Our service team wants to share a few scenarios that you should be aware of.
