Finding the Right Auto Mechanic.

This is the time of year that you cannot make a mistake in the maintenance of your vehicle.  Winter is a harsh opponent in the Kansas City area.  If you do not have a garage your challenges are even greater.  Make sure that you cover the engine with a blanket in the coldest temperatures coming up.  Slowly tap your accelerator in the morning when you start your car so it doesn’t flood.

Your battery should quite simply be replaced if it is two or three years old or older.  Check those cables.  If they slip free from the nodes that’s bad news.  If you are having your luxury car stored for winter make sure that you check the engine oil.  It may need to be changed before storing it.  Top off all of the fluids and check the tires before you tuck that baby away for winter.

Making sure that this winter is worry-free as it pertains to transportation is a job for the A-Team.  Your Kansas City area year-round vehicle protection experts.  Once again, it comes down to Able Auto Service at 837 Osage Ave. in Kansas City.  Make an appointment for all preventative winter maintenance today by calling (913) 321-1030.
