Fluid levels are important. Most auto service companies inspect all fluids upon having an oil change. At Gin's Auto Care, we make sure to check them all when having an oil change.
Radiator Service
Be Cool
You may love the heat of summer, but don't let your car get hot! You need to help your vehicle keep its cool when temperatures rise. An engine that runs too hot can damage internal engine parts and cooling system parts quickly, and create extra auto repair bills. Many vehicles are recommended to have a radiator flush and refilled every 30,000 miles. See your owners manual for exact miles.

Batteries
Crank it up!
Living in the Sierra Mountains can be tough on a battery. Typically in colder weather, you can run into a situation such as not having the proper cranking power. This may be from your vehicle sitting too long, possibly a bad cell or just an old battery that needs to be replaced. You can bring your battery to Gin's Auto and have a test done on it for free! If you need to replace it, we have batteries on hand.
