Frequently Asked Questions About Tune-Ups
How Often Should I Get a Tune-Up?
The frequency of tune-ups depends on your vehicle's make, model, and age. Typically, older cars benefit from tune-ups every 20,000-30,000 miles, while newer models with electronic ignition require them less often, usually every 50,000-100,000 miles. Always check your manufacturer’s maintenance schedule or speak with our Inver Grove Heights team for personalized advice.
What Does a Tune-Up Include?
A full tune-up usually involves inspecting and, if necessary, replacing essential parts like spark plugs, air filters, fuel filters, and PCV valves, and checking the ignition system. It may also include a visual review of engine timing and idle speed. Tune-up steps are customized for your vehicle’s needs, based on automotive tune-up best practices in Inver Grove Heights and your manufacturer’s recommendations.
Can a Tune-Up Improve Fuel Efficiency?
Yes. Replacing worn parts during a tune-up, such as spark plugs and air filters, helps your engine operate more efficiently. A recent car tune up can lead to smoother performance and noticeable improvement in gas mileage for Inver Grove Heights drivers.
Is a Tune-Up Necessary if My Vehicle Has No Problems?
Even if your car seems to run well, routine tune-ups are an essential form of preventive maintenance. They let us identify and address small concerns before they become costly repairs. Regular tune-ups keep your vehicle safe, efficient, and can help maintain its resale value over time.
