Frequently Asked Questions
What Exactly Is a Tune-Up?
A tune-up is a routine maintenance procedure for your vehicle that focuses on improving engine performance and efficiency. It involves replacing worn-out parts like spark plugs and filters and performing checks to catch any problems. Regular tune-ups help your car get better gas mileage, lower emissions, and last longer.
How Often Should I Get a Tune-Up?
The recommended schedule for tune-ups depends on each vehicle’s make and model. Typically, older cars need a tune-up every 10,000 to 20,000 miles. Modern vehicles with electronic ignitions may only need them every 30,000 to 50,000 miles. Check your owner’s manual or talk with our team at Christian Brothers Automotive Miramesa for specific advice.
