Factory Recommended Maintenance in Franklin, MA, for your Euro Car

We sometimes refer to factory recommended maintenance as preventative maintenance. Each manufacturer has its own time intervals for the different aspects of preventative maintenance.

• Oil Changes: When you bring your vehicle in for an oil change, we also change the filter and conduct a safety inspection.
• Transmission Flush: The transmission also has a filter, which is in the transmission oil pan. Flushing the system ensures all of the old transmission fluid is removed. We also change the filter and clean the metal shavings and other debris out of the pan.
• Coolant Flush: Coolant keeps your engine from overheating during the summer and freezing during the winter. Over time, the coolant becomes contaminated and won’t do its job. Flushing it ensures we remove all the old coolant so it doesn’t contaminate the new coolant.
• Check Fluids: Every time you come in for maintenance or European repair, we check and top off the fluids.
• Brake Inspection: Because the vehicle’s brakes are critical to your safety, we inspect the brakes and, if needed, can replace the brake pads.
• Tire Maintenance: Tires are just as important as the brakes since they are the only thing between you and the road. Worn tires can cause accidents. We recommend rotating the tires at every other oil change. We also check the tire pressure and check for uneven wear and damage to the sidewalls.
• Air Filter Replacement: During our inspection, we check the engine air filter. The vehicle needs a clean filter to breathe properly. If it is dirty, we can replace it.
• Battery Check: During our inspection, we check the battery for damage and corrosion. We can also check the voltage, amperage, and the charging status of the alternator.
