Keep Your Vehicle Running For Years to Come

We all know that person that has had the same car for 20 years and it just keeps chugging along. Well, what’s the secret? Why do some cars seemingly last forever while others can barely make it a few years? The answer is simple: regular, preventative maintenance. There are no miracle cures, just dedication to keeping your vehicle clean and lubricated. There is no time off from maintenance.

Prepare Your Vehicle for Fall Weather

The summer is over and the evenings are getting colder and colder. Now is the perfect time to take advantage of a change in seasons and prepare your vehicle for the rest of fall and the upcoming winter season.

Here are some tips for the perfect fall care for your vehicle:

How to Prevent a Summer Road Breakdown

Summer keeps chugging along and so does road trip season. No matter what your plans are this summer, no one wants to breakdown in the heat in a place far away from home. Follow these steps before any extended driving this summer in order to keep your vehicle on the road.

Getting the Most out of Road Trip MPG

Road trip season is upon us. Whether you’re visiting family, the mountains, the beach, a theme park, or some other adventure, costs can add up quickly. Before you embark on your next road trip, give the following road trip MPG tips a try. Maximizing your MPG will save you money at the pump, which in turn will give you more money to spend on fun activities.

What Oil is What?

The “Check Engine” light on your dashboard illuminates. You look up and realize you’ve passed the mileage on your oil change sticker. It’s time to visit your nearest Jiffy Lube for a Signature Service Oil Change. But you know when you get there they’ll ask you what oil you want, and because you’ve never really known the difference, you’ve always had conventional because it was the cheapest. So what is the difference?

There are four types of oils to choose from: Conventional, High Mileage, Synthetic Blend and Synthetic. Some vehicles require synthetic oil (BMWs, Audis and some Subarus, among others), so be sure to check if your vehicle has any requirements.
