Tune-Up Service in Troy, MI
Have you noticed your car isn’t running quite like it used to? Maybe it’s struggling to start, feels sluggish, or your gas mileage isn’t what it once was. These small changes can creep up over time, but they’re often a sign that your vehicle could use a tune-up. At Troy Auto Care, we specialize in helping motorists across Troy, MI, keep their cars running like new with complete tune-up services.
What Is a Tune-Up and Why Is It Important
A tune-up is a form of preventive maintenance that focuses on key engine components. Think of it as a wellness check for your vehicle. It ensures everything is running efficiently, catches minor issues before they turn into big problems, and helps extend the life of your car.
A tune-up can include any one or more of the following services:
- Replacing spark plugs and ignition coils
- Inspecting and replacing air and fuel filters
- Checking and topping off all fluids
- Inspecting belts, hoses, and battery
- Testing and replacing sensors (if needed)
- Running computer diagnostics
If it’s been a while since your last tune-up, you might notice symptoms like rough idling, slow acceleration, poor fuel economy, or the check engine light popping on.
Top 6 Signs Your Car Needs a Tune-Up
- Hard starts or long cranking
- Decreased gas mileage
- Engine misfires or rough idling
- Lack of power during acceleration
- Unusual engine noises
- Dashboard warning lights
Tune-up intervals can vary depending on your vehicle’s make, model, and year. Older cars with non-electronic ignitions typically need a tune-up more often, while newer vehicles with electronic ignitions and fuel injection can often go 60k -100k miles between tune-ups. That said, if you notice a drop in performance, it’s a good idea to have your car inspected sooner.
