Vehicle Tips
The cooling system should be completely flushed and refilled about every 24 months. The level, condition, and concentration of coolant should be checked. (A 50/50 mix of anti-freeze and water is usually recommended.)
Vehicle Tips
Never remove the radiator cap until the engine has thoroughly cooled. The tightness and condition of drive belts, clamps and hoses should be checked by a pro.
Vehicle Tips
Change your oil and oil filter as specified in your manual, or more often (every 3,000 miles) if you make frequent short jaunts, extended trips with lots of luggage or tow a trailer.
Vehicle Tips
Replace other filters (air, fuel, PCV, etc.) as recommended, or more often in dusty conditions. Get engine drivability problems (hard stops, rough idling, stalling, diminished power, etc.) corrected at a good shop.
Vehicle Tips
A dirty windshield causes eye fatigue and can pose a safety hazard. Replace worn blades and get plenty of windshield washer solvent.
Vehicle Tips
Have your tires rotated about every 5,000 miles. Check tire pressures once a month; let the tires cool down first. Don't forget your spare and be sure your jack is in good condition.
Vehicle Tips
Check your owner's manual to find out what fuel octane rating your car's engine needs then buy it.
Vehicle Tips
Keep your tires inflated to the proper levels. Under-inflated tires make it harder for your car to move down the road, which means your engine uses more fuel to maintain speed.
Vehicle Tips
Lighten the load. Heavier vehicles use more fuel, so clean out unnecessary weight in the passenger compartment or trunk before you hit the road.
Vehicle Tips
Use the A/C sparingly. The air conditioner puts extra load on the engine forcing more fuel to be used.
Vehicle Tips
Keep your windows closed. Wide-open windows, especially at highway speeds, increase aerodynamic drag and the result is up to a 10% decrease in fuel economy.
Vehicle Tips
Avoid long idling. If you anticipate being stopped for more than one minute, shut off the car. Contrary to popular belief, restarting the car uses less fuel than letting it idle.
Vehicle Tips
Stay within posted speed limits. The faster you drive, the more fuel you use. For example, driving at 65 miles per hour (mph) rather than 55 mph, increases fuel consumption by 20 percent.
Vehicle Tips
Use cruise control. Using cruise control on highway trips can help you maintain a constant speed and, in most cases, reduce your fuel consumption.
Vehicle Tips
Keep your engine tuned. A fouled spark plug or plugged/restricted fuel injector can reduce fuel efficiency as much as 30 percent.
Vehicle Tips
Inspect the engine's belts regularly. Look for cracks or missing sections or segments. Worn belts will affect the engine performance.
Vehicle Tips
Have the fuel filter changed every 10,000 miles to prevent rust, dirt and other impurities from entering the fuel system.
Vehicle Tips
Change the transmission fluid and filter every 15,000 to 18,000 miles. This will protect the precision-crafted components of the transmission/transaxle.
Vehicle Tips
Inspect the suspension system regularly. This will extend the life of the vehicle's tires.

Inspections and Emissions
My Go to shop for vehicle inspection and emissions. While there are mixed reviews, my experience is mostly positive. No upsell or unnecessary pressure tactics. Sometimes, there may be a long wait time but I usually avoid end of month to escape from the long lines.
Service staff are super friendly and informative. Advised me of what occurred and what needs to be done.
Provided different solutions in a simple and easy matter. Convenience and accessibility are there.
Will recommend and definitely come back again.

This is the best shop I have found for honest repairs and analysis. It's hard to find a shop to trust and this one has proven over and over to me that they are fair and honest. Recommended.

I recently got both inspections done for my van. The inspector got them both done under 20 mins. Amazingly fast and thorough.

This was my first time getting gas from this Shell gas station. I liked that it was not too busy and that it was clean upon close observation. It's a fairly medium sized business located off of route 50, close to quite a few shopping centers and eateries. The station store was opened for business and even the mechanic in site was wiring in a vehicle as I was filling up my car. I guess one of the things I noticed right away was the gas prices, which are much higher than most of the other gas stations in the vicinity, at least .40 cents higher the average for Plus and the other grades respectively. This price difference is probably why I don't frequently get gas here and ignore it. And it's kind of disappointing that the price is so high for a Shell station considering that a quarter of a mile on the opposite side of the road is another Shell with competitively lower prices. In any case, the reason I stopped here in the first place was GetUpside app suggested it for a .25 cent discount per gallon. Otherwise, I would've driven right past it like l normally would. Unfortunately, if this location's price remain high, I will not stop here again and I'm sure I'm not the only person who's price conscious these days. Overall, a very clean and well-maintained station with free gas pumps and a convenience store on the premises, but they lose points for noncompetitive prices. Just my opinion of course.
