What Happens to Your Car When You Skip Regular Service and Maintenance?

Do you see an appointment at our BMW service center coming up on your calendar? Thinking your vehicle is working great and, in this busy season, you’ll just skip it? Putting off maintenance can be more harmful than you think. We’re taking a closer look at BMW of Wesley Chapel.

If You Skip Oil Changes

Your engine needs oil to minimize friction by keeping parts lubricated and moving without restrictions. As it ages though, it starts to get dirty and gummy in consistency. With too much friction, your engine can seriously overheat and even end up shutting down completely.

If You Don’t Keep Your Other Fluids Topped Off

Your engine oil isn’t the only crucial fluid in your vehicle. It’s important to inspect all the fluids in your vehicle and keep them at an adequate level. They each have different roles, but they are all vital to your vehicle’s function.

Your vehicle’s fluids include:

• Transmission fluid
• Brake fluid
• Power steering fluid
• Coolant
• Windshield wiper fluid

If You Don’t Rotate Your Tires

We encourage routine tire rotations because it helps keep your tires from wearing unevenly. Uneven wear tends to lead to more damage than necessary. It can also cause you to deal with a lot more flats than necessary too.

If You Don’t Have Your Vehicle Regularly Inspected

A major perk of regular service appointments is regularly having a professional’s eye on your vehicle. We don’t just perform the necessary maintenance tasks — we also take a careful look at your vehicle. We make sure everything is working properly and that nothing needs repair or replacement.
