Is Preventative Maintenance the Same for European Brands in Dallas and Houston?
While some things like checking and changing your fluids, inspecting your brakes, and the occasional tune-up for performance are going to be similar, European vehicles sometimes have extra steps that will be unique to that make and model and different mileage or time schedules for when they should be done.
Here are some preventative maintenance examples for a few different models to give you a better idea:
- Volkswagen – Powerhouses of efficiency, Volkswagens still need to be maintained in order to preserve that excellent engineering. For instance, every 2 years the manufacturer recommends that you should bleed and change the fluid for your brakes. That’s because over time that fluid can absorb a bit too much moisture and if this goes unchecked, corrosion may begin and it could start spreading.
- BMW – BMWs are high-performance vehicles and so they tend to get a little hot under the hood. Coolant issues are a common problem without the right kind of care to balance that heat properly, and so BMW recommends that every 2 – 3 years you get your coolant checked and changed. This helped to avoid any debris or other gunk building up and compromising the coolant system.
- Mini – Minis need their brake fluid flushed and replaced every 30,000 miles, and the fuel filter every 40,000 miles. Once you’ve gotten 60,000 miles out of your Mini, you also want to replace the drive belt. Little details like this are important and easy to forget, as well as these vehicles perform, so it really pays to have an expert like European Service Center on your side!
