Why is Fluid Replacement Service Important?

While it is important to get your fluids checked and topped off frequently - for example, during your routine motor oil change - manufacturers also recommend that all fluids be drained, flushed, and refilled every so often. The frequency varies based on the type of vehicle and fluid involved. Each serves a distinct purpose and can cause serious problems if not properly maintained.

Transmission fluid provides hydraulic pressure and friction, lubricates the gears, and helps keep the transmission cool. If dirt or debris gets in, it could cause unnecessary wear and tear. Brake fluid helps stop your vehicle by using hydraulic pressure to transfer the force from your foot on the pedal to your brakes. If moisture gets into the fluid, or if corrosion occurs, the result could be brake failure.

Similarly, power steering fluid provides lubrication for the steering system and creates hydraulic pressure that makes it easier to turn the wheels. If you notice difficulty making sharp turns, it could be due to sludge and debris in this fluid. Though coolant and antifreeze sound like opposites, they're actually the same fluid. Mixed with water, this fluid must maintain the right balance in order to prevent freezing in the winter and overheating in the summer.

Unlike routine oil changes, there's no warning light on your dashboard or sticker on your windshield to remind you to change most of your other essential fluids. So they're easy to overlook. We can let you know which of yours might be approaching the recommended milestone.
