Spring is undoubtedly the time for ensuring your Kia Telluride is smooth running and solvent. The winter provides a beating to our vehicles, and with such weathering wear can exponentially increase to a standard unsafe or compromising. Spring maintenance is easy to accomplish at Grand Kia's centralized, greater Denver area service center.
The Benefits of an Oil Change in Arvada
Some people might think of an oil change as an annoyance every few thousand miles. You may even resist making an appointment given daily doings of commuting, family and errands. Those who think like this should ponder the following benefits derived from a simple oil change at Grand Kia's Westminster area service center:
- Oil dark in color will be replaced with that of an amber distinction. Oil filter change comes next.
- With your Kia on the lift, tires will be inspected for wear, items lodged and proper inflation. Once everything is cool, tires are likely to be rotated while noting any issues with alignment. This, all important to safe operation and steering, and should never be ignored if your Kia Sorento pulls to the left or right effortlessly.
- Brake calipers and rotors will be examined for wear or evidence of uneven grinding.
- Once lowered, the engine will be inspected for hose punctures and leakage, as well as belt wear and tear. You'll never want a belt coming loose, thereby immobilizing your vehicle right then and there. Fittings and components are also checked for proper connections.
- All systems needing fluids will be inspected and topped accordingly. Yet another seemingly minor task though most important to efficiently working brakes, steering and wipers.
- With hood up, your battery will be checked for proper connections and power. There's always residue caking the plugs, which will be cleared allowing for pristine starts.
- Next comes the visual inspection of quarter panels, lamp integrity and windscreen.
Be Aware of Little Things That Could Become Larger Issues
Before stepping into our Kia sedans and SUVs, one should always make a cursory inspection of tires, headlights and taillamps, and body damage. It's also best to spy the undercarriage looking for anything caught or entangled.
- Once you're on your way, take note of steering for pulls to left or right.
- When applying brakes, listen for squeaking or grinding. Streaks left from wiper blades signal replacement.
- Dimmed headlights and taillamps, and cracks in casing should be attended to right away, thus lessening the chances of a traffic stop or reduced vision during the evening.
Again, the seasonal battering of winter will take its toll on all vehicles throughout Lakewood, be they Kia or lesser brands.
