Oil Change
The oil change is the most basic of all services and it is perhaps the most critical. Not because the oil is the most critical but because what happens during an oil change.
Now if you use a quick oil change service provider you may not be getting the full benefit of what a qualified shop can do for you and your car.
You see when out technicians perform an oil change, we start by taking a short road test. When we drive the car, we are listening for anything out of the ordinary. This is standard and it helps detects issues of concern that the driver did not know where issues of concern.
After that cars are inspected for the basic needs. We go through a list of about 45 items (all of them visual) this will alerts us if your tires are safe, or if there is any leaks of vital fluids. Also, we inspect the hoses and belts to see it they are good. Of course, we look at your brakes, your exterior lights, your wipers, any suspension components, and many more.
Then of course we replace the oil and it’s oil filter with new ones. Using the proper recommended fluid for your car. And we set the tires to the recommended pressure.
This is done so that when we hand the keys back to the customer and get asked the question, “is everything OK with my car” we can confidently say, “YES”
As you may see and oil change is actually more like a routine checkup. A safety pit stop.
So next time you call for an oil change, you know what to expert at Omega Automotive.
Air Conditioning
Most cars today are equipped with climate control systems. Some cars have a fully automated system while others have a manual system. The purpose of it is of course give you warn air in the winter and cold air in the summer. In California we use the a/c almost year-round since the weather here is not too cold. Also, in winter the days can be warmer inside the car. So, if your system is not working. We can definitely help.
A lack of coolant or low coolant levels will prevent your heater from work properly. Not to mention a coolant leak can damage your engine due to overheating. So please if you see any leaks, it is always best to have your car looked at immediately.
Air conditioner repairs are usually simple repairs. Many times, we find that the only issue is low freon content. We have repaired several cars that had either low levels of cold air (somewhat cold basically) or no cold air at all. Of course, if your blower fan does not work at all that will keep the entire air containing system of your car from working.
Some of the root causes that let the freon out on your car’s system are leaks.
Leaks due to puncture condensers
leaky hoses
leaky compressor.
But there is more. There are a number of pressure switches and transducers can will keep the compressor from working properly.
