What if I only get 2 tires?

posted on 2/8/2017 2:43:56 AM
Q: I really need four tires, but I can only afford two this month. If I get just two is it better to have them replace the front tires or the rear tires? - Casey A: Hi Casey,  When you buy two tires, it's important to make sure that the new tires are mounted on the rear axle. This will help you mantain control on wet roads. Deeper tread provides better resistance against hydroplaning, and redcues risk of fish tailing. Stop by Tire Pros of Frederick or give us a call at 301-663-6334 if you...

Radiator Importance

posted on 2/8/2017 2:26:24 AM
Q: Doesn't radiator maintenance only matter in the summer? - Michelle A: Hi Michelle,  The short answer is no, it matters all year round! The radiator and the cooling system circulate coolant while you drive in order to regulate the temperature of your vehicle's engine. Over time, coolant loses its effectiveness. This can lead to over heating and other damages if not replaced every 24 months. This is why the coolant system is critical all year round, not just in the summer time. If you ne...

Make Sure Your Car's Ready For Winter!

posted on 2/8/2017 2:21:52 AM
You know that winter and bad weather are coming. Is your car ready? Here’s a quick checklist of things to get up to speed on: Motor oil: Motor oil has a tendency to thicken in cold weather, making it harder to circulate to upper engine parts at startup. If you haven’t ever used synthetic oil before, this might be a good time to start. The flow properties of synthetic oil are a lot more consistent, meaning it doesn’t thicken in sub-freezing temperatures or thin out when it’s hot outside....

Transmission Fluid

posted on 2/8/2017 2:19:51 AM
Q: What type of transmission fluid am I supposed to use in my car? - Jackie A: Hi Jackie,  Different transmisions require different types of transmission fluid. We recommend that you have the fluid changed every 25,000-35,000 miles using a Mighty Transmission Flush as part of your regular maintenance. Using Mighty transmisssion additives adds a third party warranty should anything happen to your transmission. If you would like more information, or would like to schedule an appointment for...

How does my clutch work?

posted on 2/8/2017 2:14:43 AM
Q: How exactly does my clutch work? - Steve A: Hi Steve,  Your clutch plays an important part in your vehicle's operation. The clutch pedal is used to activate the clutch. The clutch then engages the flywheel. Once engaged, the flywheel allows the transmission to be shifted from one gear to another. Don't forget, clutches are no different than most other parts in your vehicle - they wear out depending on how carefully they are used while driving! If you would like one of our ASE certified...

No Spare Tire?

posted on 8/25/2016 9:13:23 AM
Believe it or not, many new vehicles come without a spare tire. Manufacturers have a few different reasons for that, including weight savings, space efficiency, and cost. When you're stuck by the side of the road, though, none of that really matters much, does it?    Instead, these vehicles come equipped with an inflation kit and/or a can of sealant.    Sealant is a gooey substance in an aerosol can that's designed to coat the inside of the tire due to centrifugal force once you get rolling aga...

Regular, Synthetic or Blend...What Kind of Oil Do I Need?

posted on 6/14/2016 9:35:44 AM
At one time, there were only a couple of choices for motor oil. Today, that is no longer the case, and hasn't been for quite some time. Here's a quick breakdown of what you need to consider when it's time for an oil change: Viscosity: Viscosity is how thick your oil is, and how it retains its pour properties at various temperatures. In this respect, synthetic oil is far superior. Conventional oils will thicken in cold weather and thin out when very hot, while the viscosity of synthetic is muc...

The Latest in Green Tech Innovations for Tires

posted on 6/14/2016 9:10:45 AM
When it comes to your car, oil isn't the only thing there's a finite supply of. Rubber has its limits too, and it's estimated by 2020, the supply of natural rubber in the world may be outstripped by demand. And of course, tires require a great deal of oil to produce as well. Tire manufacturers are constantly looking for ways to innovate and conserve resources in tire production. Here are some recent advances: Dandelions: Yes, those humble yellow flowers you try to eliminate from your yard. Da...
