One Stop Shop for all of Your Vehicle Maintenance Services and Inspection Needs

by Steve Sorensen Browns Plains Car Services As a vehicle owner, you know that buying and maintaining a vehicle costs time, money and effort. So anything you can do that will reduce any or all of these factors, is a real bonus. You will be happy to know then, that there are 3 strategies you can employ that will reduce all of these issues and make vehicle ownership much less troublesome for you in the future.

A pre purchase inspection

Arranging a pre purchase inspection of a second hand vehicle you are considering buying, is a great way to ensure that you do not end up with a lemon. Any mistake at this stage, can end up costing you more than the value of the car, so having confidence that the vehicle is safe and in good working order is definitely worth the cost of a pre purchase inspection.

Vehicle maintenance services

Once you have purchased your vehicle, having regular vehicle maintenance services, whether performed by yourself, a friend, relative or a local mechanic are vital to ensuring the safety of your vehicle. There are however, some services that need to be performed by a skilled mechanic, so by all means do the smaller jobs yourself if you feel comfortable with these and then send your vehicle off for a skilled check-up as necessary.

Better driving practices

Keeping your vehicle in tip top shape is not always easy but it can be achieved by using some best practice driving tips:

• Avoid speeding, rapid accelerations and hard braking as these behaviours use more fuel and over the long term, cause more wear and tear on your vehicle.

• Reduce drag and save fuel by placing heavy, bulky or non-aerodynamic shaped items inside the vehicle rather than on the roof.

• Don’t leave or store heavy items in your vehicle if it can be avoided, as this increases the load on the engine, fuel costs and wear and tear.

• Avoid making lots of short trips, instead plan your trips and combine multiple trips into one journey. This saves on fuel, tyres and wear and tear on your vehicle.

An experienced and reliable local mechanic can be one stop shop for all of your vehicle maintenance services and pre purchase inspection needs. They are a true resource, helping you to prolong the life of your car and cut down on unnecessary repair bills.
