Asset 7 Automotive News
  • Vehicle Tips

    According to recent studies, 5 percent of all motor vehicle fatalities are clearly caused by automobile maintenance neglect.

  • Vehicle Tips

    The cooling system should be completely flushed and refilled about every 24 months. The level, condition, and concentration of coolant should be checked. (A 50/50 mix of anti-freeze and water is usually recommended.)

  • Vehicle Tips

    Never remove the radiator cap until the engine has thoroughly cooled. The tightness and condition of drive belts, clamps and hoses should be checked by a pro.

  • Vehicle Tips

    Change your oil and oil filter as specified in your manual, or more often (every 3,000 miles) if you make frequent short jaunts, extended trips with lots of luggage or tow a trailer.

  • Vehicle Tips

    Replace other filters (air, fuel, PCV, etc.) as recommended, or more often in dusty conditions. Get engine drivability problems (hard stops, rough idling, stalling, diminished power, etc.) corrected at a good shop.

  • Vehicle Tips

    A dirty windshield causes eye fatigue and can pose a safety hazard. Replace worn blades and get plenty of windshield washer solvent.

  • Vehicle Tips

    Have your tires rotated about every 5,000 miles. Check tire pressures once a month; let the tires cool down first. Don't forget your spare and be sure your jack is in good condition.

  • Vehicle Tips

    Check your owner's manual to find out what fuel octane rating your car's engine needs then buy it.

  • Vehicle Tips

    Keep your tires inflated to the proper levels. Under-inflated tires make it harder for your car to move down the road, which means your engine uses more fuel to maintain speed.

  • Vehicle Tips

    Lighten the load. Heavier vehicles use more fuel, so clean out unnecessary weight in the passenger compartment or trunk before you hit the road.

  • Vehicle Tips

    Use the A/C sparingly. The air conditioner puts extra load on the engine forcing more fuel to be used.

  • Vehicle Tips

    Keep your windows closed. Wide-open windows, especially at highway speeds, increase aerodynamic drag and the result is up to a 10% decrease in fuel economy.

  • Vehicle Tips

    Avoid long idling. If you anticipate being stopped for more than one minute, shut off the car. Contrary to popular belief, restarting the car uses less fuel than letting it idle.

  • Vehicle Tips

    Stay within posted speed limits. The faster you drive, the more fuel you use. For example, driving at 65 miles per hour (mph) rather than 55 mph, increases fuel consumption by 20 percent.

  • Vehicle Tips

    Use cruise control. Using cruise control on highway trips can help you maintain a constant speed and, in most cases, reduce your fuel consumption.

  • Vehicle Tips

    Keep your engine tuned. A fouled spark plug or plugged/restricted fuel injector can reduce fuel efficiency as much as 30 percent.

  • Vehicle Tips

    Inspect the engine's belts regularly. Look for cracks or missing sections or segments. Worn belts will affect the engine performance.

  • Vehicle Tips

    Have the fuel filter changed every 10,000 miles to prevent rust, dirt and other impurities from entering the fuel system.

  • Vehicle Tips

    Change the transmission fluid and filter every 15,000 to 18,000 miles. This will protect the precision-crafted components of the transmission/transaxle.

  • Vehicle Tips

    Inspect the suspension system regularly. This will extend the life of the vehicle's tires.

    Their are few words that come to mind about the service at Paul's shop. If I say anything about it you couldn't real understand. 1st paul garlish never lies to a customer witch is unique and honorable. he does superior quality work . he is gifted with the ability to lessen also unique. His prices and very easy on the wallet I am totally sold and now have a reliable source for my car repairs.

    I came to Garlisch Automotive Services with a laundry list of issues with my truck. Just listening to the symptoms he was able to diagnose a single source for most of the problems. He then went above and beyond,encouraging me to keep an eye out for certain things in the future before they become major headaches. I strongly endorse Garlisch Automotive Services for all your automotive work, even 4WD trucks.

    Paul did an amazing job fixing my van with no hassles and impeccable timing. A great mechanic with competitive prices and a positive attitude! Thanks again for everything!

  • reviewicon
    Paul was incredible working on my car. He checked and double checked to be sure it really needed an expensive repair. He was scrupulously honest with me. In the end, he told me that the repair choice I made would get a better warrantee if the dealer did the work. How's that for honest. I'll be back.

  • reviewicon
    Paul is just a awesome guy. Just needed a simple oil change and he had the best price around. But the reason I will keep coming back is he is so honest and easy to talk with. He really cares for his customers and that is very refreshing.

  • reviewicon
    I took my vehicle to Paul for a quote on some repairs. Ultimately, I ended up not doing the repairs but decided to get a new vehicle instead. I was amazed that I did not have to pay anything for the quote that I received. Many other shops will charge you just to look at your vehicle. Garlisch Automotive Services is now the first place that I'll go for service on any of my vehicles. Paul truly cares about your vehicle and you as customer. Genuine shops like this are rare and I'm glad to have found this one.

  • reviewicon

    We truly appreciate how fair, honest, and upfront Paul is when we bring our cars to his shop to be serviced. We are thankful we stumbled upon his coupon in a magazine. We trust his opinions and we know that he's working in our best interest to make sure our car is well kept, safe, and ready to roll. Paul is always a pleasant person to chat with too, making the whole experience easy and comfortable.
