Car Maintenance Tips from Toyota of Orlando!

Toyota of Orlando is excited to be able to provide Toyota drivers in Central Florida not only with high quality automotive service, but also with car maintenance tips so you can keep your vehicle running in top-notch condition all year long! 

First of all, pay attention to individual elements of your car, such as the battery! We all know that without the battery, the car isn’t going anywhere - so note not only corrosion on the exterior (which can interfere with the battery’s functioning) but also to the battery’s life! When you’re due for a replacement, don’t hesitate - have Toyota of Orlando simply drop a new one into your vehicle. 

You should also pay attention to the timing belts in your car - i.e., the belts that synchronize the timing of the engine. When one of these breaks, it can cause major internal issues that can put a huge dent in your wallet. Have them checked whenever you bring your car into Toyota of Orlando for service, and be mindful of when they need to be replaced. 

Don’t forget about the air conditioning - a vital necessity in sticky Orlando summers. You want your AC to run ice cold, so that means you need to make sure the refrigerant is at the proper level. Toyota of Orlando can top it off for you, but it needs to be periodically flushed and refilled. Don’t sweat it - Toyota of Orlando has got your AC needs covered! 

Finally, the windshield wipers! Windshield wipers that don’t do their job can cut down on your visibility, making already hazardous driving conditions even more dangerous. If you see streaks or hear squeaking noises, it’s time to get them replaced! You can do it yourself (and buy them at the Parts Center at Toyota of Orlando), or bring your car into our Toyota Service Center in Central Florida and we’ll take care of it for you! 

Give your car a long and healthy life - and pop into Toyota of Orlando a visit today if you have any questions or service needs!
