Proper Winter Car Care You Don’t Think About

Want to get the most out of your car this winter? 

Have you been putting off routine maintenance?

 

Are you afraid your car won’t start in frigid temps?

 

ArborMotion offers these tips to ensure a smooth ride all winter long, including:

 

1.     Car wash – Believe it or not, a car wash is one of the best things you can do for your car during the winter. Salt from the road can build up over time and eat away at the metal making up the undercarriage of your car.

2.     Replace old wiper blades – Newer windshield wipers will do a better job at clearing ice and snow from your windows.

3.     Top off your fluids – To ensure your engine turns over, check your owner’s manual for manufacturer recommendations about how often you need to check and top off your fluids in cold weather.

4.     Take your car for a quick drive – Don’t let your car sit for too long during really cold days. This helps warm up your engine, brakes, and transmission.

How to Spot IMS Bearing Replacement Symptoms

We don’t want you to fear an IMS bearing issue. We’re here to make your life easier and help you spot the early signs before they develop into something serious. 

But, there really aren’t many warning signs to look out for and if you own a Porsche vehicle with an M96 or M97 engine, you should be aware that the intermediate shaft bearing can fail.

 

You can do some simple checks on a routine basis like:

 

·      If you notice metallic debris in your oil filter, it probably came from the bearing.

·      Oil leaks at the rear of your engine could be a sign that oil is leaking from you rear main seal.

 

If you discover something unsettling with your Porsche, bring it to Rennstatt at ArborMotion. Our Porsche specialist will determine the heart the problem and let you know whether an IMS bearing upgrade is recommended.

Is it Time to Rebuild Your Porsche Engine?

Are you experiencing reduced power or reduced fuel efficiency?

Our Porsche experts can diagnose your problem and determine what’s causing it. Depending on the severity of the damage and age of your vehicle, we may recommend a new engine or a rebuild.

 

Benefits of Rebuilding Your Engine 

 

1.     Optimal performing engine – When a Porsche expert disassembles your engine, they’ll carefully inspect each component and all worn items will be replaced. This ensures your engine will perform as new.

2.     Rebuilding the original engine to your car keeps the cars value high versus replacing with another engine.

3.     Rebuilding your engine allows you to consider performance upgrades and also gives you peace of mind knowing that you now have the benefit of any improvements to internal parts used in your engine rebuild.

You always get personalized service. ArborMotion provides great attention to detail and has competitive pricing.

 

Here’s what our customers tell us about their 5-star experience:

 

“Prior to discovering ArborMotion, I had always gone to the dealership with my vehicles for service. However, I found that ArborMotion was more competitively priced, and I really enjoy the personalized service that I receive from them. The ArborMotion team exceeded my expectations in every way, and I've been going there ever since. I highly recommend this auto shop to anyone who is looking for the best automotive service, experts, and experience at the best price. Thanks, ArborMotion!”
