Proper Fluid Levels Important for Chevys Says Ron Carter Houston Dealership

Proper Fluid Levels Important for Chevys Says Ron Carter Houston Dealership

In order to maintain a reliable, fully-functioning vehicle Ron Carter Chevrolet, our experts recommend checking your engine's fluid levels often, even if you do not expect a problem.

Here are some tips for keeping fluids on the level:

Brake Fluid

Naturally reddish-brown in color, dark fluid should signal its time for replacement. Any levels that are low are usually due to a leak so have your brake lines checked if you notice low fluid levels.

Engine Oil

Keep your engine running when checking your oil levels if you have an automatic transmission. For manual vehicles, turn off the engine. Clean off the initial oil from the dipstick and reinsert to get a more accurate reading. Add one quart of oil at a time until proper levels have been reached. Have your oil and filter changed as per the manufacturer's instructions.

Radiator Fluids

To maintain your cooling system properly, make sure your fluid levels are always good. Add equal parts water and coolant to proper fill levels.

Transmission Fluids

Automatic Chevrolets should be left running while you check your transmission fluid levels but manuals should be turned off. Any low level of fluid in the transmission signifies a leak. If the normally reddish-brown color is dark, it means it is time for a change.

If you prefer, Ron Carter Chevrolet's Houston service center provides all your fluid maintenance checks, changes and refills so be sure to stop by our dealership and schedule an appointment today to keep your Chevy running in top notch condition.
