Your MINI vehicle is a car that exudes unique style, a fun personality, and zippy performance. To keep it in the same condition it was in when you first drove it away from the showroom of Fields MINI of Glencoe, getting regular MINI service is a must. But do you know when it’s time for a tune-up? Here are some telltale signs that your car is due for service at Fields MINI of Glencoe.
Decreased Fuel Efficiency
Are you making more frequent trips to the gas station? If so, it could be a sign that your MINI car isn’t running as smoothly as it once was. Because decreased fuel efficiency can be caused by several different factors, such as a dirty air filter or old spark plugs, a tune-up can help to identify the culprit.
Unusual Noises
MINI cars are known for their go-kart-like performance and handling, but they shouldn’t be making any strange noises. Noises that are a cause for concern include squealing, grinding, knocking, or any other unfamiliar sounds. They could indicate trouble with your brakes, suspension, or engine, so have our technicians take a look when you first notice the noise.
Warning Lights
Most modern MINI vehicles include a dashboard warning light system that illuminates when something is amiss. If you see any illuminated, particularly, the check engine light, don’t ignore them, as they are designed to alert you when your vehicle has potential issues.
