Warm weather or cold, Carmel drivers still need to think about their vehicle's air conditioning. Most Carmel people don't service their air conditioning until after it fails. At Xpress Pro Tire & Auto Carmel , we can advise you on your vehicle manufacturers preventive maintenance schedules for air conditioning service, just as we do for transmission service, oil changes and so on.
Maintaining your air conditioning system means that you always have enough refrigerant to properly do the job. Small leaks in the vehicle's air conditioning system allow the refrigerant to escape and the system can't cool the air as well. We see that a lot at Xpress Pro Tire & Auto Carmel in Carmel.
The refrigerant also contains oil that lubricates air conditioning components and keeps the seals resilient. Low refrigerant and lubricating oil means that the air conditioning parts will wear out prematurely, and all Carmel vehicle owners know that air conditioning repairs can be costly. At Xpress Pro Tire & Auto Carmel , we recommended that the air conditioner be run regularly, even during winter months, to keep the parts and seals lubricated.
Carmel drivers need to be aware that there's one more thing that isn't directly related to air conditioning service but does impact the quality of the air in your vehicle. And that's your cabin air filter. This filter cleans dust, pollen, pollution and other impurities in the air that come from the heater and air conditioner. The cabin air filter needs to be replaced when it's dirty. If you don't, it'll start to smell. Not all vehicles have one, so ask your Xpress Pro Tire & Auto Carmel service advisor to check your cabin air filter at the same time they're doing your air conditioning service.

Few of us ever drive somewhere without encountering some pretty rough roads, and it's amazing how well our vehicles are able to smooth out the ride. Thank your shocks and struts. The two parts are similar. Some cars have shocks in the rear, and struts in the front. Others have struts all around... More

Most Carmel folks occasionally have days when they've got a bunch of errands to run. Yesterday was my day off and I needed to fill the gas tank, pick up some groceries at my Carmel market, swing by the ATM and get the kids from school. I could have made four trips . . . but that would have been... More
