Your Acura’s sporty handling, responsive steering, fine-tuned suspension, and stunning good looks will remain so with expert maintenance. The technicians at our Acura dealership can keep your Acura at its very best with the following upkeep services.

Clean, Wax, & Detail Your Car

The better your car looks, the more diligently you’ll keep up with maintenance. Regular cleaning and biannual waxing will help to preserve your Acura’s gleaming exterior. Also, twice a year or more, have the entire car professionally detailed, inside and out, to keep it looking and smelling like new.

Change the Oil & Coolant on Time

Your Acura’s powerful engine requires the protection of oil and coolant. Always use the optimal motor oil for your model, as directed in the owner’s manual.

Have your oil changed twice a year, or more frequently if your driving habits warrant it. Coolant typically only needs to be flushed every two or three years. It’s wise to book yearly cooling system inspections, so our technicians can monitor the condition of your Acura’s radiator and coolant and flush the system when necessary.

Know Your Fluids & Keep Them Fresh

Each important vehicle fluid should be checked once a month and flushed periodically. Along with the oil and coolant, this includes brake fluid, transmission fluid, differential fluid, power steering fluid, windshield wiper fluid, and transfer case fluid if your Acura has AWD.

Keep Your Tires Aligned & Precisely Inflated

Your tires must be kept well-inflated with monthly air pressure checks. Also, make sure your tires are always properly aligned and uniform in tread wear. Twice a year is usually a good interval for tire rotations and alignments.

Have Your Brakes Routinely Inspected

Every six months, have your brakes inspected by a trusted technician. We can check each pad and rotor and make replacements when needed. We’ll also examine the brake lines and fluid for wear or leaks.

Test Your Battery & Electrical System

It’s a good idea to have your Acura’s battery and whole electrical system tested once or twice a year. If your battery is weakening, have it replaced before the arrival of freezing winter weather.

Park & Store Your Acura with Care

Also, during winter, protect your Acura from the cold with in-garage parking or at least an insulated car cover. At any time of year, if you need to store your Acura for a while, make sure to store it in optimal conditions for preservation.
