Paying attention to regular maintenance and driving smoothly can extend the lifespan of your engine and other Mazda parts significantly. Follow these tips to reduce strain on your engine and come in to Sansone Mazda for a full check-up today!

Regular Maintenance

Nothing keeps your car running its best longer than following the recommended maintenance schedule. This includes major milestones that require comprehensive service, but also intermittent steps like changing your oil. Check your owner’s manual for the service schedule and come in for a regular checkup to stay out on the road longer.

Drive Smoothly

How you drive can have a major impact on your engine’s lifespan. Sudden starts and stops, especially when your car has just started and hasn’t warmed up yet, put much more strain on the engine than smooth acceleration and stops. Leaving the car to idle also shortens its lifespan, and it wastes energy and gasoline.

Maintain Fluid Levels

Each of the fluids in your car has its own essential function, and if any run low, your engine can be damaged. Ensure your oil, coolant, transmission fluid, and brake fluid are all topped up, especially at regular maintenance milestones. Look in your owner’s manual for a recommended fluid change schedule.
