Regular oil changes are crucial to your vehicle’s health. Do you know when and how to check your car’s oil? Improvements in oil and engine technology mean that we can now go much longer between oil changes, but it’s imperative that you regularly check your oil level. Always remember to check your owner’s manual for specifics for your Honda, and if you have questions on how to check oil level in your car, call the service department at Honda of Kirkland.
Some newer vehicle models have electronic oil monitors that don’t use traditional oil dipsticks, so first check your owner’s manual for the auto manufacturer’s recommendations. These are the steps for how to check the oil in your car:
Dipsticks always have some way of indicating the proper oil level, usually with a mark. If the top of your oil streak is between two marks or within a crosshatched area, the level is okay. If it isn’t, you’ll need to add some more oil. Check your owner’s manual to see what type of oil you need, or call the service center at Honda of Kirkland.
You should check your car’s oil level about once a month to prevent any problems when out on Redmond roads. Also, be aware of things like changes in your oil’s color and texture as they can be signs of serious problems. If you notice that you’re low on oil or need service on your Honda, schedule service with Honda of Kirkland today!
Now that you know how to check oil in your car, if you would rather not change your oil yourself, Honda of Kirkland can do it for you. We are always at your service and just a short drive from Woodinville and Seattle. We also have new tires and car accessories as well as a wide variety of service specials to help you save on your next visit. Call us today to schedule an appointment at our dealership!
Your vehicle’s cabin air filter helps remove allergens, particulates, and odors from the interior of your vehicle, keeping things nice and fresh. The cabin air filter also helps keep your interior clean, by removing dust from the air. Like all filters, your Honda’s cabin air filter will become clogged over time. As the filter becomes clogged, it will work less efficiently…you’ll get less airflow, more dust, more odors, etc.
If you suffer from allergies, asthma, or a great sense of smell, you NEED to replace your Honda’s Cabin Air Filter on a regular basis. And an OEM replacement is best, as Honda specifies the amount of filtration for each specific system. Some after-market filters are too light, meaning they won’t filter enough air. Other filters are too heavy, which will strain your vehicle’s HVAC system.
Prices may vary by model. Plus taxes and fees where applicable. Please present coupon during write-up. Not to be combined with any other discounts.
