What is an Engine Tune-Up?

Tune-up's consist of inspecting your vehicle's engine, analyzing its performance, and making adjustments to your car that's needed for it to run its best. The small tune up services include replacing necessary car parts like spark plugs, cabin air filters, and fuel filters as your car needs it. When you need a tune up can depend on the age of your vehicle. Older used cars with non-electric ignition systems should get a tune-up once every 10,000 to 20,000 miles. Newer cars should try to get one once every 30,000 to 100,000 miles. We recommend consulting your vehicle owner’s manual for the manufacturer’s recommendation or asking one of our expert technicians.
