 This is a list of some things you should check and get fixed so you will be ready when you want to pack up and head for the snow!

•Batteries are much weaker in cold weather, so keep your vehicle’s battery fully charged.

•Brakes  should be checked and serviced if necessary. Even braking on all four wheels will lessen the chance of skids on slippery roads.

•Make sure your vehicle’s exhaust system has no leaks. Carbon monoxide is a silent killer and can accumulate quickly in closed vehicles.

•Make sure your wiper blades are in good condition. Keep the windshield washer reservoir filled with antifreeze solvent.

•Check the radiator, heater core and all hoses that carry anti-freeze solution to see that they are in good condition and free of leaks. Also check to see that the solution is good to at least 40 below zero.

•Make sure you have winter weight oil (usually 5W-30) in the engine.

•Tires should have M+S or All Season tread and be in good condition. 

•Emergencies can happen when you least expect them, so be sure to carry a winter survival kit in your vehicle.

Since Winter time is known to be slow months at Auto Repair Shops it is a good time to set up Apt. for Auto Repairs and Projects. One such project could be
Mufflers and Exhaust
1. What is a muffler?
A muffler is a device that is part of your vehicle’s exhaust system. The function of a muffler is to reduce the amount of noise that comes from your vehicle’s engine. The design of the muffler includes steel pipes with chambers inside that have been tuned like an instrument to reflect and cancel most of the noise coming from your engine.
2. What are the benefits of using a high performance muffler?
Not only do high performance mufflers reduce the amount of noise your car makes, they also help increase the efficiency, power output and the performance of your engine. High performance mufflers reduce the amount of back pressure in the exhaust system allowing the engine to work more efficiently. If you really want to give your vehicle a jump start, you should choose a muffler pipe that is larger in diameter and has better air intake like a “cold air intake” style.
3. What types of mufflers are there?

Exhaust Mufflers

Some of our products include: FlowMaster
Dyno Max
Magna Flow
4. How do I know which type of muffler will be best for me?
Most people don’t have a lot of knowledge about mufflers which is why most people feel a little confused and overwhelmed when choosing a muffler for their vehicle. That is where we come in. We have the knowledge and skills to best help you make your decision. We take the time to find out which type of muffler will more than meet your needs. We want our customers to know that we are here and eager to answer any question or concern you may have.
5. How do I know if I need to repair or replace my muffler?
That is a good question. If your muffler is leaking, been bent or become rusted, chances are it is time for it to be replaced. We are happy to answer any questions or concerns you may have about the condition of your muffler.

Breaking in Winter

Breaking in Winter:

     Visit Complete Auto Repair Service = CARS and let us help you halt cold weather brake problems in their tracks. We can diagnose your car problems with a Complete Vehicle Inspection, and recommend brake services.

     Snow quickly becomes liquid when it comes into contact with a warm snow which becomes rust.   Salt accelerates the rusting process.

    Some degree of surface rust is unavoidable, too much rust on your brake rotors can cause a problem known as pitting, waring away at your brake rotors, leaving them scored and rough, which allows rust particles to contaminate the brake pads.

    The first signs of wear are: weird sounds, ( squeal, squeak ) reduced stopping power, and stiff braking , or "sluggish" "lose power" feeling when you take your foot off the brake pedal, and a burning smell.

   If you notice any of these it might be time for a check up and New Tires. 

    Stop by CARS and let us make sure your car is in good running order with at tune up and check for winter safety.

Transmission at CARS Complete Auto Repair Service in Utah

   Transmission

Transmission fluid is a slippery liquid that acts as a lubricant for all of the moving parts inside your transmission. In an automatic transmission, this fluid also serves as a coolant and a viscous fluid that transmits power from the engine to the transmission.
Changing automatic transmission fluid is best left to a mechanic equipped with a transmission flusher, like this which replaces the fluid more thoroughly than you could achieve with gravity alone.
A variety of fluids are used for different transmissions. Automatic transmissions use automatic transmission fluid. Manual transmissions use a variety of oils: regular motor oil, heavyweight hypoid gear oil or even automatic transmission fluid in some cases. Your owner's manual will tell you what your transmission calls for.
Whether you have a manual or an automatic transmission. Manual: Most manufacturers recommend that manual transmission fluid be changed every 30,000 to 60,000 miles. Under heavy-duty use, some manufacturers suggest changing transmission fluid every 15,000 miles.
Automatic: Service intervals for an automatic transmission vary from every 30,000 miles. The typical service interval is 60,000 to 100,000 miles. Changing it more often does no harm.
Why should you do this?
Manual: In a manual transmission, the problem is not so much the fluid degradation, but rather fluid contamination. This contamination occurs over time as the synchronizers, bearings and gears in the transmission wear out. The resulting metal particles then float around in the lubricant. And we all know that oil with microscopic particles of metal in it does not lubricate as well as clean oil. So if these contaminants are not drained out, they will shorten the life of your transmission.
Automatic: Because more heat is generated in an automatic transmission, automatic transmission fluid actually degrades and breaks down with use.
In addition, like in a manual transmission, automatic transmission fluid will also become contaminated with worn bits of the transmission. If these contaminants are not drained out, they will shorten the life of your transmission.

What happens if 
If you don't change the transmission fluid on schedule, you'll be lubricating your transmission with metal shavings and other contaminants. This will shorten the transmission's life. In other words, changing your transmission fluid at the correct interval is a good investment.
Is there any maintenance required between intervals?
Automakers have gotten better in recent years about labeling or color-coding dipsticks. The ring on the right is red to match the automatic transmission fluid, the level of which this dipstick measures. The yellow ring is clearly marked "engine oil."
Yes, It's important to regularly check the transmission fluid level between service intervals. Letting your car run low on transmission fluid can cause the transmission to shift improperly — or not at all. It also can harm the internal parts of your transmission, which will not be properly lubricated. Unfortunately, you may not hear any noises or have other clues that your transmission is low on fluid, until it's too late. So it's important to get it checked.
Here's how you can check your transmission fluid level:
Manual: Checking the transmission fluid in a manual transmission can be difficult. A few thoughtful manufacturers have included a dipstick, but that's the exception rather than the rule. If you own a car with a manual transmission, we suggest that you ask your mechanic to check the fluid level when your car is up on the lift during an oil change. It takes just a minute.
Automatic: If you own a car with an automatic transmission, your car will have a dipstick for this purpose. Be careful not to make the common mistake of confusing the transmission dipstick with the crankcase dipstick.
