Volvo Oil
Change Services
Changing the
oil in your vehicle at the recommended service intervals is essential to the
proper functioning of your Volvo. The oil keeps your engine running as it
should, and timely oil changes can also help to improve the efficiency of your
engine. Our dealership will use the proper oil for your vehicle, dispose of the
old oil appropriately, and in many cases, change the oil filter. Oil service
should be completed at least once per year, or every 5,000 to 7,500 miles.
Consulting with our service center, or checking your owner's manual, is the
best way to determine your Volvo's appropriate service intervals.
Alignment
and Tire Rotation Service for Your Volvo Sedan, Wagon, or SUV
Having your
alignment checked helps to determine if your Volvo's suspension is working
properly, and having an alignment completed can help to avoid damage to the
springs that are involved. An alignment every six months to one year for normal
driving conditions is typically sufficient for most Volvo models. Having tire
rotation completed after the first 3,000-miles on your Volvo and every
6,000-miles after that can help to extend the life of your tires, which can
enhance safety and save you money.
Brake
Service for Your Volvo Vehicle
Since the
brakes on your Volvo are perhaps one of the most important safety features of
your vehicle, having regular servicing completed should be a top priority.
Checking and replacing the brake pads, rotors, and sensors, when necessary, can
help to keep your Volvo even safer on the roadway. Many Volvo vehicles
recommend completing brake service at the same interval as tire rotations, so
you should aim for every six months or 6,000 miles.
Avoiding
expensive repairs like replacing the rotors can be achieved by following the
recommended brake servicing protocol for your Volvo. Many of our customers at
Volvo Cars of Marietta have their brakes checked at the same time as their
alignment or tire rotation service, so you can save additional time by
scheduling these services together.
Other
Servicing Needs for Your Volvo
Replacing
air filters and having your belts and hoses checked regularly can also help to
avoid costly repair services for your Volvo. If your check engine light or
maintenance lights are illuminated, it's always best to schedule your Volvo to
be serviced at your earliest convenience. When these items are handled
promptly, other repairs can often be avoided, so you won't have to pay for
services or lose time having your Volvo repaired, unnecessarily.
