5 Easy vehicle checks each month

  • Engine Oil Level: Heat and highway miles on US-180 burn oil faster—check the dipstick once a month.

  • Tire Pressure: North-Texas temperature swings change PSI; keep tires at door-jamb spec for best fuel economy.

  • Coolant Reservoir: Texas summers cook coolant—verify between MIN and MAX.

  • Exterior Lights: Rural night driving needs full luminosity; replace bulbs ASAP.

  • Wipers & Washer Fluid: Dusty county roads clog jets—top up and switch blades yearly.

Maintenance FAQ for Mineral Wells Drivers

How often should I change my oil in Mineral Wells?

For typical commute miles and summer heat, schedule a synthetic oil change every 5,000 miles or 6 months. Short-trip or heavy-towing drivers should stick closer to 5k.

Do tires really need rotation every 6,000 miles?

Yes—rough county roads eat tread. Rotating at each oil change evens wear and extends tire life by up to 8,000 miles.

 

When should spark plugs be replaced?

Copper plugs: 30k miles • Platinum/Iridium: 60k–100k. Misfires, rough idle, or poor mileage signal sooner replacement.

 

Is a coolant flush different from topping off?

Absolutely. A coolant flush Mineral Wells removes rust and old additives. Topping off just adds volume and can dilute protection.

 

How do I know if my battery is failing?

Slow crank, dim lights at idle, or a battery older than 4 years. We offer free 5-minute load tests.
