At Auto Care By Kenely, Inc in Orangevale, CA, we know that over the past decade, depending on what type of car, truck, or SUV you drive, it may seem like oil changes have gotten more expensive, and there are more options from synthetic to standard 10w/30 oil.  What kind is best for your vehicle and is the higher price worth the cost? 

man adjusting rearview mirror

There are a lot of drivers on the road today with improperly adjusted rearview mirrors, contributing to unnecessary blind spots and potentially hazardous driving conditions. At Auto Care By Kenely, Inc in Orangevale, we place a lot of value on efficiency; here’s how to get the most out of your mirrors.

muffler system

The exhaust on your truck is an important series of components, that work together to insure smooth, reliable operation. At Auto Care By Kenely, Inc in Orangevale, CA, we also know that exhaust systems are especially susceptible to damage and rust; pipes, mufflers, and other parts are exposed to hazards on the road, and to the environment. This situation, combined with caustic emissions and extreme heat, create a perfect opportunity for problems to arise.

gas tanks

At Auto Care By Kenely, Inc in Orangevale, efficiency is a concept that interests us. While your fuel economy is largely dependent on what kind of car, truck, or SUV you drive, there are a variety of tips and tricks to get the most bang for your buck. We’ve provided a few of our favorites here.

Automatic transmissions are the default now - with efficiency approaching or surpassing that of manual transmissions, and automatics with 8 or 10 electronically controlled gears, it’s no surprise they’ve gained so much popularity over the past few decades. But where did it all start? Auto Care By Kenely, Inc in Orangevale, CA has the answers.

gas cap

At Auto Care By Kenely, Inc in Orangevale, we know that some of the most elusive issues with any car, truck, or SUV are often caused by the simplest of malfunctions. While you might consider a gas cap fairly innocuous, it can actually malfunction too, prompting a check engine light on your dashboard.

transmission

Does your car, truck, or SUV shift at the wrong moment? Auto Care By Kenely, Inc in Orangevale has the solution. Shift point issues can manifest themselves in two ways; either your car will rapidly shift through several or all the gears at low speed, low rpm, getting to the highest gear before you’ve gained enough momentum, or shifts will be delayed, the transmission refusing to shift until far into the RPM range. 

belt for vehicle

At Auto Care By Kenely, Inc in Orangevale, our goal is to keep your truck maintained, so you’re never stuck out on the road. Drive belts are a critical part of that goal.
