FUCHS 5 Point Oil Protection Guarentee
- Maintains engine lubrication. Imagine all the moving parts, pistons, valves, and other engine parts moving at high rates of speed under the hood of a car. These components create heat and will wear down the engine dramatically without proper oil lubrication.
- Cools engine components. Moving parts that lack proper lubrication create friction, which in turn creates heat. Maintaining clean and sufficient amounts of oil is the perfect solution to prevent too much friction and over-heating of the engine.
- Removes engine wear particles and sludge. Dirt particles are deadly to engines. Over time, dirt can cause corrosion and decrease the life of an engine. Also as time goes on, oil breaks down and turns to “sludge.” The name of the game is to keep the engine clean. Routine oil and filter changes help remove particles and sludge and keep engines at peak condition.
- Improves fuel efficiency. Poor engine lubrication can lead to increased fuel consumption, so make sure there is enough clean oil in the engine. The RACQ says that with routine changes and the right kind of oil, fuel efficiency can be improved over time by 1-2%. That doesn’t sound like much of an improvement, but for the average car, it leads to savings of 10 litres of fuel over a year!
- Promotes vehicle longevity. Plain and simple, routine maintenance makes your vehicle last longer. Buildup from dirty oil robs a vehicle’s fuel economy and power, and makes internal components work harder. An engine that works too hard will end up having more problems down the road as well as a shorter life span.
Something Every Asthma Sufferer Should Know
Protect Your Family From Allergy Causing Pollutants
Just because the windows are up in your car, does not mean you or your passengers are protected from air born contaminants. People with asthma, allergy and other respiratory problems are especially at risk when exposed to concentrations of pollutants. There is a simple way to protect your family.
Improving Cabin Air Quality
The air inside our vehicles has been found to have a much higher concentration of pollutants than in the air just outside the vehicle – up to 10 times in some cases. A number of harmful pollutants are found inside the cabin, including …
Pollen- Fungus
- Bacteria
- Dirt
- Dust
People with asthma, allergy and other respiratory problems are especially at risk when concentrations of pollutants are elevated inside the vehicle.
Contaminants in the air such as pollen, fungus spores, dirt and dust pass unfiltered into the passenger cabin, along with the air intake and can trigger asthma, allergies, headaches, nausea, fatigue and giddiness.
Breathe Easy With Dan’s Elite Auto
There are a number of ways that you can protect the health of family and friends travelling with you.
The first is to ask Dan to check your cabin air filter. There is a cabin air filter fitted to most vehicles built since the late 1990’s. View our AutoFact video to learn more about how your cabin air filter works.
These filters are designed to reduce the amount of harmful contaminants entering into your vehicle via the heating ventilation and air conditioning system, whilst providing a much cleaner breathing environment for you and your passenger. It also helps keep the interior of your vehicle cleaner due to reduced dust entering the cabin, along with protecting vehicle occupants from harmful gases such as exhaust and ozone.
The second way to improve the quality of the air you breathe inside your vehicle is to ask Dan about one of the effective treatments that can be applied directly to the vents of your air conditioning units to eliminate harmful bacteria and odours lurking in the system.
