Whenever we talk about exhaust service, most people normally think about exhaust pipes and mufflers. Well, actually, exhaust service is a lot more comprehensive these days. For example, catalytic converters were mandated in 1976 and on-board emission control computers in 1990. Governmental emissions requirements have forced manufacturers to come up with much more sophisticated ways to comply with environmental regulations. Exhaust service has really become exhaust and emissions service. High-tech computer controlled emissions devices are now a big part of exhaust service. Because it is so sophisticated, your vehicle manufacturer recommends you have your emission system checked out by a qualified Chicago exhaust technician regularly to make sure everything is working right â?? usually every 6 months or 10,000 miles/16,000 kilometers. If your Check Engine light comes on, especially if itâ??s flashing, get your car looked at right away. Technicians at Triangle Auto Service handle emission problems everyday. You might have exhaust or emissions trouble if your car is difficult to start, runs rough, is noisy or smoking.
Richard Petty once said, â??Youâ??ve gotta have good brakes. If youâ??ve got good brakes you can keep yourself out of a lotta trouble.â? Thatâ??s why a regular brake inspection is on every Chicago carâ??s maintenance schedule. An inspection at Triangle Auto Service will check your brake system and let you know if there are any problems. Of course, if youâ??re having trouble with your brakes, get your car into Triangle Auto Service right away. Here are some symptoms to watch for: Low or spongy brake pedal Hard brake pedal A brake warning light that stays on Constantly squealing or grinding brakes Vibrations or clunking sounds when you apply your brakes If you are experiencing any of these, itâ??s time to get your brakes checked. There are two types of brakes: disc and drum. Disc brakes have a rotor thatâ??s attached to the axle. Calipers straddle the rotor, kind of like the brakes on a bicycle. Drum brakes are more common on back wheels. Both types have pads or shoes that press against the brakes and slow the vehicle. Brake pads and shoes are made out of very tough material to withstand the heat and force generated when stopping your car.
Please feel free to call or stop in, we can check your vehicle to be sure it is operating to manufactures spec's which will incerease fuel economy. Triangle auto service, 4060 N.
