Get Prepared for Summer With a Tune-Up at Hewlett Volkswagen
Winter is behind us now, so it's time to review your car maintenance schedule.
We all know that winter can be particularly hard on a car, and you may have neglected something for a little too long (an oil change?).
Let our service center take a look and see what needs attention before anything becomes a more costly repair.
But first, use this checklist to make sure you’re ready for your summer road trips.
Ask Us a Question
Get an Oil Change
If you haven’t had your oil changed in a while, check your owner’s manual to see how often you need to do that. Old and dirty oil will be even more sluggish in the colder months. Check our oil change coupons to save on this important service.
Let Us Check Your BrakesBrakes are arguably the most important safety feature on your car. Bring it in for a brake inspection if you notice anything wrong with your brakes. Brake pads wear out over time and you don’t want your brakes to fail when you’re trying to stop in wet or icy conditions.
Check Your Tires
Your tires are also super important, so don't take them for granted. Do they have noticeable wear? When’s the last time you checked your tire pressure? Changes in the weather cause tire pressure to go up and down. If your tires are worn or damaged, take a look at our tire specials. Putting on new tires is easier than putting yourself and family at risk.
Check Your Battery
Cold weather can be hard on batteries. What might have seemed like a small issue in the summer could result in a dead battery in the winter. Don’t get caught on the side of the road. Let us check your battery for you, and replace it if needed.
Check Engine Light
When your car’s Check Engine light is on, that might mean there’s a problem that needs attention. If you've been driving with your Check Engine light on, schedule an appointment so we can determine what’s wrong. Don't head into winter driving with an undiagnosed issue that could turn into a major problem.
Or Maybe It's Time for a New Car...
We’re sorry, availability of some equipment, options or features may be limited due to global supply issues affecting the auto industry. Please be sure to verify that the vehicle you purchase includes all expected features and equipment.

How Can Our Volkswagen Service Center Help?
Check Your Heater & Defroster
You probably haven’t used your heater since last spring so make sure to test that every vent is blowing hot air. And check your front and rear window defrosters to ensure that they are working properly. If they’re taking too long to heat up, you may need to have your heater and defroster systems serviced. You’ll be glad you did…in January.
Replace Windshield Wipers & Check Washer Fluid
Windshield wipers don’t last as long as you’d think (or want). You may have noticed streaks on your windshield, so check them now before bad weather arrives. Replace your windshield wipers and check your washer fluid to make sure it’s full. Now is also a good time to inspect your windshield. If you notice any cracks or chips, give us a call to have it checked.
Replace the Cabin Air Filter
A clogged cabin air filter can dramatically reduce airflow through your car's heater, stressing the blower and even the engine. Having your filter replaced will save you time and money in the long run.
Give Your Car a Long Overdue Cleaning
Make sure to take your car to your local car wash and give it a full cleaning inside and out. Make sure to vacuum the interior too. Taking care of your vehicle inside and out ensures you'll get the most resale value when you choose to sell or trade it in.
Regular maintenance makes your car perform better, gives it a longer life, and helps you stay safer on the road. We understand and we also want your car to work its best and last a good, long time.
Schedule service with us after you check your car maintenance schedule and do the work we recommend above.
And remember: we may be the nearest, and best, car maintenance to you. Get quality and value. Trust the Hewlett Volkswagen service center.
