Spring has sprung and we're ready to clean out all the clutter from the winter!  As we sweep out the cobwebs in the attic., clean out the junk in the garage and do our bi-annual deep clean of the house, lets not forget the cobwebs & clutter in your mind & soul.  Try these suggestions for some inner spring cleaning:
Turn off the TV. Limit your TV watching to concentrate better on what’s going on around you.  Read, spend time with friends, or just enjoy the quiet.
Let go of anger.  Complaining or venting anger to a sympathetic friend can sometimes make things worse.  Don’t repress your emotions, but concentrate on constructive responses.
De-stress.  Find a time every day to back away from stress.  For example, use the time when brushing your teeth at night to acknowledge anything negative experienced that day.  Then focus on relaxation & peace.
Check your attitude.  We spend lots of time in the morning primping to look good for the day.  But few of us take time to mentally prepare for the day.  Ask yourself one question as you get ready to meet the world:  What kind of employee, or parent, or friend, do I plan to be today?
After you have worked on yourself, show your vehicle some attention too!!  A lot of us are busy during the winter.  Either staying inside due to the weather or busy with the holidays.  Now is the time to get outside and go over your maintenance checklist for your beloved vehicle, the piece of machinery that you rely on EVERY DAY!!!  Better yet, let us do it for you!  With spring sports in full action for your kiddos and getting back to the grind at work, your time is valuable.  We can take care of your vehicle while you take care of your obligations.  The first step would be to get that 55-point inspection done.   This is a thorough inspection of your vehicle checking fluid levels, tune-up parts, braking components, and under hood parts to ensure that everything is at peak condition.  For the next 5 (business) days, were offering this service at a discount, ONLY $100!!!  But hurry this offer ends 3/28/18.  619-562-3933

There are 3 storms expected to hit San Diego in the next week.  Is your vehicle ready for the wet conditions???  We have a few suggestions for you to get your vehicle rain-ready.
With rain storms few and far between, the roads build up oil and when the rain finally does start pouring down this oil build up makes the roads very slippery.  To help ensure that your vehicle has good traction check the tire tread.  You should inspect the condition and tread depth of your tires.  The tread on your tires is used to "grip" and when the tire is bald it becomes more susceptible to slipping.  If the tires are "bald" it's time for new ones!   If you've got plenty of tread, your next step is to check the tire pressure.  Even without the rain this should be checked on a monthly basis. An over-inflated tire will become like a balloon on the wet roads and an under-inflated tire doesn't use your tread "grip" to its fullest potential.   Making sure your tires are always at proper inflation will extend their life span as well, saving your money!!!
Now that we've covered the part of the vehicle keeping you on the road, let's discuss the driver.  As the driver of the vehicle you need to be able to see. Especially in wet weather when the roads are in a more hazardous condition to you and those around you.  Just because you did your homework and checked your tires doesn't mean the vehicle next to you did.  Next on our list is to check the condition and functionality of the windshield wipers (both windshield and back window if you've got it).  All the sun we get here in San Diego is great, except for how it deteriorates our wiper blades.  The rubber on the blade should not be stiff, cracked or ripped.  If your wiper blades have these conditions they will not be able to properly whisk the rain from your windshield leaving your visibility impaired.    We always have these in stock, stop by on your way out and grab a pair!
Headlights and tail/brake lights are needed to make sure the OTHER drivers see YOU!  Even when we are not enduring rain storms, these parts of your vehicle should be routinely checked for proper operation.  Visibility during rain storms is already impaired, lets make sure the other drivers can see you!
One last tip, and I'm sure it goes without saying, keep an extra safe distance between you and the vehicle in front of you.  The slippery road makes braking conditions a bit less reliable.

We hope your find these tips useful or at least serve as a reminder!
