The 6 Most Important Automotive Fluids

In addition to gas, your car needs quite a lot of other fluids to run properly. The most important ones are:

  1. Motor Oil – This liquid lubricates the internal parts of your engine to help prevent damage from wear, rust, dust and high heat. The quantity, change frequency and type of oil depends on many factors. Your vehicle manufacturer will recommend guidelines to keep your engine running at maximum efficiency. In both newer cars and classic cars, your regular mechanic should perform oil changes for you. The color and texture of your vehicles used oil can sometimes alert them to engine problems before they become serious.
  2. Transmission Fluid – This fluid lubricates and cools your automatic transmission system. Because it is maintained under pressure, a leak, even a slow one can cause havoc. Routine checks and proper level extend the life of your transmission. Note: vehicles with manual transmission use fluid too.
  3. Antifreeze – Helps protect the water in your radiator from either boiling or freezing. It also helps prevent corrosion and provides lubrication to your water pump.
  4. Washer Fluid – This is pretty self explanatory.
  5. Brake Fluid – This is a vital liquid. It allows you to operate your brakes. It is also maintained under pressure and should be checked during regular maintenance (every oil change).
  6. Power Steering Fluid – Another fluid important to your ability to safely operate your car. It helps makes the steering process smooth and reactive.

Make sure that maintaining the proper levels is part of your routine maintenance procedure. It is a good idea to have your regular mechanic perform these procedures for you, because a good one can diagnose other repair problems through observing the color, viscosity, and amount of fluid used between visits.

Just like the shoes on your feet, you vehicle needs a strong foundation to keep all it’s other systems in check.

Your wheels and tires should be the proper fit for your vehicle and if you maintain proper air pressure and even tread wear, you can make your investment last much longer. Aside from appearance and stability, safety is also a key purpose for keeping a good set of tires on your care, at the proper pressure.

Wheel alignment is actually very straight forward. The three components of wheel alignment, Caster, Camber and Toe keep your car going straight. Newer cars on need one of these components adjusted, but your older, classic cars need the more experienced technician to ensure the proper measurements for optimum performance.

A routine pressure check, tread wear measurement, rotation and alignment is recommended maintenance on all vehicles.

We can take your old classic car and refurbish the vehicle to meet your needs.

Amanda Katz

VintageWorks1 has the knowledge and experience to accomplish top-notch racecar builds.

Their knowledge of racecar setup took my car from handling well to near perfect with a racing alignment and corner balance. Every person that has driven my car on track comments about the handling! They also have great knowledge of part selection. I tasked them with installing a fire suppression system and I was very pleased with how professional the install was. If you need work done I highly recommend them and they are the shop I send my friends to.
