S T Foreign Auto Service Vive la Differential at S T Foreign Auto Service in SyracusePosted October 20, 2019 11:57 AMThere are a lot of drivers in Syracuse who are due for a differential service, but had never heard of a differential before. With front-wheel drive being so common in NY these days, the differential is just taken care of during a transmission service, so most Syracuse folks don't even have to think about it. And rear-wheel drive differentials don't need to be serviced for years, so it's understandable that it's not something on the top of your mind. It's not uncommon for people in Syracuse to not know they have a differential, let alone know that it needs service. S T Foreign Auto Service Hey Syracuse Drivers: How Do You Save Gas?Posted October 13, 2019 9:15 AMHigher Syracuse fuel prices aren't going away any time soon. That's not good news for our wallets. A lot of Syracuse drivers are trying to find ways to cut down on fuel consumption and hang on to some of their hard-earned money. We haven't mentioned the pills you can drop in your gas tank or special devices you can hook on your fuel line in order to increase fuel efficiency. There's a simple reason for that: they don't exist. There may be some truth behind some of these claims, but most of them are full-out scams. And if any of these things do actually help, it's not nearly as much as the things we've listed here. S T Foreign Auto Service Automotive Tips from S T Foreign Auto Service: Causes of Wheel MisalignmentPosted October 6, 2019 10:28 AMWhen properly aligned, all of your wheels are pointed in the same direction. Your vehicle will track true and handle the way it is designed. Syracuse drivers often associate our wheels being “knocked” out of alignment with an event like a major crash, hitting a pothole, curb or some other object. While these can certainly take your wheels out of alignment, the bumps and bounces of everyday Syracuse driving take their toll on wheel alignment as well. Your car can lose alignment over time with just normal driving. When your wheels are out of alignment, the team of automotive professionals at S T Foreign Auto Service in Syracuse can return your wheels to the factory settings. Most owners’ manuals suggest an inspection every year or two. | ||
