Brake Discs

• If your brake pads are worn, you’ll hear a screeching sound when pushing the brake pedal

Brake Pads

• Important to keep braking system at optimal working condition

• Worn brake pads reduce the effectiveness of your braking and could potentially cause collisions

• Durable and long-lasting brake pads result in better car performance and less maintenance

Spark Plugs

• Spark plugs ignite the air and fuel mixture to get your vehicle moving

• If you have trouble starting your vehicle, spark plugs are a common reason

• If your vehicle accelerates slowly, then it could also be due to spark plugs

Air Filter

Oil Filter

• Oil filters help to remove contaminants from the car engine’s oil

• Often replaced whenever your oil is changed

• If you drive in severe conditions like stop-and-go traffic or need to tow heavy objects, then you’ll need to replace your oil filter more frequently

Pollen Filter

• Recommended to be replaced every 30,000 miles, but can change depending on driving conditions and the manual

Fuel Filter

• Removes dust, dirt and rust particles from your fuel
