Our Tune Up Service In Ajax Includes:


Specific parts that are inspected and replaced in a tune-up can vary depending on the make and model of the vehicle, as well as the condition of the engine. However, here are some of the common parts that are inspected and replaced in our typical engine tune-up service:


  • Spark plugs replacement: The spark plugs are the parts responsible for igniting the fuel-air mixture in the engine's cylinders. They are usually replaced every 30,000 kilometers, although this can vary depending on the type of spark plugs used.


  • Fuel filter change: The fuel filter helps to keep the engine's fuel system clean by filtering out any impurities or debris. It should be replaced every 20,000 to 40,000 kilometers, or as recommended by the vehicle's manufacturer.


  • Air filter replacement: The air filter helps to prevent dirt and other debris from entering the engine's air intake system. It should be replaced every 10,000 to 20,000 kilometers, or as recommended by the vehicle's manufacturer.


  • Oil and oil filter change: The oil lubricates the engine's moving parts and helps to prevent wear and tear. It should be changed every 5,000 to 7,500 kilometers, or as recommended by the vehicle's manufacturer.


  • Belts and hoses inspection: The engine's belts and hoses should be inspected for any signs of wear and tear or damage. If they are cracked or damaged, they should be replaced.


  • Battery inspection: The battery should be tested to ensure it's holding a charge and functioning properly. If it's not, it should be replaced.


  • Distributor cap and rotor (if applicable): The distributor cap and rotor are responsible for distributing the electrical current to the spark plugs. If they are worn or damaged, they should be replaced.


In addition to these parts, our tune-up may also involve checking the engine's timing, adjusting the idle speed and mixture, and performing other maintenance procedures as needed. 


By performing a tune-up, you can help to keep your engine running smoothly and efficiently, which can help to extend its lifespan and reduce the risk of costly repairs down the road.

When Should You Have An Engine Tune Up?


The specific schedule for when you should have an engine tune-up can vary depending on the make and model of your vehicle, as well as the driving conditions and habits.


As a general rule, most car manufacturers recommend having an engine tune-up every 30,000 to 100,000 kilometers, or every two to five years. However, some modern vehicles may require less frequent tune-ups due to advancements in technology and the use of more durable parts.


Additionally, if you notice any of the following signs, it may be time for an engine tune-up:


  • Decreased fuel efficiency

  • Rough idling or stalling

  • Difficulty starting the engine

  • Poor acceleration or engine performance

  • Unusual engine noises or vibrations

  • Illuminated check engine light


If you experience any of these symptoms, it is recommended that you take your vehicle for a diagnostic check-up to determine if an engine tune-up is necessary.

Winter Tune Up vs Summer Tune Up


A winter tune-up and a summer tune-up are both types of maintenance services for your vehicle, but they differ in their focus and the specific tasks involved.


Winter Tune Up For Your Vehicle


A winter tune-up is usually performed in preparation for the cold weather months. During a winter tune-up, the mechanic will focus on checking and testing the vehicle's battery, ignition system, antifreeze/coolant levels and condition, heating system, and tires. The mechanic may also replace the windshield wipers and check the brakes and other critical safety components.

Summer Tune Up For Your Vehicle


A summer tune-up is generally performed in preparation for hot weather driving. During a summer tune-up, the mechanic will focus on checking and testing the vehicle's air conditioning system, cooling system, battery, tires, brakes, and engine performance. The mechanic may also replace the air filter, spark plugs, and fuel filter.


A winter tune-up and summer tune-up are both important for maintaining your vehicle's performance and safety, but they focus on different aspects of your car to ensure that it is ready for the specific weather conditions of the season.
