Engine and Exhaust System

• Oil Change
  Dashboard indicators can often mean that there is something seriously wrong with an automobile. It isn’t a good idea to put off having your vehicle checked once the dashboard light has indicated a problem. Common dashboard indicator lights include: the check engine light, the battery light, a coolant temperature or thermostat warning, an oil change reminder or oil pressure light, an ABS or brake system light, a reduced power warning, or tire pressure light. Some makes and models of vehicles are also quipped with a “Service Vehicle Soon” light. This really does mean that the vehicle should be checked over by a certified mechanic.
