Your transmission plays a vital role in the performance of your car, so routine transmission maintenance is necessary to keep it running in peak condition and avoid expensive repairs. But what is transmission maintenance, why is it needed, and when should it be done? Read on to find out more about when you should schedule a transmission service at your Lexus dealer. What Is a Transmission Service and Why Should It Be Done? Services can vary depending on your specific vehicle. However, typical upkeep involves changing the filter, changing the fluid, and inspecting, cleaning, or replacing any transmission components, if needed. more Transmission fluid helps keep mechanical pieces cool and lubricated. However, the interior parts of your transmission may wear down over time, and tiny particles can contaminate the fluid, potentially leading to damage and high repair costs. Routine maintenance is essential to avoid pricey repairs or vehicle downtime due to transmission troubles down the road. What Is the Difference Between a Flush and Fluid Change? Owners have different options when selecting services, including a transmission fluid change or a transmission flush, and both techniques have pros and cons. However, most vehicles have factory recommendations concerning which type of service to perform when changing the transmission fluid and should always be followed.   A fluid change typically involves draining the fluid out with gravity, then adding fresh transmission fluid. With this method, all old fluid is not fully drained from the transmission components and is left to mix with the new liquid. In contrast, a fluid flush usually involves using a machine to flush all the fluid out of the transmission and lines until completely clean and then refilled with entirely fresh fluid. How Often Should I Have Routine Service Performed? Again, the best practice is to know factory-recommended service intervals for your car, as recommendations can vary widely from one vehicle to the next, ranging from 30,000 miles to over 100,000 miles. Always follow the factory-recommended time or mileage intervals.   No matter your vehicle type, one thing is consistent, you should never wait for problems to arise before servicing your transmission, as damage is likely already taking place, and you could be looking at costly repairs. Being proactive is always the best bet with your car, especially the transmission. Signs You Should Have Your Transmission Checked at Your Lexus Dealer Going by the manufacturer's recommendations for maintenance services is an excellent way to maintain your car's performance. Of course, issues may surface even with appropriate servicing.   If you detect difficult shifting, slipping gears, grinding gears, leaking transmission fluid, or a burnt transmission fluid smell, you should get your car to a technician as soon as possible. Continuing to drive your vehicle with transmission problems may likely cause more issues.   Keeping up with vehicle maintenance is crucial to its performance and lifespan. So whether you need routine transmission maintenance or a different type of service, our service team is here to help! Contact DARCARS Lexus of Greenwich if you have questions or schedule a service appointment now.

A tire rotation involves swapping your tires to different positions to ensure even wear. When your tires wear evenly, it will improve your Lexus' overall handling and increase your tires' life. Below is a list of the benefits you'll reap when regularly rotating your vehicle's tires at your Lexus dealer in Greenwich, CT. Your Tires Will Wear Down Evenly Your car's front and rear tires wear down differently because of their functions. The front tires on front-wheel-drive vehicles are used for acceleration, turning, and braking and wear down faster than the rear tires. If you swap your car's tires to different positions regularly, the tires will wear down at the same rate and more evenly. more Your Tires Will Last Longer If you follow the factory-recommended rotation intervals as set out in your service schedule, we guarantee that you will not have to purchase new tires as often. If the tires are switched around at regular intervals, and all four tires wear down evenly, they will last longer. You Will Save Money Tires are expensive, and with regular rotations, you will get more life out of each of your four tires. When your front and rear tires wear down evenly, and at the same rate, you won't have to purchase new tires as often, saving you a lot of money in the long run. You'll Increase Your Vehicle's Performance Tires that wear evenly ensure that your vehicle performs better. When the tread wears down differently on all the tires, you will feel vibrations through the steering wheel at speeds higher than 45 miles an hour. Over time the vibrations can affect your wheel alignment and balancing and even cause damage to components. If you ask your Lexus technician to rotate your car's tires regularly, it will reduce uneven wear and limit vibrations. You Will Increase Your Safety on the Road When the tread wear is even across all four tires, your car will have better traction, improving your car's overall performance and your safety on the road. If the tread is uniform, it will enhance your vehicle's cornering and braking performance and stopping distance, especially in inclement weather conditions when the roads are slippery and you need that extra grip. Your Tires Will Be Thoroughly Inspected With Every Rotation The Lexus technician will perform a thorough tire inspection with every rotation. The technician will check the tread depth on each tire and inspect the tires for wear and damage, such as cuts, cracks, and bulges. Your tires will also be inflated to the correct pressure levels, promoting even wear.   If you switch your car's tires around regularly, your tires will last longer, saving you a ton of cash. A rotation is recommended every 5,000 to 8,000 miles depending on the type of vehicle you drive and your tires. Check your vehicle's owner's manual for the recommended rotation intervals for your specific model, or ask your Lexus technician for more information. For your next tire service, schedule an appointment online with DARCARS Lexus of Greenwich. We look forward to seeing you soon!

When your car needs service, you must know if your Lexus car warranty will cover the cost. What's a basic warranty, powertrain warranty, or hybrid warranty? We'll explain those terms and show you how simple your Lexus warranty is. What Does the Basic Warranty Cover? Your basic warranty is for 50,000 miles or 48 months—whichever occurs first. For wheel alignment and balancing, you're covered for 12,000 miles or 12 months, whichever occurs first. This covers the parts of the car that aren't part of the powertrain. The basic warranty covers defects and repairs on your Lexus. more Common Reasons the Basic Warranty Won't Cover a Repair The warranty won't cover your car if you've tampered with the odometer. If the warranty covered such cases, anyone could just roll back their odometer to keep the warranty in effect.   Another reason the warranty won't cover repairs is if you've not maintained your car as required by the Warranty and Services Guide. For example, if you don't change the oil as often as required, and this destroys your engine as a result, the warranty won't cover it. What Are Reasons Lexus Warranty Won't Cover a Repair?

Your Lexus will provide you with a smooth and safe driving experience for years to come. However, you must do your part by taking it in for regular maintenance and by being aware of the signs when certain elements are due for replacement. Here are the signs you need to watch for to know when it's time to take your vehicle to your Lexus service center to have your car air filter replaced. You Notice a Lack of Power When You Drive The job of your vehicle's air filter is to strain out dirt and other dangerous particles before they have a chance to run through your engine. If you feel your car straining or taking more time to accelerate, this can mean your air filter is clogged and making your engine struggle to work. more You Notice Your Air Filter Is Clogged or Dirty It's easy to check your air filter yourself by popping it out and looking at it. New air filters are a pale color, and you can see all the small holes in them. If your filter looks very dark and you see that the holes are clogged, it's time for a new one. Get in the habit of taking a quick peek at your air filter every few months. You Notice Strange Smells Coming From Your Exhaust When your air filter is clogged it allows dangerous particles to get into your engine, and it interrupts the fuel cycle. When fuel isn't able to be burned properly in your car, it will often get pushed out through the exhaust pipe. This unburned fuel will smell different than usual, so if you notice anything different, it's important to look into it as soon as possible. You Notice Dark Exhaust Coming From Your Exhaust Improperly burned fuel doesn't always create smelly exhaust, however, it can create dark exhaust. You may also hear strange sounds coming from your exhaust pipe. If any changes occur with your exhaust, have your air filter checked as soon as possible. Your fuel mileage will suffer, and your engine could suffer from costly damage if you don't get this fixed right away. You Notice Warning Codes Being Sent to You Your vehicle is equipped with an extensive warning system that will alert you as soon as something isn't working properly. If your engine isn't able to work properly, your warning system will alert you. Newer Lexus vehicles will send you a detailed warning via text or email, however, all models will have a code show up on your dashboard which can be read using a special mechanic tool. It's important not to ever ignore any of these codes.   The professionals at DARCARS Lexus of Greenwich are proud to be there for you every step of the way during your buying and ownership experience. Our friendly, knowledgeable team will help you pick out the best vehicle for you and your family, and our expert service team will help you keep it in tip-top shape.

Knowing the signs to look out for if your car battery is reaching the end of its lifespan is essential for the overall health of your vehicle and the safety of you and your passengers. Continue reading to learn about the top 5 signs that you require a battery replacement. It's Time to Replace your Car Battery If You're Spotting These Signs: It's been more than three years since your last battery replacement. The car battery looks worn with corrosion. Foul smell coming from the battery. Trouble starting the vehicle. You hear clicking sounds when starting the car. If you're experiencing any of these indications of a worn battery, our service technicians here in Greenwich, CT, suggest continuing this blog to learn more about each sign. more Your Battery Hasn't Been Replaced for a Few Years In addition to general wear from driving, your car's battery can drain due to weather conditions and time. Typically, car batteries last about five years before they need replacing. If you're not sure how old your car's battery is, you should find a sticker on the case stating the date it was last changed. Your Battery Looks Worn Take a look at your battery once in a while to see if it's producing a bubbly green foam, has an opaque film, is grimy, or has any corrosion at all. This coating or bubbling foam can be cleaned off and could buy you a bit of extra time with your battery, but these are all signs your battery is at the end of its life and should be replaced. Your Battery Smells Sour If you're inspecting your car's battery or checking under your hood for another reason and you smell something acidic, that's a sign your battery is leaking or starting to corrode. It would be best if you replaced your car's battery before it wears down further. Your Car Isn't Starting Properly If you notice your engine isn't firing up as quickly as it usually does, it's likely because your car's battery is on its last legs. And if your vehicle doesn't start at all, it's probably due to your battery wearing down altogether. You can get a jump start, but that's only going to give the car's battery enough juice to last for one or two more starts. Your Vehicle Makes a Clicking Sound When You Start It If you notice a clicking sound when you turn the key in the ignition, this likely means your car's battery is running low and should be replaced very soon. Clicking can occasionally be an issue with the starter or something else, but the most common culprit is the battery.
