Wiper blade replacement depends on various factors such as climate, usage, and the quality of the blades. As a general guideline, we recommend replacing your wiper blades every 6 to 12 months or whenever you notice signs of wear, such as streaking, skipping, or reduced effectiveness. Additionally, it's a good idea to inspect your wiper blades regularly for any damage or deterioration and replace them promptly if needed to ensure clear visibility and safe driving in all weather conditions. If you're unsure about the condition of your wiper blades, our experienced technicians can perform a thorough inspection and recommend replacement as necessary during your next service appointment.
The frequency of cabin air filter replacement varies depending on driving conditions, vehicle usage, and manufacturer recommendations. As a general rule of thumb, we suggest replacing your cabin air filter every 15,000 to 30,000 miles, or approximately once a year. However, if you frequently drive in dusty or polluted environments, you may need to replace it more frequently to maintain optimal air quality within your vehicle's cabin. It's also essential to check your vehicle's owner's manual for specific guidelines and consult with our technicians during regular maintenance appointments to ensure your cabin air filter is replaced at the appropriate intervals for your vehicle's needs.
The cost of replacing spark plugs can vary depending on several factors, including the make and model of your vehicle, the type of spark plugs required, labor costs, and any additional services or parts needed. On average, spark plug replacement typically ranges from $100 to $300 for most vehicles. However, for some luxury or high-performance vehicles with specialized spark plugs, the cost may be significantly higher.
