What Drivers Need to Know About Oil Changes

Each time that you get an oil change, you receive an oil change sticker that is placed on the windshield of your vehicle. This sticker indicates the number of kilometers that you should accumulate before changing your oil again. Although many people see this number as a minor suggestion, changing the engine oil at proper intervals is very important to the overall health of your vehicle’s engine.

Engines are comprised of many different parts. Since these parts are constantly moving, it’s critical that they’re properly lubricated in order to avoid damage. Engine oil provides this vital function by helping to minimize friction and by working to reduce heat build-up within the engine.

Over time, engine oil slowly breaks down and becomes contaminated with dust, dirt and debris. This limits the ability for oil to lubricate the parts, which means the old oil must be removed and then new oil must be inserted. At The Mufflerman, we suggest getting your vehicle’s oil changes as per the owner’s manual. 

How Much Does a Tire Replacement Cost

Tire replacements can cost between $50 to $200 or so, depending on the type of tire. But there is always the chance that you won’t have to replace your tires outright and instead can get a patch that will help you save money while keeping your car roadworthy. 

In order to determine if you can repair a tire rather than outright replace it, you’ll need to consult with one of the experts at The Mufflerman – we’ll walk you through your options, prices, and always be 100% transparent and upfront regarding cost. 

The Mufflerman has car services centers operating across Ontario so you can get fast, affordable, and expert car servicing. Just google ‘ tire repair near me’  to find your local tire repair shop: 

How Tire Repairs Work – Tire Plugs, Tire Patch, Tire Replacement

If your car experiences a tire puncture, then you have a few different options available to you. 

You can put in a tire plug manually that will help solve the problem temporarily. This is the perfect fix for when you’re on the side of the highway and just need a bit of help to reach the closest tire repair shop (just google ‘tire repair shop near me’ – we’re everywhere). 

But remember that plugs are only a temporary fix. That’s because rubber heats up and expands with use, so the plug may eventually fall out. Rather than basing your safety and the safety of your family on a small rubber plug, it’s highly advisable to seek out a tire repair shop.

Learn more about your vehicle from the experts at The Mufflerman – stay safe out there: 

There, you can get a more permanent patch that is applied to the inside of your tire. A self-vulcanizing seal will melt into the rubber, providing a strong seal that could allow you to use that tire indefinitely. It’s a good idea to keep an eye on it, of course, and a better idea to totally replace the tire to err on the side of safety, but generally speaking, a well-done patch will do the trick. 

Important to note that you shouldn’t do both a tire plug and a tire patch! 

The next option is a tire replacement. Maybe you plugged it up on the side of the road or the tire patch seems to be wearing down – it’s time to get new tires.
