Likely Causes of Mini Cooper Oil Leaks

Your Mini Cooper is manufactured by BMW, but even the best designed vehicles can develop “issues”. Mini Cooper is known for developing oil leaks – fortunately at Fremont Auto Center we can find the source of any oil leak and get it fixed, so you can enjoy your Mini for years to come. How do I know that my Mini is leaking engine oil? We all know about oil spots on the driveway or the garage floor. But a pungent smell coming from the engine area (when the engine is hot) may also indicate that there is an oil leak. One good habit, though it requires a bit more effort, is to regularly check engine oil levels – if you notice the oil level dropping significantly between regular oil changes, or you have to repeatedly add engine oil between service visits, it’s likely a sign of an engine oil leak. Noticing any of these symptoms should motivate you to have your Mini Cooper checked out by a professional. Common Areas of Mini Cooper Oil Leaks Among the areas of M ... read more

Tire Check and Tire Rotation in Fremont CA

Winter is upon us, and with it rains and slippery driving conditions. We recommend tire check and tire rotation to make sure your vehicle has the right traction under wet driving conditions. Tire rotation allows tires to wear evenly, which extends tire life and saves you money. Tire rotation also improves control of the vehicle – particularly important under wet driving conditions. Tire tread depth check ensures that tires have enough tread depth to properly evacuate water and minimize the chance of spinouts and hydroplaning. At our Fremont auto care facility we can perform both tire rotation and tire tread check during the same visit. We will also check your tires for tire rot, and adjust air pressure to manufacturer specifications. These simple procedures will go a long way to keep your vehicle from having tire related issues this winter. And if you know your vehicle's tires need replacement, you can ask our friendly service advisors and they will provide you with multip ... read more

Be Good to Your Fuel Pump

You are not likely to read this in an owner’s manual, but driving “on fumes” can result in a premature death of the fuel pump and need for fuel pump replacement. Women’s Car Care Seminar by AC Delco recommends that you stop for gas any time the tank is less than 1/3rd full. Personal safety experts advise keeping the tank at least 1/2 full at all times, so if there is an emergency, you can travel considerable distance without stopping for gas. If you’ve seen stop-and-go traffic and gas lines in hurricane zones, you know that this is good advice. The technical reason not to drive with a near empty tank is that the fuel pump is cooled by being immersed in the fuel tank – if the fuel is low, then the fuel pump is not cooled to the proper temperature, which accelerates its demise. If the fuel pump has to draw the last of the fuel, it will also ingest moisture and any deposits from the bottom of the tank (gasoline is lighter than water, so moisture and a ... read more
