Coolant System Service - Federal Way, WA

Understanding when to service your vehicle's fluids is crucial for maintaining its health and longevity. At Northshore Automotive, we recommend a proactive approach to fluid maintenance.


The most obvious sign that it's time for a service is a change in the fluid's color or consistency, indicating contamination or degradation. For instance, engine oil should be checked regularly for a dark, gritty appearance, while transmission fluid should remain a bright, clear red. Brake fluid, vital for your safety, should be free of bubbles and not appear murky.


We also advise consulting your vehicle's manual for manufacturer-recommended intervals, as these can vary based on make and model. However, environmental factors in Federal Way, WA, such as temperature fluctuations and humidity, can also affect the rate at which fluids degrade, making regular check-ups at our certified NAPA AutoCare Center all the more important.


Regularly scheduled fluid checks are a cornerstone of vehicle maintenance that can prevent costly repairs and extend the life of your car. At Northshore Automotive, we use a comprehensive approach to assess the state of your vehicle's fluids. 


We not only check levels and quality but also inspect for any potential leaks or signs of wear in related components. Our ASE-certified technicians will advise you on any necessary services, ensuring that every fluid from your power steering to your coolant is functioning at its best, keeping your vehicle performing optimally on the roads of Federal Way, WA.

Transmission Fluid Service - Federal Way, WAxt

The process of fluid servicing at Northshore Automotive is thorough and meticulous. When you bring your vehicle to our Federal Way location, our ASE-certified technicians begin with a comprehensive evaluation of your vehicle's fluid levels and condition. This isn't just a glance - we use advanced diagnostic tools to measure viscosity, contamination, and efficacy.


For an oil change, for instance, we drain the old oil, replace the filter, and refill with the grade recommended by your vehicle's manufacturer. We also perform a complete flush of systems when necessary, such as for brake or power steering fluids, ensuring that no old, degraded fluid remains to contaminate the new.


In addition to replacing fluids, our service includes inspecting related components such as seals, hoses, and reservoirs for any signs of wear or damage. This holistic approach means that when you leave Northshore Automotive, your vehicle isn't just replenished, it's thoroughly checked for any potential issues that could affect the quality and function of your fluids. 


Trust our certified NAPA AutoCare Center to provide the detailed care your vehicle deserves.
