3 Important Services You'll Find at Your Flagstaff Genesis Dealership

Your Genesis dealership in Flagstaff, AZ, is your first stop for all your maintenance needs. Regular services will ensure that your car always performs at its peak. These are a few of the many services we have available to enhance your car’s performance and increase its lifespan.

Transmission Services

Your transmission is one of the hardest working parts of your car. It’s directly connected to your engine by the torque converter, and it transfers engine power to your wheels. The gears in the transmission ensure that the correct level of power is applied to the wheels to enable them to move at the desired speed. Transmission components operate in a hot environment and are subject to constant friction. These conditions can lead to damage if the transmission isn’t serviced.

During a service, we inspect all transmission components for signs of wear or damage. We test the transmission fluid quality, and then we replace the fluid. Fresh transmission fluid allows the components to operate more efficiently and effectively. We replace the transmission filter to prevent blockages, and we test all the transmission seals and replace them if necessary. Finally, we clean the transmission casing to prevent any dirt or debris from entering your transmission.

Oil Change

Engine oil performs several essential functions in your engine. Oil is continuously pumped through the engine to lubricate all the engine components. Many of these components depend on friction to work correctly, and the oil forms a protective layer around the components to protect them from friction damage. The continual movement of oil also helps to reduce the temperature inside your engine.

Over time, the oil accumulates dirt and debris from the engine, and this makes it move slower. Older oil is less effective at reducing friction, and it loses its rust-preventing and blockage-reducing properties. We test your oil to identify any potential problems, and then we drain and replace the oil. We also install a new oil filter to allow the oil to move faster and more freely.

Air Filter Replacement

Your car’s air filter is situated in a small box directly behind the radiator grille. The filter’s job is to screen out dirt, twigs, and other debris from the air that enters through the grille. The filter traps these items and allows only clean air into your engine. Clean air is essential as your engine requires a vast amount of fresh, dirt-free air for efficient combustion.

The filter will eventually become blocked, and this prevents sufficient air from reaching your engine. An engine that doesn’t receive enough air becomes fuel rich, and this decreases fuel economy, increases pollution, and can damage sensitive engine components. Replacing a blocked air filter removes these problems and provides a boost to engine performance.
