    Need For Speed: Easy Ways To Improve Your Car’s Performance

    It’s easy to end up thinking that tuning up your car is too complicated or difficult to do yourself. Movies would have you believe that improving a car’s performance is the kind of thing only the very best mechanics could manage. Luckily there are a few easy and straightforward ways to keep your motor running and full capacity and improve the performance of your car. Don’t expect this to increase your car’s top speed suddenly. But if you’re looking to increase the length of your vehicle’s lifespan, then you’d do well to follow this advice.


    Use the right oil

    We all know that it’s a good idea to change your car’s oil regularly. As you car uses oil, the oil breaks down and becomes less and less effective. Changing the oil keeps it lubricating your engine properly and prevents friction. What people tend to ignore is that the type of oil that you use can make a lot of difference. Synthetic oil has a more stable viscosity which keeps it’s performance solid at both high and low temperatures. It’s designed to have lower levels of internal friction which can add up to 5-15 horsepower to the vehicle.


    Change your spark plugs

    A lot of car owners tend to ignore spark plugs a lot of the time. They are designed to be extremely durable and can last for a seriously long time. Manufacturers might claim that spark plugs don’t need to be changed until at least 30,000 miles. But that doesn’t mean that their performance won’t start to suffer before then. Over time the sharp edges can wear down, and more voltage will be required to bridge the gap between electrodes. Worn spark plugs can result in misfires which can increase your emissions and harm your mileage. Checking your spark plugs and changing them when they start to wear down is an excellent way to maintain your car’s performance.


    Regular maintenance

    We all care about our cars. The last thing we want is to get stuck with a vehicle that’s barely running. That’s why it’s that much stranger that so many people neglect to take their car for a regular service. As many things as you can do yourself to keep your vehicle in great shape, there’s nothing like turning to an expert for advice. An experienced mechanic can identify problems that you may not be able to and can keep your car running at peak performance. Make sure you’re contacting places like vauxhall servicing to take the best possible care of your vehicle.

    Clear out the junk

    This one might seem a little too easy, but it really does make a difference. It’s amazing just how much the junk in your car can add up to increase the weight of the vehicle. By regularly clearing it out, you’ll make your car lighter and will improve your handling, mileage, and brake distance. Ask yourself: do I really need half a library’s worth of books in the trunk?
