Belt, Hose, & Filter Replacement

Your belts and hoses play a critical role in the function of your vehicle, because these parts are tied to the cooling system, air conditioning system, charging system, and engine. However, despite their necessity to vehicle operations, these parts often wear out much faster than others because of the exposure to vehicle vibrations, heat, and harmful chemicals that can cause cracks, rust, and leaks. To keep your vehicle running smoothly, you should always be sure that your belts and hoses are in good condition by keeping an ear out for grinding, screeching, and squeaking noises.

Signs Of Damage To Your Belts & Hoses

Often, the most telltale signs of belt and hose damage are the sounds you’ll hear while driving or starting your engine. Screeching, squeaking, and grinding are all indications of belts and hoses that are worn, cracked, or leaking. However, there are other symptoms of damaged belts and hoses that include:

 

  • Loss of power to vehicle
  • Coolant or other fluid leaks
  • Air conditioning failure
  • Steam rising from engine
  • Illuminated dashboard lights

Engine Air Filter Replacement in Raleigh, Garner, & Hillsborough

If you are driving around with a dirty air filter, your vehicle’s other systems and components will suffer because they will not be able to protect against the additional wear and tear. Plus, your air filters prevent dust and other contaminants from entering your cabin, making this maintenance task important for both your health and the health of your vehicle.

Don’t operate a vehicle that needs a belt, hose, or air filter replacement. Instead, schedule an appointment with Carfix at one of our three locations in Raleigh, Garner, or Hillsborough or call us today to learn more about how we can help.
