Automotive Tips from TJ's Auto Center Inc.: Air Conditioning Inspection
Posted October 21, 2015 12:00 PMMost auto manufacturers recommend an interval for an air conditioning system inspection. The inspection uncovers leaks, worn hoses and assesses the condition of the other components.
Environmental laws in some around Rockford require leaks to be repaired before refrigerant can be added. Also some parts manufacturers require other components to be replaced along with certain failed parts in order to maintain the new part warranty. This is because a given failure may be the result of another worn or damaged part that will, if not replaced, prematurely damage the new component.
TJ's Auto Center Inc. in Rockford is fully equipped to restore your flow of cool air.

Automotive Tips from TJ's Auto Center Inc.: Where Should New Tires Be Placed
Posted October 7, 2015 12:00 PMWhen Rockford drivers need to replace tires, they need to know how many they should get and on which axle they should be placed. Replacing a damaged tire may leave you with three others with significant wear, which could affect your traction control, stability control and anti-lock brake systems.
If you can’t afford to replace all four tires at once, you should at least replace two on the same axle. New tires should always be put on the rear axle for stability in slippery conditions. Your friendly and professional TJ's Auto Center Inc. tire professional can help you know when your worn tires should be replaced, if you can have a damaged tire repaired as well as selecting the right tires for your needs.
