Regular services keep your Subaru in good condition, prevent costly repairs, and give you peace of mind when you’re driving. Your Subaru dealership in Ballwin, MO provides every service your vehicle may need. These are samples of some of the services we can perform.

Oil Changes

Your engine contains huge numbers of components, many of​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ which depend on friction to work effectively. Over time, friction will lead to damage as minute sections of friction-producing components wear off as they work. One of the jobs of the oil in your engine is to prevent this friction. The steady flow of high-grade oil protects these components from friction damage and prolongs their life.

Oil also helps to prevent blockages from forming in your engine and guards against rust. Your oil needs to be regularly replaced as it is slowly consumed as it works, and older oil also becomes less effective. During an oil change, we test the quality of your engine oil to identify any potential issues that need to be fixed. We then drain the oil and replace it with genuine Subaru oil specially formulated for your engine. We will also install a new oil filter.

Battery Testing

Every driver probably knows someone who has experienced a dead battery. It’s not a pleasant experience, and it can be very stressful. A car battery will inevitably fail within five years, and the chance of failing can be increased due to environmental factors or other engine issues. Fortunately, our technicians can test your battery and determine its health and potential lifespan.

We’ll remove your battery and connect it to our battery tester. This device subjects your battery to a variety of tests that will identify any possible weaknesses it may have. If your battery is working correctly, we advise another test each year to ensure it’s in good condition. If your battery is failing, we can install a new one for you.

Air Filter Replacement

Your engine requires enormous quantities of air for the combustion process. Air and fuel must mix in a precise ratio for efficient combustion. All the air that enters your engine first passes through the engine air filter. This filter is situated inside the grille, and its purpose is to capture dirt, dust, and other debris to prevent it from reaching the engine.

Inevitably, the dirt captured by the filter will eventually block the air filter. A blocked filter prevents sufficient air from reaching the engine. If your engine doesn’t have enough air, it will experience problems like misfiring, lower fuel economy, and potential component damage. We can easily and quickly replace the filter, and your engine performance will return to normal.
