Instead of taking your vehicle to land rover greensboro nc and paying high dealer prices, Bring it to Eurobahn Motorsports!
Overheating and Engine Damage
Here is some information about land rover repair greensboro nc : Some automotive experts consider that the problem begins on the production line. As tooling equipment becomes worn, the tolerances between the aluminum engine block and the steel cylinder liners are less precise. This problem is compounded by significantly higher engine operating temperatures resulting from an increased displacement for more power, and the newer high efficiency fuels.
Engine failures become apparent when the engine creates enough [...]

At around 80,000 miles, all BMWs start burning oil and may encounter compression problems, or “burned valves”. Eurobahn is your BMW Greensboro NC Service Center and Valve jobs involve removing the engine’s cylinder head(s), so that the guides, seats and valves can be refurbished. This allows oil control and compression to be restored.
Usually, valve train jobs begin by dismantling, cleaning and examining the cylinder head. Heads made from cast iron are “magnafluxed”, to search for hairline cracks. Magnafluxing involves sprinkling iron powder onto the head, whilst exposing the head to a powerful magnetic field simultaneously.

After the head has passed this inspection, it is examined for flatness. Undue roughness, warpage or other [...]

Most people in the Triad area are aware that automotive manufacturers have recommended service intervals. Following recommended service intervals is very important. The engineers that design our vehicles have tested the various systems and components to meet durability and safety standards.
The maintenance schedules are designed to achieve the standards. Think of the benefits of following recommended intervals as falling into three general categories: Protection, Efficiency and Safety.
Protection. Let’s start with motor oil. First of all, the engineers recommend a particular weight and type of motor oil for your sedan. All of their oil change recommendations assume using the proper motor oil. Motor oil contains detergents and other additives that clean the engine and provide corrosion resistance. Over time, the additives are depleted. The oil also becomes contaminated by water, dirt and combustion gases.
Extending your interval beyond the recommendation means that your sedan engine will be operating without the full protection of fresh motor oil. It also means that sludge [...]

Having a good pair of windshield wipers is extremely important. We’ve all experienced the frustration and fear of not being able to see clearly during a storm, or when our windshield is just dirty.
It seems like your wiper blades are always at their worst when you need them the most. But windshield wipers are like most other vehicle parts– they require regular attention in order to work their best.
You really ought to replace your wiper blades twice a year; in the spring and the fall. If it’s going to be a particularly harsh winter in Greensboro, you may even want to get special winter blades in the fall. Winter blades are designed to resist freezing.
Speaking of winter and freezing conditions, if your car has been sitting for a long time [...]

Warm weather or cold, North Carolina drivers still need to think about their sedan’s air conditioning. Most people don’t service their air conditioning until after it fails. At Eurobahn Motorsports, we can advise you on your vehicle manufacturer’s preventive maintenance schedules for BMW service, just as we do for transmission service, oil changes and so on.
Maintaining your air conditioning system means that you always have enough refrigerant to properly do the job. Small leaks in the sedan’s air conditioning system allow the refrigerant to escape and the system can’t cool the air as well. We see that a lot at Eurobahn Motorsports in Greensboro.
The refrigerant also contains a special oil that lubricates air conditioning components, and keeps the seals resilient. Low refrigerant and lubricating oil means that [...]

BMW Auto Brake Repairs
Heed these tips and you’re on your way to ensuring your BMW brakes won’t fail:
Repair Tip #1: Keep the hydraulic reservoir at the proper level with the fluid type recommended by BMW. Never substitute or mix types of fluid. Remember also that hydraulic fluid absorbs water. Never use old hydraulic fluid – always use a fresh container.
Repair Tip #2: Keep brakes clean by washing them off at the same time as your car. This keeps squeaky dust and dirt off the pads and makes brakes easier to inspect and work on.
BMW Service Tip #3: Never spray, touch or drip any oil or lubricants on the brake friction surfaces. If this occurs, spray immediately with brake cleaner to remove completely
BMW Repair Tip #4: There are no shortcuts or quick [...]
