How Often Should You Check The Oil Level Of Your Car?

To make sure your car is running in optimal condition, be sure to check your oil at least once a month and before taking a long road trip. If your oil is running low, or it appears too dark or has debris in it, it’s time to get an oil change.

Can You Replace Your Car’s Alternator Belt On Your Own?

A car's alternator belt - otherwise known as a serpentine belt - is an integral part of a working alternator.

You can replace the belt yourself. However, like with any repair, we recommend a belt repair or replacement is only attempted if you're confident in your own abilities and have consulted your vehicle service manual.

However, if you have any doubts, contact an expert. Furthermore, if you decide to replace an alternator with Goodhood, we will also replace your belt too.

How is Goodhood Different from Brake Repair Shops?

Brake pads consist of friction material that is bonded to a sturdy steel backing plate.

When you push on your brake pedal, the friction material on these pads is forced against the inner and outer surfaces of the brake rotor with a lot of pressure.

This friction causes the tires on your car to slow rapidly allowing for a quick, safe, and controlled stop. However, this wears over time. After thousands of miles, this friction material eventually wears away - along with the brake rotors - and they require replacing. That's where we come in.

How Do You Check Your Brake Pads?

If you're noticing some brake noise or a decrease in stopping power, it may be a good idea to check your brake pads. In fact, we recommend making this a regular part of your car maintenance routine.

That way, you're more likely to catch the problem early on, prevent driving on worn brake pads, and ensure you're not running the risk of coming to a complete stop.

  • Let your brakes cool - Your brakes generate a lot of heat while in use. Therefore, we recommend you allow at least an hour after use before inspecting them.

  • Check your wheels - A buildup of brake dust is normal for your brake pads. As your car's brake pads wear, the amount of brake dust diminishes. When you begin to notice cleaner wheels, it can be a sign that your vehicle is ready for new brake pads.

  • Look inside your wheel (without removing your wheels) - you can see the pad through the holes in your wheel. To check the life of the pad, you'll need to determine its thickness. (you may need a flashlight to do so). A worn pad is no good for any vehicle. If the pads look thin, less than 1/4", it might be time to get them replaced.

You can also tend to your vehicle's brakes by removing the wheel. However, we recommend you only attempt this if you're very confident. Otherwise, contact Goodhood to service your vehicle's brakes.

When Should You Replace Your Car’s Water Pumps?

There is no definitive answer to this question since water pumps can fail for a variety of reasons, but as a general rule, you should replace your car's water pump if it fails or leaks. It's also a good idea to replace your water pump if it shows any signs of wear and tear, such as cracking or corrosion, or you have to replace the timing belt or timing chain.

At Goodhood, we offer replacement water pumps for most makes and models of cars. We also have a wide range of replacement parts and accessories, so you can get your car back on the road quickly and easily with our professional repair services.

What Are The Symptoms Of a Failing Cooling System?

There are a few common failing water pump problems, including:

  • Leaking coolant

  • High coolant temperature

  • Low coolant levels

  • Coolant pooling beneath the car

  • Overheating on the temperature gauge

  • Smoke coming from the hood

If you're experiencing any of these symptoms, it's important to have your car checked out by a mechanic as soon as possible. Failing to replace a faulty water pump can lead to more serious problems, such as engine failure.

How Often Should a Water Pump Replacement Be Performed?

There is no definitive answer to this question, as the interval at which a water pump replacement should be performed will vary depending on the make and model of your car. However, as a general rule, it's a good idea to have your water pump replaced every 75,000 miles or so.

At Goodhood, we offer replacement electric water pumps for most makes and models of cars. We also have a wide range of replacement parts and accessories, so you can get your car back on the road quickly and easily.
