Maintenance at your CDJR dealer is performed by CDJR-trained technicians using only CDJR-approved replacement parts. This gives you the peace of mind of knowing your vehicle receives the highest quality care and attention. We want to tell you about some of the types of CDJR maintenance we provide. Sometimes, the maintenance your car needs might be outside of the routine. Check out some examples of unusual CDJR service available from your CDJR dealership. more Ignition Coil Replacement An ignition coil is connected to each spark plug and boosts its power. Spark plugs ignite the fuel-air mixture in the cylinders to create combustion, but they can only supply 12 volts. Their connected coil acts as a transformer to increase this to 30,000 volts and successfully ignite the mixture. Coils wear out due to old age and will need replacement. Worn spark plugs or other engine issues can also damage the coils. Damaged spark plugs produce more electrical resistance, which forces the coil to work harder to overcome this resistance. The additional workload heats up the coil and causes it to fail sooner than it should. If the coil fails, its spark plug won't ignite the fuel-air mixture, and your vehicle will misfire. We'll check your coils and replace any worn ones. As part of your regular maintenance, We'll also check for damaged plugs and replace them. Headlight Lens Replacement The lenses are clear plastic covers that fit over the headlight recesses. They allow light to shine through and protect the bulbs, sockets, and wiring from moisture and dirt. The covers gradually develop a yellowish tinge due to exposure to sunlight exposure, reducing headlight luminosity and making it more difficult to see the road ahead in low-light conditions. Lenses can also be damaged by gravel, sand, or other hard objects thrown up from the road surface. This causes scratches that reduce visibility and can also crack the lens. Water or mud can enter through these cracks and damage the bulbs or sockets. We'll check your lenses and can quickly replace them to improve visibility. We'll also repair any damage caused if water has leaked in. Rectifier Replacement The rectifier is a tiny component in the alternator that converts AC to DC. The alternator is powered by the crankshaft's movement, and it spins at high speed to produce magnetic energy. The magnetic energy is captured by the stator in the alternator and converted to AC. The final step is conversion of the AC to the DC your systems require. A rectifier can fail due to age, preventing electricity conversion. Without a DC supply from the alternator, the electrical systems will draw power from your battery. A battery doesn't have enough power to supply these demands continuously and will drain completely in less than an hour. Once our technicians replace the rectifier, power conversion will return to normal. Book your next maintenance today by contacting our service department at Auffenberg CDJR in Shiloh, IL.

Transmission problems can develop over time as components age and wear out. Most transmission issues are quick and inexpensive to repair if detected when they begin. As your local Shiloh and O’Fallon CDJR dealer, we want to give you all the information you need to keep your car running just like new. Check out these signs that you need a transmission service at our dealership. more Gear Slipping Gear slipping is exactly as it sounds. A gear will shift suddenly and without any warning into its previous position. This can be very dangerous, as it could shift to neutral or park when driving on the highway, stopping your vehicle instantly. You'll hear loud metallic noises as the gear drops into its new position against the instructions of the transmission computer. The slipping can be caused by worn gears or gear teeth failing to keep the transmission in the correct gear. Fortunately, the most common reason for this problem is a transmission fluid leak. Transmission fluid provides the vital hydraulic power that enables the gears to shift. We'll check your transmission for damaged gears and repair them. If you have a transmission leak, we'll find and seal it, then refill the transmission with fresh fluid. Check Engine Light The check engine light is arguably the most important warning light. It illuminates only in response to an issue that affects the engine. The computer activates this light if an engine sensor detects a problem with the component it's connected to. Every important component has a sensor, and these sensors receive instructions from the computer and send information back to it so it can make decisions. The transmission doesn't have its own warning light if something goes wrong. The reason is, that a transmission problem affects the engine, as the engine and transmission work inseparably to move your vehicle. We'll connect your vehicle's computer to our diagnostic system. This machine scans your computer for error codes. The codes allow our technicians to quickly identify and repair the problem. Burning Rubber Smell As we've seen, transmission fluid is essential for your transmission. Besides providing hydraulic power, this fluid also provides a protective coating over transmission components, preventing friction damage. It also helps reduce the temperature inside the transmission so it can work effectively. Transmission fluid becomes less effective as it ages and needs to be replaced. Older fluid also loses its heat resistance, and the high temperatures in the transmission can cause it to burn. Burning transmission fluid produces a foul smell like burning rubber. It can't provide any hydraulic power, and the transmission won't work. In addition, transmission components can be damaged as the fluid burns. We'll flush your transmission to remove the burnt fluid, then examine it and repair any damage. Transmission problems worsen if they're not repaired, and can cost thousands to fix if not addressed quickly. If you notice any of the problems above, it’s vital to get the problem assessed and corrected quickly. Contact us today at Auffenberg CDJR in Shiloh, IL.
