Archive for September 2021What's up with Diesels in FORT WORTH?Posted September 26, 2021 10:48 AMWould you be surprised to learn that about half of the passenger cars in Europe have diesel engines? You might also be surprised to learn that most manufacturers produce a variety of diesel-fueled cars for purchase abroad. Diesel engines have other advantages over gasoline engines. Diesel engines are heavier than gasoline engines because they require more heavy-duty parts, but that means the engines are more durable and can last longer than gasoline engines. Also, diesel engines may be the engines of the future since they can burn many of the new bio-fuels. When you switch from a gas vehicle to a diesel, you'll have to learn some new rules of vehicle care. But you won't be alone. Most FORT WORTH service centers are aware that diesels are coming to North America and are already prepared to provide service for diesel engines. At Westmoreland Transmissions, we are well-versed in diesel technology. You can rely on our team of automotive professionals to provide quality service for diesel-powered vehicles.

Should FORT WORTH Soccer Moms Follow the Severe Service Schedule?Posted September 19, 2021 8:02 AMSo you take your vehicle in for maintenance and the pro at Westmoreland Transmissions tells you that you ought to change your oil more often. What? You followed the maintenance schedule – but you take a second look at that “severe service” schedule and see some of the following:
One way to decide how often to maintain your vehicle is to picture a line. On one end, imagine ideal driving conditions: year-round moderate TX temperatures, only freeway driving, all trips are longer than 4 miles/6.5 km and travel is always at a constant speed of 60 mph/97 kph. At the other end of the line, put the severe driving conditions. Now, stop and think about how you drive, where you live, where you go in TX and what you plan to do with your vehicle in the near future. Consider honestly where your driving fits on the line. Westmoreland Transmissions That Squeal is Telling You Something (What Causes Squealing While Steering)Posted September 12, 2021 11:13 AMIf you hear a squealing noise when you turn your vehicle, it's trying to tell you something is wrong. After all, it never made that noise before, right? The sound you hear may becoming from a few sources. Let's take a look (or a listen) to some of the possibilities. First, you almost certainly have power steering in your vehicle. Without power steering, you practically have to have arms like Arnold Schwarzenegger to turn, so automakers have technology to assist your steering, either mechanically or electrically. For a long time, the most common power steering has been hydraulic, using a belt to supply power from the engine that turns a power steering pump full of a fluid that helps you steer. Sometimes that fluid gets low because of a leak or some other problem. The belt could wear out and start squeaking, and you might feel the steering start to become harder. Your service repair facility can figure out the problem and offer some solutions. Another cause could be in your suspension. Some components may not be getting lubricated like they should. Or you may be hearing your tires squealing when you are turning. Properly working steering is a huge safety factor for your vehicle's operation. Your steering affects handling, vital to your well-being as well as that of drivers around you. So take your vehicle over to your repair facility and have it checked out. You'll be doing everyone on the road—including yourself—a big favor by listening to your vehicle. When it comes to steering, silence really is golden. Get that squealing repaired and get back to safe driving.
