Your BMW’s Air Conditioning System.

Feel that cool breeze throughout your car.  Without the A/C in your BMW summer driving would be difficult at best.  What happens when the system starts kicking out warm air instead?  You don’t even want to think about that.  The hottest days of summer are just around the corner and it is time to have the air conditioning system in your BMW checked for efficiency.

Go to a repair shop which tests the refrigerant for any contamination.  Your system needs to have “pure” refrigerant.  The equipment inside your BMW is expensive and the waste material needs to be disposed of lawfully and recycled properly.  Exposed hoses must be checked.  The compressor and clutch need to be examined and much more.

Your BMW is a major part of your life.  In the Denver area you know whom to trust with your BMW.  That place is appropriately named The German Car Shoppe, a BMW repair expert.  It is important to have someone you can trust with your car the way you trust your family doctor.  Make an appointment to take care of your BMW by calling (303) 798-2287.

The Pride of Owning a Volkswagen Jetta.

Did you know that there was a survey taken in the 10 wealthiest zip codes in America to find out their ownership preferences across the board?  In that survey the VW Jetta was the 5th most popular car in those wealthy neighborhoods!  So the person who has everything values their Jetta as much as any car made in the world.

The Jetta has inherent mechanical difficulties that you need to be aware of -

1.  You may detect an odor emanating from the HVAC vents.
2.  The radiator fan does not shut off properly…particularly in the 2009 model.
3.  The rear brakes tend to wear out quickly.
4.  There are issues with the glow plugs and the wiring harness.
5.  Shifting problems with the transmission in older models.

There are many other points that need to be troubleshot on a regular basis.  If you are one of those people who takes pride in the high-level consistent performance of your baby, you need to remember one name for preventative and emergency maintenance.  In the Denver area your best choice is The German Car Shoppe, your area expert in the repair of Volkswagen Jettas.  Make an appointment today by calling (303) 798-2287.
