So what makes Holzhauers Auto stand out from the other dealerships around the Nashville, IL area? Well, we happen to have three great reasons why we are your number one destination for all your automotive needs.

As a general rule, you wouldn't be able to tell if your tire wasn't properly inflated by looking at it. It is possible that a tire could appear flat simply because it is sitting under the engine or is being looked at from an odd angle. Fortunately, most vehicles come equipped with tire pressure sensors.

The sensors are designed to send an alert to drivers when the pressure drops below a predetermined threshold. 

Many car owners check their engine oil levels every weekend, especially when it is getting close to your service date. However, a car differential needs maintenance too. Unfortunately, you may not realize that you need to lubricate this part, especially if your car does not tell you that your differential is losing lubrication.

Once lubrication is worn down on your wheels, you may not be able to go anywhere. How does the car differential work this way? 

Once upon a time, our elders told us that we must have our oil changed every three months or 3,000 miles. While it's still wise advice to take care of your vehicle, you don't need to follow the old rule any longer. The only folks who seem to dispute this fact are the "quick lube" shops that rely on your money every few months with hefty commissions being paid to their technicians.

It's been confirmed by test after test that vehicles made within the past 20 years can go a minimum of 5,000 miles before…

The colder weather is drawing near, and most drivers don't address issues with their car until trouble strikes. The last thing you want to do is find out while driving in a blizzard that your wipers can not keep the windshield clear.

If you are driving your car and you still have water in the washer tank, as the temperatures reach freezing, that water will not make its way through the pump system. The windshield wiper fluid contains antifreeze, and what that means is the fluid in the tank can wash clear the windshield even in freezing conditions.
