Is Your Car Due for a Tune-Up? 

Here's What You Need to Know ...

If your car’s been running a little rough, your gas mileage has dropped, or your check engine light won’t turn off—it's probably time for a tune-up.

At Victory Lane Auto, we specialize in tune-up services for all makes and models, especially European vehicles. Whether you're in San Antonio, Schertz, Selma, Converse, or Live Oak, our ASE-certified technicians are here to keep your engine running at its best.


🔧 What is a Tune-Up?

A car tune-up is preventative maintenance that helps keep your engine performing efficiently and reliably. It typically includes:

• Replacing spark plugs
• Inspecting and replacing air filters
• Checking ignition timing
• Cleaning the fuel system
• Testing battery and charging systems

These small services go a long way in avoiding costly repairs down the road.
