Your car works hard day in and day out to keep up with your lifestyle. Even Alfa Romeo parts can buckle under excessive wear. Luckily, the team at Alfa Romeo of Sugar Land is here to help.

Battery

With great power comes great responsibility. The battery is the source of power for every electrical component in your vehicle, which means that it also has a very stressful and important job. Batteries typically need to be replaced every four to six years, but the Texas heat can cause extra strain on a battery, causing it to wear out faster than usual.

Spark Plugs

It’s not always evident if you need your spark plugs replaced, but they are one of the most common parts to replace, usually every 30,000 to 50,000 miles. The spark plug provides its namesake spark to kickstart your engine on startup, so a bad spark plug can cause damage to your engine in the long run.

Tires

Of course, your tires come under some of the most direct wear of any car part. Tires generally need to be replaced every five to seven years, but this number can vary depending on your environment and driving style. Regular multi-point inspections at a certified service center help you monitor your tire tread, and tire rotations ensure even wear and longer tire life. 

Brakes

Just like tires, your brakes experience regular sustained wearing. Brakes are a complex system made up of several parts. Typically the brake pads are the part undergoing most of the wear, needing to be replaced about every three to five years, but the rotor can also wear down, too. Worn-out brakes risk dangerous failure, so it’s important to be proactive with service.
