Disinfect your Vehicle

With the Coronavirus spreading rapidly around the world, people are buying cleaning products and performing deep cleanings more than ever. People focus on home and office cleaning, but what about your car? Vehicles may carry all the nasty germs that you come into contact with when you are away from home. Here are a few tips to help you disinfect your car to keep you safe from the horrible Coronavirus. First, it is important to careful consider what type of cleaners you use. You want gentle cleaners, like soap. The chemicals in soap detergents, such as Dawn liquid soap, are actually very effective at working against viruses. Alcohol-based products may effectively rid surfaces of germs, though it is not ideal for car disinfecting. It is best to avoid them for the interior of cars, because they can be too harsh. The key is to use products with mild detergents, while skipping the ones that are detergent-free. Car cleaners a good option, since they are specifically made for them, but make sure to read the labels before using them on any surface. This is important to note when cleaning leather seats. The wrong product on leather seats can remove the moisture from it and make it dried out. A great way to keep moisture in leather seats is by using leather conditioners. They contain chemicals called surfactants, which are used to help cleaners get into places that regular cleaners cannot. Some other products to avoid are solvents, like acetones and kerosene, because they cause damage and don’t properly disinfect against viruses. Household disinfectant sprays may not be effective enough. Also beware of using cleaning wipes that contain bleach. When in doubt, you can spot test a cleaner first to make sure it is safe to use. Focus on cleaning all the things that are touched the most, for example… the steering wheel, shifter, door handles, buttons, etc. Be sure to regularly clean your car to keep the germs at bay. Also, don’t forget to wash your hands when you get home. Eagle Transmission Shop in Denton takes viruses seriously. We have stepped up our cleaning efforts in the wake of current events.

A CVT is an automatic transmission system which offers a smoother driving experience by optimizing the process of change. The transition between gears becomes almost smooth by the design of the CVT, and the effect of "shift-shock" is greatly lessened. CVTs also provide better fuel economy and power consumption, as it allows the engine to operate at optimum power, regardless of how fast the vehicle travels. The word "continuously variable" implies that the CVT allows for a constant change within the engine, instead of the actual gear "stages," so that there is no apparent shift between gears. Different types of CVTs Many types of continuously variable transmissions are available, many of which are now available from major automakers. Pulley-Based The most common CVT uses a complex pulley system to provide smooth gear changes instead of gears. If you’re having issues with your cvt give us a call we offer a free initial check out.

5 Tips that will help you save money at a transmission shop! 1. Today's technology is great! When it comes to finding a good transmission shop, it's right at your fingertips. Checking the reviews of a shop on the internet is the first step to saving you money. This may sound silly but, good shops work hard for good reviews. 2. Resist the impulse to call a transmission shop and ask for a "worst case scenario", or a "ball park". Worst case is buying something you don't need. There are a lot of shops that will just throw a number out, all too quickly, hoping to land the job. 3. Keep in mind that a transmission has 300-400 moving parts. When someone says they can rebuild your transmission for a certain dollar figure, how many of those parts are they going to replace? Everyone is convinced that rebuilding a transmission means you take out ALL the old parts and put new ones back in their place. That's simply not the case. 4. It’s easy to make up prices over the phone, but a professional shop will always ask you to bring the vehicle in for a proper diagnosis. Doesn't it make more sense to base your decision on a thorough diagnosis and accurate pricing information, rather than some sort of random guess work by someone that hasn't even looked at your vehicle? 5. Honest shops make sure they only sell what is needed and do a good job for you. An honest shop will educate the customer, rather than trying to play them for a sucker. If you want to get the best price, seek out a professional transmission shop like Eagle Transmission. Serving Dallas Area and Ardmore Ok Eagle Transmission Shop
