How Much Does Auto Tune Up Cost
Tune up packages Results based on 60 mph post fade performance testing conducted by Link Engineering Company comparing Wagner OEX Brake pads to competitors' brake pads on the 2014 Ford F-150, 2011 Toyota RAV4 and the 2103 Chevrolet Tahoe. Prices can start at $40-$150 or more for a minimal tune-up that includes replacing the spark plugs and inspecting the spark plug wires, but it typically costs $200-$800 or more for a standard tune-up that can include replacing the spark plugs, wires, distributor cap, rotor, fuel filter, PVC valve and air filter. The average cost for a tune-up is between $50 and $150. Tune-up prices vary from one mechanic to the next, as well as for different types of vehicles. Mechanics provide different services during a tune-up. Some only change the spark plugs and check the vehicle's air filter, belts and hoses.
The timing and costs of the procedures will vary between different models and years, but every Truck, SUV and car needs to be tuned up to maintain safe and effective operation. A standard tune up can cost $50 to $200, while more complex tasks can range from $500 to $900. Depending on the complexity of the maintenance process, car tune up cost can range from $140 to $900. The specific car tune up costs and timing will depend on the requirements of your particular car model and how long you’ve had it for.
How do I know I need a car tune-up?
Every vehicle needs a quality car tune-up. No matter if you drive the latest start-stop technology or a classic collector, regularly scheduled engine maintenance is key to helping extend the life of your car or truck, maintain fuel economy and prevent major issues from occurring down the road.
Determining when to get your car or truck engine maintained depends on a couple factors — vehicle manufacturer’s recommendation as well as mileage and age of your vehicle. However, if your vehicle is showing any of these signs, chances are you may need a tune-up:
- Drop in gas mileage
- Tough to start
- Rough idle
- Stalling
- Jerking when vehicle shifts
