At Comasa Volkswagen, preventive inspection uses state-of-the-art diagnostic equipment and genuine parts approved by the manufacturer Comasa/Disclosure Preventive inspection is one of the main measures to ensure the safety of occupants, preserve the vehicle's performance and avoid unexpected expenses with more complex repairs. During the procedure, several mechanical, electrical and electronic components are inspected, capable of indicating wear before they become failures. Furthermore, following the maintenance schedule recommended by the manufacturer helps to extend the car's useful life, reduce fuel consumption and preserve the factory warranty. According to Comasa's After-Sales Manager, André Rondão, the preventive inspection goes far beyond changing the oil and aims to ensure that all the vehicle's systems are functioning within the standards established by the manufacturer. "During the inspection, we evaluate several components that play a fundamental role in the safety, performance and durability of the vehicle. Items such as oil and filters, tires, brakes, suspension, steering, battery, lighting and electronic systems are inspected. This analysis allows wear to be identified before they evolve into more serious failures, providing greater peace of mind for the driver, reducing corrective maintenance costs and preserving the car's original performance", he explains. André also highlights that the quality of the review depends not only on the inspection of the components, but also on the use of parts and procedures approved by the manufacturer. "At Comasa Volkswagen, the after-sales service brings together technology, specialized labor and processes that strictly follow Volkswagen standards. Revisions are carried out by technicians trained by the brand, using genuine parts, state-of-the-art diagnostic equipment and updates to electronic systems whenever necessary", he adds. What is assessed during the review? During preventative maintenance, several systems are inspected to ensure that the vehicle continues to operate safely, efficiently and within the manufacturer's specifications. Discover the main items evaluated and understand why each of them deserves attention: Changing engine oil and filter: Engine oil is responsible for lubricating internal parts, reducing friction and preventing premature wear of components. The filter retains impurities that could compromise the functioning of the system. When the change is not carried out within the recommended period, the oil loses its properties, increasing fuel consumption and causing severe damage to the engine. Tires: Tire inspection includes checking pressure, tread depth, wear, alignment and balancing. Tires in good condition guarantee greater grip on the ground, better stability when cornering, less risk of aquaplaning and more efficient braking. In addition to safety, correct maintenance reduces fuel consumption and increases tire life. Brake system: One of the most important items for vehicle safety, the brake system undergoes a complete inspection during the overhaul. Pads, discs, brake fluid and other components responsible for braking are evaluated. Excessive wear on these parts can increase the distance required to stop the vehicle, compromising the safety of occupants and other road users. Suspension and steering: Suspension and steering are responsible for the stability, comfort and control of the car. During the inspection, shock absorbers, bushings, pivots, terminals, springs and other components that may show looseness or wear are checked. Keeping this set in good condition improves drivability, reduces vibrations and increases safety, especially when cornering, braking and on uneven surfaces. Electrical system and battery: The battery provides energy to start the vehicle and powers various electronic systems. During the inspection, the load, useful life, connections and operation of the alternator are evaluated, in addition to inspecting headlights, taillights, brake lights and other electrical equipment. This check prevents unexpected breakdowns and ensures the full functioning of the vehicle's safety and comfort features. Air, cabin and fuel filters: Filters perform essential functions for vehicle performance and occupant well-being. The engine air filter prevents impurities from entering, preserving performance and reducing fuel consumption. The cabin filter improves the air quality inside the vehicle by retaining dust, pollen and other pollutants. The fuel filter protects the injection system against residues that could compromise its operation. Periodically replacing these components helps keep the vehicle more efficient and comfortable. Fluids, spark plugs and belts: The inspection also includes checking the levels and condition of fluids such as cooling, brake and power steering, in addition to inspecting the spark plugs and belts. These components suffer natural wear over time and mileage and, when replaced preventively, prevent mechanical failures, preserve engine performance and reduce the risk of costly repairs. Respecting the maintenance plan recommended by the manufacturer is the best way to increase the vehicle's useful life and maintain its warranty. In addition to scheduled inspections, the dealership offers mechanical services, oil changes, bodywork and painting, glazing, application of PPF (Paint Protection Film), sale of original parts and accessories, providing a complete solution for those looking for quality, safety and the peace of mind of keeping the vehicle in accordance with factory specifications.
