Fluid Check & Top-Up Service in Burien, WA

Your vehicle relies on several fluids to cool, lubricate, and operate key systems. Engine oil, coolant, brake fluid, transmission fluid, power steering fluid, and windshield washer fluid all have one thing in common: they break down or get low over time. Low or dirty fluids cause overheating, poor braking, hard shifting, and premature wear on expensive components.

At Burien Auto Lube, a quick fluid check is part of every service. We inspect levels, check for leaks, and top up or recommend a flush if the fluid is contaminated. This 10-minute check can prevent a $2000 repair later.

What We Check and Top Up?

We go through every critical fluid in your vehicle so nothing gets missed. Most checks are done while you wait, and topping up takes just minutes.

Here’s what we inspect and refill:

• Engine Oil: Check level and condition. Top up if low between oil changes.
• Coolant/Antifreeze: Check level and test concentration to make sure it protects in both summer heat and winter cold.
• Brake Fluid: Check level and moisture content. Low or contaminated brake fluid affects stopping power.
• Transmission Fluid: Check level and color. Dark or burnt-smelling fluid means it’s time for a service.
• Power Steering Fluid: Check level to prevent stiff steering and pump damage.
• Windshield Washer Fluid: Top up with winter or summer formula so you can see clearly in any weather.
• Battery Water: For serviceable batteries, we check and top up distilled water if needed.

If we find a fluid is low, we’ll check for leaks and let you know before adding anything. No surprise charges, just honest advice.
