Common Reasons Engines Need to be Cleaned
- Fluid Leak: The most common reason people need to clean the engine is due to some sort of a fluid leak. Often, because the leak has created a big mess, the mechanic cannot identify the source of the leak and, therefore, the engine needs to be cleaned so the leak can be pinpointed and fixed. If you’ve already fixed the leak, you’ll want to clean your engine to identify any leaks in the future.
- Rodents: Especially in winter, when it’s cold and damp, rodents like to find a warm, dry place to nest and will therefore make their way into vehicle engine bays. Besides being messy creatures, they will chew on parts of the engine, including insulation and wiring, causing thousands of dollars in damage. Even if you’ve gotten rid of rodents, you’ll need to clean the engine so they don’t keep returning to their new home.
- Cars For Sale: Looking to sell your car? Having a clean engine will increase the perceived value of your vehicle, giving the buyer assurance that the vehicle has been well maintained. Buyers are often willing to pay a little bit more for a car that has been taken care of – having the engine bay clean and shiny will help!
