Schedule your next oil change now! Tysons Auto Specialties is at your service – ready to provide you with their premium BG Oil Change Service at a special price.

You can end up spending more money in the long run by delaying such basic services as an oil and filter change.

We’re now in the height of the holiday travel season. This is a good time to check your oil change sticker and see if your car is due.

If it is, be sure to choose premium BG Oil Service from the professionals at Tysons Auto Specialties.

The BG Engine Oil Service adds friction fighting performance and sludge control not available in a standard oil change. It will protect your engine under even the most severe stop-and-go, high temperature driving conditions — the all-too-frequent type of driving we find in Northern Virginia. This type of vehicle usage can severely shorten engine life.

At the same time, this critical service from Tysons Auto Specialties can reduce operational costs and enhance engine performance. We use BG MOA, a additive which resists oxidation and sludge build-up which gives you extra oil protection between changes.

BG Oil Change Service, with BG MOA oil additive, includes the Lifetime protection plan for your engine at no extra charge.

How long has it been since you’ve had a power steering flush?

How long has it been since you’ve had a power steering flush?

Tom Ivey and Tysons Auto Specialties recommends a power steering flush every two years or 30,000 miles, whichever comes first.

In cards, a full house may beat a flush, but when it comes to keeping your vehicle’s steering components in top shape, nothing beats a flush!

Be sure your vehicle is ready for the heat with our BG Climate Control Service.

Do you know that foul musty smell when you first turn on your air conditioning system? It’s caused by bacterial growth in the evaporator. This air is unhealthy to breathe, especially for children or those with allergies.

Condensation in your vehicle’s air conditioning system promotes fungus, mold and bacterial growth that is blown into the passenger compartment. Your A/C compressor can also make a clacking sound due to a depletion of oil.

Our BG Climate Control Service extends the life and enhances the performance of systems that allow you to drive in cool comfort. The service also eliminates odors and controls contaminants, such as bacteria, mold, spores, fungi and road grime, that accumulate in the system.

Our premium service includes:

Cleaning out the air conditioning lines, evaporator and ventilator, killing any bacteria mold or fungi.
Deodorizing the entire A/C system and the vehicle’s interior.
Inspecting the total system for leaks and wear
Checking and replenishing the oil in the compressor.
