Choke the smoke:
Keep your car tuned - it makes sense.
Win $650 worth of fuel.
Your vehicle has had a tune up. the technician who carried it out or the service
advisor can let you know what work was carried out and the condition your
car was in when it first arrived.
Having your vehicle tuned makes sense, it will bring a variety of benefits.
For you, lower running costs and a more efficiently operating vehicle. For
the wider community - cleaner air with fewer harmful emissions, better public
health and a cleaner environment. You'll be pleased you had a tune up carried
out, and so will your fellow New Zealanders.
As part of the new Emissions Testing Rule, all vehicles will be checked for
visible smoke emissions during the WOF inspection. So it makes sense to have
your vehicle tuned regularly to ensure its running as per the manufacturers
specifications.
How often you get a tune up depends on a number of thing including the manufacturers
specification, the age and type of vehicle and the type of use it is put to.
The MTA member that carried out this tune up will have advised the next recommended
tune up on the sticker you'll find inside your windscreen.
The final part of your tune up is going into a draw for a chance to win $650
worth of fuel. Each month for three months, three lucky winners will be drawn
and win $650 worth of MTA Gift Vouchers.
