How much does it cost to get my car tuned up?
I'm planning on taking a longer road trip this fall. I've been saving up money all summer, but I know I need to get my car tuned up before I go. How much will it cost for a tune-up?

Road trips in the fall are some of the most beautiful! The cost of a tune-up will depend on where you go and the services they perform, but a basic tune-up tends to be between $50 and $150. In most cases, a tune-up will include
basic car maintenance
, like:- An oil change
- Filter check
- Engine check
- Plug, wires, and ignition part checks
- Fluid check
If you’ve noticed any issues with your vehicle, you can also let your mechanic know. They can take a look to ensure there aren’t any issues that may impact your road trip.
In addition to a tune-up, consider purchasing a roadside assistance membership if you haven’t already. Although a tune-up can lower your chances of issues during your road trip, there’s always a possibility of a problem coming up. The
Jerry
app offers a great roadside assistance membership for as low as $4.16 per month that covers common issues like towing, flat tires, lockout, and key replacement.View full answer
