Chevy parts

If your Chevrolet isn’t feeling as responsive and powerful as it once did, it may be time to consider talking to our

Chevy parts department

about replacements and upgrades. Many upgrades can improve your driving experience in small ways, but some offer an outsized effect from a small investment, so if you want a vehicle as ready for your next adventure as you are, these are great investments in a smoother drive.

Parts to Upgrade

Nothing improves your car’s handling, performance, and efficiency than a high-quality set of tires. Northeastern winters can accelerate tire wear, and tires not prepared for icy conditions can be dangerous to drive on, so you should consider getting two sets of high-performance tires, one designed for cold weather and another for warm.

If you’re looking for ways to make your drive more pleasant, consider upgrading your brakes. New brake pads, especially pads designed for your type of driving, improve the feel of coming to a stop immensely, keeping you safer and your drive more enjoyable. Replacing rubber brake lines with stainless steel brake lines and you’ll feel even more response.

Parts to Replace

Certain parts of your powertrain do not respond much to upgrades, and simply need to be occasionally replaced. Oil and oil filters keep your engine lubricated during motion and naturally become dirty, so replace them regularly. Engine air filters also need to be replaced. Over longer periods of time, your battery, spark plugs, and other moving parts will all need servicing, so check your owner’s manual for a recommended timetable.

Even though Toms River is well into summer, its not too late to make sure your car is ready to deal with the hot weather. Our

Chevrolet service

center offer these tips that will help you get better performance out of your vehicle, as well as save you money:

Test Your Battery

If your battery is on the older side, it may struggle to get your car started in very high temperatures. This is why testing it to see how much charge is has left is important. If this is running low, you can have it replaced.


Oil Change

In order for your engine to run as efficiently as possible, the oil needs to be changed regularly. This is especially essential now, as you may be driving more or perhaps you have some long road trips planned. Another big benefit of an oil change is that you will see your gas mileage improve.


Check Tire Pressure

The air pressure in your tires needs to be at the correct level for a couple of reasons. First, if its too low or too high this creates a dangerous driving situation. Secondly, improperly inflated tires cost you money, as they hurt your fuel economy.


Top Off Fluids

If you havent looked under the hood at your cars fluid levels, nows the time to do it. Its vital that the fluid is at the right levels for every system that uses them. Perhaps the most important right now is your air conditioning, so you should make sure it has enough refrigerant.

car mechanic

If your Chevy vehicle needs a major repair or replacement, due to an accident or just age, youll have an important decision to make: Should you spring for the

Chevy repairs

or trade the car in for something else? Here are some factors to consider:

Recurring Issues

If your car has always been reliable but you need a repair due to a collision, it may be the right move to have it fixed. However, if you find yourself frequently needing lingering repairs, it might be time to move on. Ask one of our experts whether the cost of repairs is worth keeping your old car, or if its time for a replacement.

The Cars Value

Its always a good idea to know how much your car is worth, as this will let you know if fixing it makes financial sense. Even if its relatively new, if a big and expensive repair is needed, the better course of action may be to trade it in.

Your Other Options

Once you weigh the cost of the repairs against the value of the car, you should have a pretty good idea of what works best. It is, important, however, to think about things like current inventories and prices. You might determine that even a large expense for fixing up your car is more economically viable than buying another vehicle.

If your car is facing a big repair, get in touch with the service center at

EV Car Charging

While you may be excited to buy an electric vehicle so you’ll never again have to worry about gas, you don’t want to drive one home without knowing how to keep it charged.

It makes the most sense to have a EV charging station installed beforehand, and this guide tells you what you need to know.

What Kind of Home Charging Stations Are There?
There are three different kinds of charging stations: Level 1, 2, and 3. Level 3 stations are the ones you see around town. They involve high quantities of power and get cars juiced up fast. This is why this type is not meant for home use.

Level 1
The most basic charger is what you have all of your electronic plugged into right this minute: a regular 120-volt outlet. This can charge your car’s battery, but you will only get up to five miles of driving range added per hour.

Level 2
Level 2 charging involves using a 240-volt outlet, which provides a lot more power. This can generally get a battery powered up in less than 10 hours.

Installing a Level 2 Charger
Having a 240-volt outlet installed in your garage can be a pretty quick and easy task. If you have a dryer – especially if it’s in your garage already – you may be able to get an adapter for its outlet to make things even simpler. It should be noted that in some places, homeowners are required to connect a charger to their home’s circuit, which is a more involved project.

Once you’ve got your home charger squared away, it’s time to find the perfect electric vehicle to use it with. Visit Lester Glenn Chevrolet in Toms River, NJ to see what’s in stock.

Gas pump

With gas prices at scary-high levels, drivers need to do all they can to get the most out of a tank. For some, it may be time to look at the newer fuel-efficient cars for an upgrade. However, even if a new car isn’t feasible, you can still boost your gas mileage with a few strategic tactics.

1. Removing Clutter
Excess weight – especially if it’s more than 100 lbs. – will hurt your fuel economy. This is why you should make a point to remove any clutter that doesn’t need to be in your car.

2. Following the Speed Limit
While it may be tempting to get where you need to go as quickly as possible, speeding is something else that has a negative impact on your gas mileage. The same is true for accelerating very fast or having to brake hard.

3. Putting an End to Idling
Idling in traffic is often unavoidable but idling in your driveway doesn’t have to happen at all. If you do this frequently, put a stop to it and see how much money you save on gas.

4. Properly Inflating Your Tires
You may not realize it, but when your tires are underinflated, your car uses up gas faster. This is why you should check the air pressure regularly to make sure it is at the right level.

5. Getting Your Oil Changed
Another thing that wastes gas is old oil. Sludgy oil can’t supply adequate lubrication to the moving parts in the engine, meaning the engine has to work harder, which results in fuel being used up at a quicker rate.

The service center at Lester Glenn Chevrolet in Toms River, NJ can help you maximize a tank of gas. Contact us to make an appointment.

Chevy Malibu

Even though pretty much any shiny car may look great to a new driver, not all of them are the right choice. Here are three reasons why the 2022 Chevy Malibu could be perfect.

1. It Gets Great Gas Mileage
These days, everybody needs to be conscious of how often they need to get gas, and perhaps especially for people on strict budgets. This is why the Chevy Malibu is ideal for newer drivers.

The base 1.5-liter, four-cylinder engine offers 29 MPG in the city and 36 MPG on the highway, which are outstanding numbers for the class. Even the bigger 2.0-liter, four-cylinder will give you 22/33 MPG city/highway, though it should be noted that it requires premium gas.

2. It Can Come Equipped with Advanced Safety Features
When you don’t yet have a ton of driving experience, it helps if your car is designed with safety in mind. Every Chey Malibu comes with a rearview camera, brake assist, and traction control.

Best for parents, if also comes with the Teen Driver system, which allows limits to be set for speed and stereo volume. Many other safety features can also be added, such as forward automatic emergency braking, rear cross-traffic alert, and lane departure warning.

3. It Has the Latest Tech Components
The Chevy Malibu is a very tech-savvy sedan, as every model has a user-friendly infotainment system with an eight-inch touchscreen. It also comes with:

  • Push-button start
  • Proximity keyless entry
  • A six-speaker stereo
  • A USB port
  • Bluetooth®
  • Wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™
  • A Wi-Fi hot spot

You can also get wireless device charging, a nine-speaker Bose® stereo, and a navigation system.
