We offer the expertise to decipher check engine light codes, resolve the required maintenance or repair issues, and get your car on the road safely without the worries of an illuminated “check engine light.”

TRANSMISSION SERVICE & FLUSH

Automatic transmission fluid serves a multitude of purposes. Among other things, it cleans, cools, lubricates, transmits force, transmits pressure, inhibits varnish build-up and protects the transmission.
For best results you should have your car’s transmission fluid and filter changed every year or 15,000 miles.
The majority of transmission failures are heat-related because automatic transmission fluid breaks down rapidly when subjected to high temperatures.

DRIVE CASE SERVICE

Eventually, the protective additives in the drive case oil break down. Replacing the oil at the manufacturer’s required service interval will help to prolong the life of the gears and bearings within the differential ensuring your car’s turning remains nice and smooth.

BRAKE SERVICE & REPAIR

You should always be aware of the condition of your brakes at all times since normal travel wears them down. From the brake pedal to hydraulic brake fluid, brake master cylinder to power brake booster, drum brakes to disc brakes and electronic anti-lock brake sensors, our technicians know every part of your brake system inside and out.

RADIATOR & COOLING SYSTEM

Car overheating can come from a variety of sources. With engine combustion temperatures reaching 2000° F and higher, there is a lot of heat to deal with.
The radiator it is a vital part of engine’s cooling system. Therefore it is important to keep it maintain and serviced.
When servicing the radiator and changing the coolant it is important to inspect and replace any leaking, brittle, spongy, cracked, or rotted hoses when necessary.

BELTS & HOSES

Sooner or later your car’s engine accessory drive belts, timing belts, and coolant hoses will eventually dry out and crack.
Keeping your timing belt in working order is crucial to the overall health of your vehicle.
Drive belts provide power to engine-mounted accessories like the power steering pump, air conditioning compressor, mechanical cooling fan, and air injection pump.
In order to help protect against roadside breakdowns and expensive repairs we recommend regular inspections, coupled with timely automotive belt and hose replacement.

OIL CHANGE

Oil is the lifeblood of your engine because it reduces friction, lessens wear, provides lubrication, forms a seal between the pistons, rings and cylinder walls while helping to cool engine parts. Without the cleaning action of new oil, carbon and varnish buildup would be toxic to the engine.
Periodic oil and filter changes keep your engine clean on the inside. Motor oil can become contaminated by dust, metallic shavings, condensation, and even antifreeze. Because additives break down over time they can also act as contaminants.

AIR FILTER REPLACEMENT

Driving with a dirty filter restricts the air entering the engine, and if severe, can impact fuel economy and performance.
Because the typical air filter is a disposable, pleated-paper element with a sealing gasket made of synthetic material it should be changed every 9,000 to 12,000 miles.

FUEL FILTER REPLACEMENT

Fuel filters trap harmful contaminants that may cause problems with carburetors and intricate fuel injectors.
A contaminated filter can restrict fuel flow from your car’s electric fuel pump, eventually taking a toll on its life.
Fuel injection systems maintain pressure in the lines that must be relieved prior to filter replacement. So it’s best to have your car’s fuel filter replaced by a qualified service professional.

A/C & HEATING REPAIR

AC systems have components that require attention to avoid drying out and cracking. Let us service your A/C or heater to keep you comfortable at any temperature.
Heater systems will also need regular check-ups from time to time to make sure they have no leaky valves or blockages.

STEERING & SUSPENSION

There are many symptoms of a faulty suspension system and being aware of common warning signs can save you from having expensive repair costs, not to mention keeping your passengers safe. Some warning signs may include a vehicle’s tendency to pull to one side when driving, wheels wiggling and wandering back and forth, bouncing/dipping AFTER going over a bump, steering wheel slipping, difficulty steering, wheel vibration, and screeching or screaming noises when steering at low speeds.
Utilizing the latest diagnostic equipment our certified technicians can repair, service, and diagnosis your steering system and suspension to keep you and your vehicle on the road safely and with a smooth ride.

LIGHTS, WIPERS & ACCESSORIES

Our technicians can help improve your visibility by inspecting and replacing windshield wiper blades, headlamps, turn signals, and brake lights, as well as filling your windshield washer fluid.
For best results, replace the wiper blades twice a year, each spring and fall. When worn or damaged, bad wipers can do more than impair visibility; they can also damage the windshield.

BATTERIES, STARTING & CHARGING

Your vehicle’s battery and its connections should be checked at every oil change. Battery connections should be clean, tight and corrosion-free.
Batteries don’t always give warning signs before they fail. Our trained professionals can test your car battery and replace it if necessary with a battery from leading brands.
If your car won’t start, the car battery isn’t always the only suspect. It could also be a starter, alternator, or spark plugs.
