Differential Service
The differential is a crucial part of a vehicle’s drivetrain that divides the torque of the engine between the wheels, giving them the ability to turn at different rates when necessary. This system is initiated when turning corners. Differentials differ depending on the drivetrain — for instance, the differential is on the rear axle on a standard rear-wheel-drive vehicle, the differential is on the front transaxle on a front-wheel-drive vehicle, and finally, there are two differentials for all-wheel-drive vehicles — on both the front-end and rear-end axles. Signs you need differential service: • Whistling noises. • Vibrations. • Gear grinding. • Rubbing or clunking noise. • Sluggish performance. We have the skills and equipment to service the differential, whether you need a full replacement, or a partial rebuild like side and pinion seals or gasket, gear, or bearing replacements. Contact us today! -
Towing Service
When your vehicle is down, immobilized, or stuck in a ditch leaving you or your loved ones stranded on a backroad or highway, our professionals are here to ensure that you and your vehicle are brought safely out of harm’s way. Signs you need a tow: • Collision. • Engine stalled. • Electrical failure. • Overheating. We offer towing options to ensure your vehicle can be efficiently brought into a shop and out of danger. Contact us today for towing options! -
Vehicle Tune Ups
A tune-up is a maintenance service that inspects and replaces the components of the combustion process like spark plugs, wires, or coils. It also inspects filters, fluids, belts, and hoses — giving you insight into any potential small issues that can build in bigger problems. Signs you need a tune-up: • Engine stutter. • Harsh idling. • Maintenance or dashboard lights. • Strange engine noises. • Diminishing fuel economy. Our technicians have the skills and tools to efficiently inspect and replace components during the tune-up process, keeping your vehicle safe and ready for the road. For more maintenance options, contact us today! -
PCV Valve
The Positive Crankcase Ventilation Valve is a one-way street to your vehicle’s crankcase. The crankcase is what holds the motor oil at the bottom of a vehicle’s engine. When your vehicle is burning fuel, it will create gases and — before emissions — the exhaust system releases these gases. How to tell if you need a PCV Valve Replacement? • Oil leaks. • Whistling from the engine. • Sludge around the engine. • Blown out seals or gaskets. • Check engine light illuminated. Our technicians have the skills and equipment to replace the PCV valve, returning your vehicle to optimum efficiency once more. Contact us today! -
Cabin Air Filters
The cabin air filter seems to always be that extra add-on your mechanic asks about every time you get routine maintenance, but what does this filter do? This filter comes standard on newer vehicles and cleans the air within your cabin. Cleaner air in your vehicle’s cabin aids in a more comfortable drive, whether you have allergies, respiratory issues, or even when you don’t have medical problems. Changing out this filter will help prevent unwanted dust, pollen, or other pollutants from coming into your vehicle cabin. The signs you need a new cabin air filter are: • Intact ducts inside your vehicle are whistling. • Annoying noises when using A/C or heat. • Unpleasant odors when the air is on. • Weak or lessened airflow, whether you are not using climate control on high or not. When you need a cabin air filter replacement, we supply quality air filters, and our technicians can replace them quickly and efficiently while they finish up any maintenance you need on your vehicle. Contact us today! -
Coolant and Antifreeze Service
Your cooling system has a fluid that circulates within it to ensure its reliability, this is coolant/antifreeze. However, this fluid's effectiveness can decrease over time and get dirty. A fluid flush will remove all the unwanted fluid and replace the dirty fluid with clean fluid for better vehicle performance. Signs you need a fluid inspection: • Colored fluid leaking from your vehicle. • Illuminated dashboard lights. • Strange odors from your vehicle while on or off. Our team has the skills to check and ensure your vehicle coolent is clean and at the right level, as well as inspect if your fluid lines are intact or need to be replaced and then flush them when they are dirty. Contact us today! -
Flat Repair
Flat repair comes in handy when your tire can be fixed rather than replaced. The wheel is removed from the vehicle and plugged and adhered with a sealant, sealing the tire, then professionally placed back onto your vehicle and making it safe for you to drive once more. Signs you may need flat repair: • A tire puncture that is not in the shoulder or sidewall of the tire. • Constant loss of tire pressure. • Vehicle shaking. Not every tire can be repaired, but when it can be we have the tools and skills to ensure you will be safe on the road until you are ready for your next set of tires. Contact us today!
