Vehicles are complex pieces of machinery with various components and systems that are constantly needed for maximum efficiency. It’s important that when a dashboard light comes on or your vehicle is not working properly that you bring it to a professional to look at it before a small problem becomes a big one. With state-of-the-art diagnostic technology, our technicians can read and understand the codes your vehicle is sending to help pinpoint your vehicle’s issue. The signs you need diagnostics are: • Vehicle electronics are unreliable. • Vehicle shutters when it stops. • Black smoke or excessive white smoke from the tailpipe. • Strange noises. • Abnormal smells. • Illuminated dashboard lights. Our technicians have the skills and equipment to diagnose your vehicle’s issue, as well as come up with a solution. Whether it’s the engine, cooling system, or even electrical issues, trust our technicians to find the solution that best works for you. Contact us today!

All-wheel drive vehicles are also known as 4x4s and four-wheel drive vehicles. These vehicles require a specific system, especially when used for off-roading and towing. The four-wheel drive system operates every day and will need maintenance after time. Technicians will inspect components like the locking hubs, axels, differentials, and the transfer case for leaks and wear to ensure your vehicle is safe and at optimum efficiency. Signs you need four-wheel drive service: • Vehicle cannot fluctuate between or stuck in drive modes. • Whistling axel. • Low fluid levels in the differential. • Illuminated dashboard lights. Our team of technicians has the skills and equipment to diagnose and service your four-wheel drive system, whether you need to replace or service the axel, differentials, or transfer case. Contact us today!

The drivetrain is a component that delivers power to your vehicle, transferring energy to the wheels while the differential allows wheels on the same axel to spin at different speeds. Other components of the drivetrain are the transmission, CV joint, U-join, differential, driveshaft, and axel shafts. There are four types of drivetrains, front-wheel drive (FWD), rear-wheel drive (RWD), all-wheel drive (AWD), and four-wheel drive (4WD). Signs you need drivetrain service: • Shifting problems. • Check engine light. • Vibrations. • Unusual noises. • Fluid leaks. We have the skills and equipment to diagnose and fix the problem when it comes to a large system like the drivetrain. Whether you need replacements, repairs, or diagnostics — for quality and reliable service, call us today!

When it comes to the harsh winter season, the type of tires you have on your vehicle is important, especially where you drive. Winter tires are specifically engineered to have the best traction in the cold and are branded with a mountain accompanied by a snowflake. This symbol means the tire complies with severe snow standards. There are some all-weather tires that also are branded with the mountain and snowflake tamp as well. Why buy winter tires: • Prolonged life between summer and winter tires. • Better snow handling. • Incredible performance in the cold. Our tire professionals can help you find the tires that fit your needs and budget, whether you’re looking for designated summer and winter tire combos or an all-season tire. Contact us today!

The transmission is the vehicle’s brain and is a giant gearbox that determines how your vehicle shifts. The transmission transforms the combustion created by the engine and morphs it into real power. Regular maintenance of the transmission is necessary to sustain the life of the transmission and your vehicle. Servicing a transmission is similar to servicing the engine, with an oil and fluid change, inspecting panels, replacing or cleaning the filter, and more. Signs you need transmission service: • Leaking transmission fluid. • Strange transmission odor. • Check engine or transmission light. • Poor acceleration. • Harsh idling. • Poor shifting. • Slipping. Our technicians have the tools and skills to efficiently inspect and service the transmission. Contact us today for transmission service!

The engine air filter is located at the front of the engine compartment and its function is to trap outside debris like bugs, dirt, and sand before it ends up in the engine, allowing only clean air into the heart of your vehicle. Signs you need a new engine air filter: • Low horsepower. • Sooty, black smoke emitting from the exhaust pipe. • Smell of fuel when starting your vehicle. • Physical filter looks dirty. • Check Engine Light is on. We have the skills to check and inform you of your engine air filter’s performance and inform you if the unit needs to be replaced. For an engine air filter replacement with your next scheduled maintenance, call us today!

State inspections, commonly known as state safety inspections, is a procedure regulated by the state government that ensures a vehicle is safe to drive to ensure safer driving conditions. What we do: • Inspect the vehicle ensuring it stands within state regulations. • Provide service options to pass state inspections. Our technicians have the tools and equipment to quickly check the state of your vehicle and abide by the set guidelines. Contact us today for more information on state inspections!

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!
