Drive Train Service
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! -
State Emissions Testing
Emissions control is the reduction of air pollutants emitted by vehicles. Some states require a state emissions test to regulate pollution levels from vehicles. These state-mandated inspections are regulated by government guidelines to ensure air safety in their communities and contribute to cleaner breathing conditions. What we do: • Inspect the vehicle emissions ensuring it stands within state regulations. • Provide service options to pass state emissions. Our technicians can repair and inspect emissions from your vehicle. We abide by the guidelines set in our inspection standards, which determine if your vehicle is fit for the road. Contact us today for more information on emission services! -
Check Engine Light Service
Your dashboard is the way your vehicle communicates with you, from informing you that needing more windshield wiper fluid to low fuel; however, some lights may not be as straightforward as the others. Your check engine light, also known as the service light, tells you when something may be or is wrong with your vehicle. If this light is flashing, immediate attention is needed. The signs you need diagnostics are: • Service light continuously stays on. • Service light is flashing. • Abnormal vehicle sounds when the service light is on. Our technicians can perform a full diagnosis of your service light and come up with a plan to have the issue taken care of and the code reset and removed. For a complete service light diagnostic solution, contact us today! -

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.

Fuel Filter
The duty of the fuel filter is to screen out unwanted particles that may be in with the fuel to ensure that the fuel that reaches the engine is clean and free of these harmful particles. Fuel filter replacement is regular maintenance that aids in your vehicle’s lifespan and overall efficiency. Signs you need a fuel filter replacement: • Difficulty starting your vehicle. • Components in your fuel system start failing. • Loud noises from your fuel pump. • Rough idling and misfiring. • Vehicle stalling. Our technicians can diagnose to see if you are in need of a new fuel filter. Ask about a fuel filter replacement the next time you stop in for scheduled maintenance. Contact us today! -
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.

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! -
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.
