Wheel Balancing
Wheel balancing is a process of distributing the weight of the tire and wheel assembly evenly when traveling at high speeds. This process required the wheel to be removed from the vehicle and placed on our wheel balancer and spun to decide where the weight should be distributed to. It’s common for a tire to become unbalanced after hitting a large pothole, curb, or if you leave your vehicle parked for extended periods of time. Signs you need wheel balancing: • Steering wheel vibration. • Vibration in the seats or floorboards. • Uneven tread wear. Our technicians efficiently remove and remount your tires professionally, which prolongs the life of your tires and makes your ride more comfortable. Contact us today! -
Water Pump Service
The water pump is a crucial part of the cooling system of your vehicle; it delivers coolant between the radiator and the engine, which prevents your vehicle from overheating. Regular maintenance to ensure fluid levels are maintained and no leaks are found will keep your vehicle from harsh repairs in the future. Signs your water pump needs service: • Overheating. • Coolant leaks. • Strange noises from the engine compartment. • Strange odors inside the vehicle. Our technicians have the skills and tools to diagnose if your water pump needs repair or replacing, we also provide inspections to see any potential issues during maintenance service. 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! -
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! -
Fuel Injectors
Fuel injectors replaced old carburetor systems to ensure the vehicle’s efficiency and to reduce air pollution. Fuel injectors spray fuel into a vehicle’s engine using valves that open and close, which is evenly repeated multiple times a second for prime combustion and efficiency. Signs your fuel injectors need replacing: • Vehicle misfiring. • Vibrating engine. • Rough idling. • Vehicle stalling. • Reduced fuel economy. • Illuminated dashboard lights. Our technicians can diagnose what fuel injector needs replacing and see if any more injectors are going out. Ask your technicians about your fuel injectors the next time you schedule maintenance. Contact us today! -
Tire Rotation
Tire rotations are necessary maintenance that strategically shifts and repositions the tires on your vehicle to sustain the tread life of your tires and distribute wear more evenly. Signs you need a tire rotation: • Uneven tire tread. • Tire vibrations. While you’re in for your next scheduled maintenance, ask about a tire rotation. Our professions will ensure that the rotation is properly done, and your tires are secured once more. Contact us today! -
Belts and Hoses Service
There are two important types of belts in your vehicle, which are your timing belt and serpentine belts. Timing belts are vital for your engine to start and function as it transfers the power from the camshaft to power the crankshaft; if this belt were to break, your engine would immediately stop working. Serpentine belts are often called drive belts and power different components within your vehicle like the radiator, power steering pump, A/C compressor, alternator, and more. Hoses play another vital part in your vehicle’s efficiency. Types of hoses are fuel hoses, brake hoses, coolant/radiator hoses, power steering hoses, and heater hoses. Hoses are essential for transferring coolant and other fluids through your vehicle to prevent things like overheating, power loss, poor braking ability, and more. The signs you need a belt replacement are: • The engine is steaming. • A/C failure. • The feeling of something catching, vibrating, or slipping while driving. • Check engine lights or other dashboard lights turn on. • Leaks from your vehicle like brake fluid, coolant, fuel, etc. We have the tools and equipment to find any fluid leaks or significant belt wear and tear as well as diagnose if you have any hoses or belts that need replacing. Trust our technicians to get the job done right. Contact us today! -
Tire Pressure Monitoring System
The TPMS monitors your tire pressure in real-time to always report if your tires are ready for the road or low on pressure. This system consists of a sensor that can connect to dashboard lights that illuminate when there are potentially unsafe driving conditions. Having your sensor replaced when getting new tires is not required but often helps sustain the life of the TPMS. Signs your TPMS is going out: • Misreading tie pressure. • Malfunctioning. • Loss of fuel economy. • Tire pressure light with proper tire pressure. Our technicians can diagnose to see if the TPMS sensor is going out or if it’s another electrical component that is affecting it. We can replace the sensor or the entire system. Contact us today!
