Timing Belt Replacement
The timing belt or timing chain is a crucial part of your vehicle that keeps the internal combustion engine operating. This unit times and synchronizes engine valves to open and close with the position of the pistons at the precise time. Sings you need a new timing belt/chain: • Oil pressure is low. • Engine won’t turn over. • Ticking noises in the engine. • Hard idling. • Engine misfire. Our technicians can diagnose and replace the timing belt with a new and reliable one; we can also inspect the vehicle to make sure that is no other damage done, ensuring your vehicle is safe for the road once more.

Diagnostics
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! -
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! -
Shocks and Struts
Shocks and struts are the main components of the suspension system that stabilizes the vehicle when on uneven surfaces and keep your tires on the tires on the road, whether you’re turning, braking, or accelerating. Shocks absorb the bounce, which keeps your ride more comfortable on those bumpy roads. Signs of worn shocks and struts: • The vehicle is not level. • Tire bouncing. • Unstable highway handling. • Vehicle squatting. • Strange tire wear. • Fluid leaks near the shock and strut areas. Our technicians can efficiently remove and replace your old shocks and struts with quality and reliable new ones — returning your vehicle to a more stable and comfortable ride once more. Contact us today! -
Transmission Service
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! -
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! -
Exhaust Service
The exhaust system on your vehicle is more than just the tailpipe and muffler. This system gathers gasses from cylinders, removes harmful substances, reduces noise levels, and releases cleaner gasses through the exhaust pipes. These components synchronize their jobs with precision for the system to work and enhance or sustain the vehicle’s performance. Signs you need exhaust service • Annoying and irritating odors inside your vehicle. • Loss of fuel efficiency. • Strange vibrations while driving. • Illuminated check engine light. • Louder noise from both the engine and exhaust. We have the skills and equipment to repair or replace your exhaust system. Whether it is a muffler, catalytic converter, or tailpipe, we can diagnose and get you back on the road once more. Contact us today! -
Four Wheel Drive Service
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.
