Diagnosis of intricate computer systems in vehicle control air conditioning, radio, locks, airbags, traction and cruise control, to name a few. In majority of cases, our technician must go through a very complicated diagnosis flow chart procedure, so that they can track down the problem and determine why it happened in the first place, all at the same time. They have to do that in order to repair your check engine light properly and prevent any serious problems in the future.

When it comes to your engine, timing is everything. We can assist with the synchronization of the crankshaft to the camshaft.

When auto air conditioning systems break down, refrigerant leaks. Not only is refrigerant harmful to the environment, but it's also harmful to your car.

Both vehicle ride height and tire pressure affect your vehicle's suspension system.

The use of Synthetic Oil will increase your engine life. We also inspect gaskets and seals for oil leaks. You might assume by replacing a faulty gasket/seal would fix a leak, however, after working on cars my entire life (with the exception of childhood……. mostly), I have found that there is significant Merritt to some leaks best left alone. They are expensive to fix and do typically (if minor) are of no harm to the vehicle.

Do you find your steering wheel doesn't track as straight as it used to? Is there a wobble or shimmy at highway speeds you don't remember experiencing in the past? Your suspension requires regular maintenance, and all vehicles are designed with multiple alignment/adjustment points to enable those adjustments. Car manufacturers design suspensions with the expectation that they will be inspected and adjusted frequently to maintain stability and minimize tire wear.

We handle all engine repairs and can bring power and efficiency back to your car.

The modern automatic transmission is by far, the most complicated mechanical component in today's automobile. Automatic transmissions contain mechanical systems, hydraulic systems, electrical systems and computer controls, all working together in perfect harmony which goes virtually unnoticed until there is a problem.
