01

Engine Repair

Common symptoms of engine trouble include rough idling, power loss, or strange knocking noises. We’ll inspect for worn components, leaks, or mechanical failures and address the root of the problem to restore your engine’s performance.

02

Engine Performance Check

If your engine isn’t running as efficiently as it should, you might notice reduced fuel mileage, sluggish acceleration, or rough idling. Our performance check focuses on key engine-specific areas like compression, fuel delivery, and ignition timing to diagnose internal issues.

03

Belt Replacement

A worn or broken belt can lead to overheating, power steering loss, or engine failure. We check your serpentine and timing belts for cracks, wear, or looseness and replace them before they cause major damage.

04

Hose Replacement

Leaking or damaged hoses can cause overheating or reduce engine efficiency. We examine all hoses for cracks, leaks, or wear and replace any that could lead to coolant loss, vacuum leaks, or engine overheating.

05

Cooling System Repair

Overheating is one of the most common causes of engine damage. If you see temperature spikes, coolant leaks, or steam under the hood, we’ll investigate the cooling system, including the radiator, thermostat, and fans, and make necessary repairs to prevent further damage.

06

Radiator Repair & Replacement

A leaking or clogged radiator can’t properly cool your engine, leading to overheating. We’ll look for radiator leaks, corrosion, or blockages and either repair or replace them to restore proper cooling function.

07

Water Pump Repair & Replacement

A failing water pump can lead to overheating and engine damage. Common signs include coolant leaks or a whining noise near the front of the engine. We’ll inspect, repair, or replace the water pump to maintain proper coolant flow and prevent overheating.

08

Drivability Diagnostics & Repair

If your car hesitates, struggles to accelerate, or feels off while driving, the issue could involve more than just the engine. Our drivability diagnostics evaluate fuel delivery, transmission response, steering, brakes, and electrical systems to identify what’s affecting your car’s overall performance.

09

Fuel Injection Repair & Service

If your car is misfiring, idling rough, or burning through fuel too quickly, you may have a clogged or malfunctioning fuel injector. We clean, repair, or replace injectors to restore proper fuel flow and improve engine performance.

10

Fuel System Repair & Maintenance

A healthy fuel system ensures efficient fuel delivery and prevents costly repairs. We go over fuel pumps, lines, filters, and injectors, addressing any leaks or clogs that could impact your engine’s performance or fuel economy.

Good service. The person I spoke with was Luke. Everything was up front, pricing and service. The repair work was done quickly and correctly. I plan on keeping my Subaru Outback for a long time. At 118K miles, it is still a baby. I gave him a short laundry list…
