This is Sarah…
I am delighted to share that I have accepted a new opportunity as a NICU RN and will no longer be overseeing the office. Serving our customers has been a rewarding experience, and I appreciate the opportunity to have assisted you with your vehicle needs over the past year.

Is your vehicle’s A/C not blowing cold? Did you know most vehicles 2016 and newer have been converted to the 1234yf Freon? Well we’ve got you covered! Let us check your A/C before it gets too hot!

What sets us apart from other shops? We believe in quality parts, using vehicle specific fluids. Unlike most places we use vehicle specific coolant(most places use a universal fluid). We just started carrying ford motor oil!!! We also vehicle specific transmission fluid.-which is very critical IMO. Wix oil filters and Mobil 1 oil( most filters will only filtrate up to 3500/5000miles). We aim for dealer quality parts/repairs, without the dealer price!!

Are all parts the same? No, not all parts are the same! Does it matter what kind of part we put on your vehicle? Yes, it matters! It’s been almost 4 years since we first opened. Over the years we know what works and what doesn’t. Parts do matter! Our goal is to fix your problem you came in with and never have to deal with that same issue again! A lot of aftermarket parts do not last nearly as long as OEM. There are a select few that out perform or are just as good as OEM. If we don’t trust the part, we don’t install it. Example-2012 Audi Q5-Suspension control arms. Most after market parts for European vehicle don’t last or are not a perfect fit. But on this vehicle we found a great aftermarket brand that outperforms most aftermarket parts. MEYLE is a reputable brand, very comparable to OEM. With a fraction of its cost.

Do you know the effects of a restricted air filter has on your vehicle engine? It makes your engine work harder, you may experience a loss of power, loss of fuel economy.

Now image your hand partially covering your mouth, how hard is it for you to breathe? Imagine trying to run with your hand partially covering your mouth? It’s the same concept with your vehicle’s air filter. Replacing the filter is one of the most affordable maintenance items you can do to keep that engine running like new!!

Do you see anything wrong in this picture?

If the answer is: The back tire is low, you are correct! Having the correct tire pressure is critical! Not only could it put you or others at risk when driving. But it also affects your vehicles fuel economy.

It’s important to have the pressures checked regularly, especially if the tire pressure monitoring light is on or isn’t working (Sarah calls it’s the explanation mark with a letter u).
