Keeping your vehicle in excellent condition begins with a series of car, SUV, or truck maintenance services. One of these tune-ups includes having your brakes checked for wear and tear or damaged parts. When you need new brakes or repairs, trust our team of certified mechanics.

 

Why is it important?

One of the most important routine vehicle services you can get in Philadelphia, PA, is brake service. The brake system provides the ability to stop a vehicle efficiently and safely and, therefore, is a vital component of driving safely. A well-maintained brake system protects the car, driver, passengers, and others sharing the road. Periodic inspection of friction material, vital system components, and hydraulics help to ensure efficient system performance and cost-effective repairs.

What do we do?

During a brake service, our service technicians begin with a thorough inspection of a vehicle’s brake linings and key components. A written evaluation, with detailed diagnoses of findings, is provided and reviewed with the customer. Service recommendations are based on the vehicle manufacturer’s specifications and the existing condition of brake components that impact system performance.

How often should you have brake inspections done?

Vehicle manufacturers recommend brake inspection at regular intervals, usually every 12,000 miles, to ensure vehicle safety. This will also guarantee you will only need cost-effective repairs. We will recommend repairs based on vehicle manufacturer specifications and existing conditions for brake linings and other key components.

Many states and local authorities require inspections and tests to determine if the vehicle meets state and local vehicle safety and emission standards. Our technicians expertly perform state and locally defined vehicle emissions testing and inspections to ensure your car is safe and legal.

With as much as you paid for your vehicle, you want to keep it on the road as long as possible, and that’s why car tune-ups are so essential. A full-service oil change is more than an oil change; it’s preventive maintenance to change, inspect, check and fill, and clean critical components in your vehicle and help keep it all running smoothly. By taking care of your car, you’ll be getting the peace of mind that your car will be with you for a long time.

You will know you need this important vehicle service in Philadelphia, PA, when:

  • Your check engine or oil change light turns on
  • You hear loud engine noises or knocking while driving
  • The oil is dark and dirty

It’s vital to schedule oil changes at regular intervals, so look over your owner’s manual to see what these intervals should be and ask your local mechanic.

As your one-stop vehicle maintenance and repair shop, we provide a range of A/C services to vehicle owners throughout Philadelphia. These services include A/C maintenance and auto air conditioning repair. We’ll keep your car cool so you can ride in style without breaking a sweat.

How Car A/C Systems Work

The function of an air conditioner is to help remove the heat and humidity from inside the passenger compartment of the vehicle. Powered by a belt, the air conditioning compressor compresses the refrigerant to pressurize it and pump it through the system. The refrigerant is pushed through a valve where pressure and temperature are reduced. The now-cool refrigerant travels through the evaporator in the passenger compartment. As a result, cooled air is blown into your vehicle. This refrigerant returns to the compressor, where the cycle begins once again.

What We Do

Our certified technicians will:

  • Visually inspect the air conditioning compressor drive belt for cracks or damage
  • Visually inspect accessible components for leaks or damage
  • Check the operation of the air conditioning compressor and other air conditioning components
  • Evacuate refrigerant from the system
  • Vacuum test the system
  • Recharge the air conditioning system using the appropriate refrigerant to the system capacity according to the vehicle manufacturer’s specifications

We are proud to offer engine air filter replacement services in the Philly area to keep your vehicle’s engine going strong.

Why is it important?

Air is drawn into the engine as a critical part of the combustion process. The engine air filter captures airborne contaminants, such as dirt, dust, and even bugs, before they can enter the engine. A dirty, clogged engine air filter can contribute to poor overall engine performance.

What is the service?

The engine air filter is removed and inspected. If necessary, a new, clean engine air filter is installed.

We provide free tire alignment checks to ensure your car drives smoothly and in a straight line. Wheel alignment also protects the lifespan of your tires and prevents them from wearing unevenly.

During our tire alignment checks, we will conduct wheel angle measurements and compare them against your vehicle manufacturer’s specifications. Once this is done, we will give recommendations based on the results.

Another one of our vehicle services in Philadelphia, PA, includes radiator antifreeze/coolant services. Your engine coolant keeps your car’s engine warm in the winter and cool in the summer, so you don’t want to skip getting these fluid levels checked.

Why is it important?

The engine cooling system in your vehicle circulates antifreeze through the engine and radiator. The antifreeze is formulated to prevent corrosion inside the cooling system and helps to maintain optimal engine operating temperature regardless of outside conditions. Replacing the antifreeze at regular intervals can help prevent overheating, freezing, and premature cooling-system corrosion.

What is the service?

Per your vehicle manufacturer’s recommendations, the old antifreeze is removed from your radiator and replaced with new antifreeze.

The drivetrain serves two functions: it transfers power evenly from the engine to all drive wheels and varies the amount of torque. The drivetrain may include the differential, a transfer case (in four-wheel and all-wheel-drive cars), and the transmission (see Transmission Services). We keep your drivetrain working correctly by maintaining and repairing the differential.

Why is differential service important?

The differential is a special gearbox located between the drive wheels of your vehicle. It allows the drive wheels to turn at different speeds, as they must when turning a corner. Over time, high operating temperatures can cause the lubricating fluid in the differential to break down, developing a gummy texture that doesn’t properly lubricate the gears. Replacing the fluid can help you avoid premature wear on the gears in the differential and can even help reduce wear on drive-wheel tires.

What is the service?

The old differential fluid is removed and replaced with new lubricating fluid based on your vehicle manufacturer’s recommendations.

Is your check engine light on? Bring your car, truck, SUV, or motorcycle to our shop! We will use a specialized diagnostic tool to test for issues in the key vehicle subsystems, including the engine, ignition, fuel, or exhaust. We will analyze the error codes from the tester report and then recommend ways to resolve the problem.

Every time a vehicle’s driver presses the gas pedal, they control how much fuel and air the engine takes in. The pedal tells the throttle valve how much air to let in, and the computer tells the fuel system how much fuel to deliver. These calculated amounts of air and fuel are typically mixed together before being sucked into the combustion chamber of an engine cylinder. There, the spark plug ignites the mixture, producing the controlled burn that powers the vehicle. Because the fuel powers the engine, it’s important for it to be as clean as possible.

 

Make sure you schedule routine fuel system maintenance because cleaning the fuel system:

  • Helps remove fuel varnish build-up
  • Helps remove intake valve deposits
  • Helps reduce cylinder head deposits

During our fuel system cleaning service, we will clean the fuel system and combustion chamber with multi-step cleaners, ensuring your vehicle performs as it should.

We’ll keep your ride smooth with our suspension services. Our team will inspect and analyze the suspension and steering systems, including the shocks and struts. If we detect any issues, we will recommend cost-effective solutions.

We perform a full range of tire services, from free tire alignment checks to affordable tire replacement. We also offer our tire rotation service.

Why is it important?

Tires may wear differently depending on their position on the vehicle, your driving style, and the condition of your suspension. Regularly rotating your tires can evenly distribute their wear — helping you get the most miles out of your tires while maximizing traction on all four wheels.

What is the service?

During this service, our technicians will change the position of the tires on your vehicle according to your vehicle and tire manufacturers’ recommended rotation pattern.

*Return to our service center within 5-50 miles of a Tire Rotation Service and get your lug nuts/bolts re-torqued free of charge.

We will remove the old transmission fluid and replace it with new, clean fluid.

Transmission gears deliver power from the engine to the drive wheels, shifting automatically to provide the best power and efficiency for your driving speed. Special transmission fluid cools and lubricates the gears. Over time, this fluid degrades, and its lubricant qualities diminish. Changing the fluid at the correct intervals can help prevent premature wear and damage to the transmission.

What is the service?

Our team will remove the old transmission fluid and replace it with a new, clean fluid of the grade recommended by your vehicle manufacturer.

Are you having trouble seeing while it’s raining outside because your wipers are only smearing the water across the windshield? It could be time for a windshield wiper replacement. Let us help you restore your visibility while driving with new wiper blades.

Why is it important?

Windshield wiper blades are made of a soft rubber compound. Over time, the elements break down that compound and make it brittle. As this happens, your windshield wipers will leave streaks, potentially affecting your ability to see the road ahead and compromising your road safety.

What is the service?

With every oil change, we inspect your wiper blades and let you know if they are cracked, split, torn, or brittle, indicating that it’s time for a replacement. With your go-ahead, we’ll change out the wiper blades for you.
