Full-Service Diagnostics and Repair Services
Prior to starting repairs, we conduct detailed diagnostics to identify the issue fast and resolve it properly the first time. You receive a detailed plan based on actual readings, not speculation. We utilize advanced testing devices for engine assessment, confirm fault codes with real-time sensor readings, and conduct smoke tests to identify vacuum and EVAP leaks. We thoroughly evaluate all major vehicle systems to identify source problems.
We also ensure ongoing operation with a comprehensive drivetrain evaluation. We evaluate transmission performance, fluid condition, clutch or torque converter operation, transfer case engagement, differential movement, and axle seal condition. We road-test to confirm shifting performance, vibration, and noise. Then we present your options, focus on safety and value, and perform necessary repairs using OEM-specified parts and tested repair protocols.

Questions and Answers
Are Parts and Labor Covered by Warranty?
Absolutely, we offer warranties that cover both parts and labor. We specify warranty coverage by component: many OEM and premium aftermarket parts come with 24-36 months of coverage, while wear items have different terms. Labor is typically covered within 12-24 months, aligning with parts when applicable. We document transferability terms-the majority of coverage stay with the vehicle, not the owner, unless stated otherwise. We'll provide written coverage details with your invoice.
