Engine and Exhaust System

• Engine Repair
• Oil Change
  An oil change is like a transfusion of new life into your vehicle. Over time, oil can lose some of its chemical properties that are designed to reduce corrosion and increase the lubrication in your engine. In some environments, dust and dirt can also find their way into your crankcase, so a regular change of your oil and filter are paramount to the long service life of your car or truck.

• Fuel Injection Service/Repair
  First, there are many electrical components needed to start successfully. A well-charged battery is necessary to turn the starter. The battery will also provide voltage to the ignition coil(s), as well as provide power to the fuel pump and fuel injection system. Spark plugs need to be clean and have a proper “gap” to allow the fuel in the cylinder to ignite.

Transmission and Drivetrain

• Transmission Service
  Whether it’s every 30,000 miles, 48,000 miles or 100,000 miles, Don’s Auto Repair will follow your vehicle manufacturer’s recommended transmission service interval.
• Transmission Repair
  Every day, your transmission works hard to keep you and your car on the go. The fluid that lubricates all of the transmission’s moving parts works just as hard as the transmission and should be changed as recommended. Over time, that fluid may get contaminated or lose the ability to keep your transmission performing at its peak. Your vehicle’s manufacturer is aware of this fact. So, they recommend getting your transmission flushed and a transmission fluid changed at specified maintenance intervals. This keeps your car running newer, longer.
• Transmission Fluid Service
• Differential Service/Repair
• Axle Repair
  Axles transmit the power of your engine to the drive wheels. They are usually set into the transaxle on a front-wheel drive vehicle, or into a differential if the vehicle is rear wheel drive. Modern all-wheel drive vehicles will typically use both.

Steering and Suspension

• Suspension Service/Repair
• Steering Service/Repair
  A powerful cleaner suspends and dissolves varnish and gums in the power steering system and then all of the old fluid is replaced with new high-tech power steering fluid for both conventional sector and rack and pinion. The benefit will be a quieter-operating, longer lasting power-steering system.

Heating and Cooling

• Air Conditioning Service/Repair
  Condensation in your vehicle’s air conditioning system promotes fungus, mold and bacterial growth that is blown into the passenger compartment. Add to this nauseating smell the sound of an A/C compressor making a clacking sound due to a depletion of oil.

Tires

• Tire Rotation
  Brake pads and rotors take a massive amount of abuse, as they are the main component that turns the rotational energy into heat. This means that these parts are designed to wear out over time, so it’s important to inspect your brakes regularly...usually at every tire rotation or anytime the wheels of your vehicle are removed.
• Wheel Alignment
  Most cars today require 4-wheel alignment, which can best be achieved by our Hunter Hawk Eye laser alignment rack. It’s important to have your wheels aligned whenever you have new tires installed, as they will move your wheels “out-of-spec” just by being new! Potholes, speedbumps, dirt roads or even snow berms can tweak your wheels out of alignment, so whenever you’ve put your vehicle through a few uncomfortable bumps or bounces, you’ll want to make sure your alignment is still within specification.
• Tire Service
  To track properly down the road, your wheels and tires must be pointing in the same direction. This is called alignment. To be able to turn, and move properly over bumps and dips in the road, the wheels and tires work with the suspension, and have certain angles and measurements “built in” by the manufacturer for best handling and overall driving comfort. If your wheels are not set to these precise measurements, excessive tire wear and poor handling will result.

Brakes

• Brake Service
• Brake Fluid Service
  Brake fluid becomes oxidized and contaminated over time and use. Heat and moisture cause corrosion on parts and brake fluid failure. This causes a spongy brake pedal and shows up in discolored brake fluid.
• Brake Inspection
  When it comes to road safety, there are few components of your vehicle as critical as the braking system. Your brakes are responsible for stopping your vehicle promptly and efficiently, preventing accidents and ensuring the safety of everyone on the road. Regular brake inspections play a vital role in…

Electrical and Electronic

• Lighting Services
• Battery Service
  Extreme heat and cold are hard on automotive batteries. If your vehicle is a few years old, have the battery and charging system tested to be sure that your battery has the power to start your vehicle and that your alternator is recharging the battery as it should.
• Electrical Service/Repair
  The electrical system in your vehicle is like the nervous system in your body...sensors generate impulses that are distributed, then processed, and those processed impulses are sent to some other area to display information, actuate another sensor or mechanical device, or provide power for device operation.
