- Transmission ServicePretty much everyone knows that your transmission is the most complicated part of your car. Clocking in at 800 individual pieces, transmissions are finely tuned and are an extremely delicate piece of machinery. The transmission, which is responsible for changing the gears in your car as you gain or lose speed, can seriously sideline your car if it has a problem. You can avoid this problem by keeping up with your car’s transmission maintenance. And if your car does end up with a transmission issue, the pros at Viking Automotive in Houston, TX can help.
- Transmission RepairWhen it comes to transmission repair, there is good news and bad news. The good news is that transmission problems usually occur in older vehicles and tend to appear slowly over time. Getting your vehicle repaired at the first sign of transmission trouble is a sure-fire way to avoid the bad news – transmission issues tend to be among the most expensive repairs out there. So when you feel a gear slip, hear grinding noise when changing gears or smell something strange while accelerating, you may have transmission troubles. At the very first sign of an issue, make sure to get your car to the bays at Viking Automotive. If we catch the problem while it’s small, we can save you plenty of headaches – and dollars.

- Air Conditioning Service/Repair
- Air Conditioning RechargeIs your AC not blowing as hot or as cool as it used to? Is it blowing strong, but it’s just air? An issue could cause problems with a hose in the loop, a problem with refrigerant levels, or, in some more severe cases, the compressor, the accumulator, the evaporator core, or the condenser. All these components make up the AC system in your car, so it can be hard to know what it is just by looking. Thankful our mechanics know just the proper tests to perform to find the fix. The fix could be as simple as replacing a hose or a quick AC recharge. Unfortunately, it could involve replacing a cracked AC condenser, a failing accumulator, or even the evaporator core on the flip side. No matter the cause, Viking Automotive has a solution, and your repairs can be completed within your budget. We never expect these things to go wrong or stop working, but it helps to know you have a reliable auto shop to lean on when times get tough.
- Wheel AlignmentWhat is a wheel alignment? It is the process of adjusting a vehicle’s suspension to bring the tires in line with one another, and to make sure all four tires hit the road at the same angle. When you bring your vehicle in for a wheel alignment, we will put it up on our lifts and connect it to our special computer alignment device. Our technician will then work with your vehicle’s suspension and wheels to bring all four tires into line. It is a relatively simple and quick process, but one that is invaluable not just for your tires but your entire vehicle. If you’ve noticed your car pulling to one side or another while driving in a straight line, or you feel your wheels vibrating or shaking while driving, you may be in need of a wheel alignment. The only way to know for sure is to bring your vehicle into Viking Automotive and have our wheel alignment pros take a look.
- Tire ServiceAt Viking Automotive in Houston, TX, we understand that there is only one point of contact between your car and the road – your tires. Keeping up with your tires and their health may not be something you think about every day, but it is an essential piece of maintenance that will not only keep you safe but also extend the life of your car. Part of keeping your tires in good working order is proper wheel alignment, which helps your tires wear more evenly and ensures you have as smooth a ride as possible. If your car is in need of either a wheel alignment or tire services, Viking Automotive is a name you can trust.
- Brake ServiceSo you have come in for a brake service/inspection, and we found something that needs replacing. Not a problem. That is just what we do here at Viking Automotive. The most common issue that needs repair when it comes to brakes is pad replacements. When you press on the brake pedal, this closes the caliper, the housing that holds the brake pads, which applies pressure to the rotors slowing you down. This friction created between the pads and rotors causes the pads to wear down and need replacement. Other repairs include rotor resurfacing/replacement, brake fluid flushes, brake line replacements, and caliper replacements. Viking Automotive does it all.
- Brake Fluid Service
- Brake InspectionEvery car has its own designated scheduled preventative maintenance. Each car owner can identify when these services are needed by consulting the car’s owner’s manual. Alternatively, like most car owners, you could just bring your vehicle to an expert auto shop. Here at Viking Automotive, we have worked on almost every kind of car. With these years of experience, coupled with a vast network of information our service systems provide about each vehicle, we can know when your car’s scheduled maintenance is required. Preventative maintenance consists of an oil change, brake inspection, fluid check/top-offs, and more. These minor, inexpensive services help to prevent a more expensive, major repair in the future. Don’t skimp out on preventive maintenance.
- Brake RepairNo matter your plans for your day, a big family trip, or just your daily commute to work, your brakes take a toll. Every car and driver combination wears their brakes differently. The three main factors that equate to brake pad wear are driving habits, make/model of your car, and the environment in which you live. The good news is that no matter where you live, how you drive, or what car you drive, Viking Automotive in Houston, TX, is here to help repair and maintain your brakes, keeping you and others safe. We are the brake repair Houston #1 choice!
