- Engine Repair
- Oil ChangeFixcarnow was started in 1988 by Chance Brown with the idea to make it easier to service your car. Chance went to the nearest Jiffy Lube to get an oil change. 2 1/2 hours later the oil change was done and the vision of Fixcarnow was born. Chance would bring the oil change to the consumer while he or she worked, and what better time to take care of your car then while you are working and the car is not in use.

- Timing Belt/Chain ReplacementThey say timing is everything, and when it comes to timing belts this saying is particularly true. Since the cost to repair the damage caused by a timing belt failure can be quite high, it is very important that you have your timing belt replaced at recommended intervals. Generally this is between 50,000 to 70,000 miles, but some models can go as high as 105,000 mile intervals. We recommend you become familiar with and check your owner’s manual and know when to have this important maintenance work performed. If you have any questions regarding the timing belt service and any other routine maintenance needs, contact the technicians at Fixcarnow in West Los Angeles.
- Fuel Injection Service/RepairThe first step of a tune up begins with replacing the fuel filter. This may also include cleaning the fuel injection system if your auto is so equipped. Changing the spark plugs and possibly the wires is the next step. This depends on which type of spark plugs you have, as some cars have platinum spark plugs which do not need to be replaced as often and may need to be completely replaced at every other tune up.

- Air Conditioning Service/RepairYour car’s air conditioning system works via the collaboration of the compressor, condenser, expansion valve and evaporator. Refrigerant/Freon is compressed in the compressor and made into a hot gas. From there it passes into the condenser where it is cooled to a liquid state and moved to the expansion valve where it is turned to a low-pressure gas. From there it cools in the evaporator and is blown by fan through the vents to cool the car.

- Brake RepairSigns that your vehicle needs brake repair include squeaking, roaring, hissing and squealing when you press down the brake pedal. Pressing the brake pedal down should be easy and smooth. If you feel vibration, shaking or any sort of pull or unevenness when you press the pedal, be sure to stop in and see us right away. These signs could mean you need anything from new brake pads, to a refill of brake fluid, to repair or replacement of your rotors. The most important thing is that if you hear or feel something amiss, come see us right away. If you wait too long, the chances increase for more serious damage to occur. Since rotor and drum damage may require complete replacement, we recommend you see us as soon as you can. This expense is entirely avoidable with early brake pad repair.
- Brake Replacement
- Dent RepairSmall dent repair businesses are becoming quite popular. Many customers compare the prices offered by these pop up shops with visiting a professional body repair shop. The rule of thumb is that when obtaining a car dent estimate for repair, you could safely use the 1-inch guideline of around $25 per inch, over and above the base price. Special tools are needed for dent repair, and the tools are expensive to buy. If you hire an expert in auto body repair you are paying for the expertise the professional will demonstrate when they complete a repair on your vehicle. They will have paid a great deal of money to train in the art of dent repair, and their prices reflect their skills. When having a specialist repair a car dent, cost is a negligible factor compared to the performance of the artist, just as with any other skill.
