• What should I expect when getting a preventative maintenance check on my car?
• What does my auto shop do when they do a 30,000 mile check on my car?
• What are the three kinds of car repairs? Preventative/Inspection, Pre-prescribed and Maintenance, Part Repairs
• Is a fuel-injection service necessary at 10,000 miles?
• 2007 Mazda: If I’m not driving my car for 3- 4 months at a time, what services should I be getting to keep it running smoothly?
• 2013 Chevy Camaro: Is there synthetic oil that you recommend for my car?
• Are things such as CV joints and power steering pumps part of regular maintenance?
• 2008 Acura TLX: I’ve replaced the clutch twice and I’m wondering if I should be purchasing a different part so that the clutch would last longer?
• 1989 Nissan Maxima with 115,000 miles: I was quoted $2,500 to replace a transmission and I’m wondering if it’s worth it for an older car?
• 1996 Toyota Forerunner with 230,000 miles: My vehicle runs great and I’m going to be getting major tune-up done and a new timing belt but am wondering what else you’d recommend for maintenance work in order to keep it running smoothly.
• 2009 Pontiac G5: Will a bad fuel filter give off a bad odor?
• 2003 Chevy Cavalier: I recently fixed my a/c and repaired it with a re-manufactured compressor but my track off light and my check engine light has gone on and it’s shifting really hard.
• 2002 Honda Accord: Is $400 for a new starter too expensive?
