Frequently asked questions

Our work comes with a comprehensive warranty that ensures quality and satisfaction. We guarantee that any issues arising from our work will be addressed promptly and effectively. For specific details about the duration and coverage of our warranty, please refer to our warranty policy documentation.

The check engine light can come on for a variety of reasons, ranging from minor issues like a loose gas cap to more significant problems like a faulty oxygen sensor or catalytic converter. It's best to bring your vehicle in for a diagnostic check to determine the exact cause.

Oil change intervals can vary based on your vehicle's make, model, and usage. However, a general guideline is to change your engine oil every 3,000 to 5,000 miles (4,800 to 8,000 kilometers) or every three to six months, whichever comes first. Modern vehicles and synthetic oils may allow for longer intervals, so it's essential to consult your vehicle's owner's manual for manufacturer-recommended oil change schedules.

Regular maintenance includes oil changes, tire rotations, brake inspections, fluid level checks, and replacing air filters. Additionally, following your vehicle manufacturer’s maintenance schedule for services like timing belt replacement and coolant flushes is crucial to keep your car running smoothly.

Yes, our mechanics are highly qualified and experienced. They are certified by recognized automotive institutions and receive ongoing training to stay updated with the latest automotive technologies and repair techniques. You can trust that your vehicle is in capable hands with our team.
