Small services that prevent big repairs.

Most expensive repairs start as something small that went unnoticed: oil changed too late, a slow coolant leak, a worn belt. Regular maintenance is how you catch those early. Your owner's manual lists what your car needs and when, and that's what we go by, not a one-size-fits-all checklist.

Many owner's manuals list hot weather and stop-and-go traffic as severe driving conditions, which describes a lot of Austin driving. If that's you, some services may be due sooner than the standard schedule.

We'll tell you what your car is actually due for, and what can wait.

Worth keeping an eye on

Austin heat is hard on cars. These are the basics to watch.

  • Oil

    Follow your owner's manual or the car's oil-life monitor, and check the level between changes.

  • Coolant

    Your cooling system works hardest in a Texas summer. Low coolant or a sweet smell after driving is worth a look.

  • Battery

    Heat is hard on batteries. If the engine is slow to crank, have the battery checked before it leaves you stuck.

  • Tire pressure

    Pressure changes with temperature. Check it monthly, using the numbers on the driver's door-jamb label.

Common questions

Something else on your mind? Call (512) 923-4919.

How often should I change my oil?

Follow your owner's manual or your car's oil-life monitor. Many newer cars on synthetic oil go 5,000 to 10,000 miles between changes, while older cars and severe driving conditions call for shorter intervals.

Will maintenance at an independent shop affect my warranty?

No. Federal law (the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act) lets you have routine maintenance done at the shop of your choice. Keep your receipts as a record.

What's included in a tune-up?

It depends on the car. On modern cars, a tune-up usually means replacing spark plugs and filters at the intervals in your manual and checking for problems. We'll tell you what your car is actually due for.

Do you work on all makes and models?

Yes. We do maintenance on all makes and models.
