Frequently asked questions
Do you do major engine work, or just small repairs?+
Both. We handle everything from leaks and misfires to major engine work. We diagnose first and explain the options, including whether a repair or a replacement makes more sense for your car.
Is engine repair worth it, or should I replace the car?+
It depends on the car and the repair. We give you an honest diagnosis and the price, then you decide. Financing is available for larger repairs so you can fix the car you have.
