BRAKES SERVICES

When brake components are replaced the brake lines will need to be purged / bled of air. Brake fluid absorbs moisture causing rust and corrosion. It makes sense to flush the brakes at this time. This presents a good opportunity to rotate the tires since they will be removed at this time. Rotating tires helps them wear evenly and last longer. Remember to have your brakes checked regularly and replace them if low. Waiting to long is not only dangerous but can lead to serious damage to your rotors and calipers.

LUBE-OIL SERVICES

An oil change is more than just changing oil! It is a preventive maintenance check, all major fluids are topped off / checked, and the air filter is inspected. Where visible, brakes are checked and oil leaks are identified. Belts are inspected for cracks and dry-rot. Hoses are checked for leaking and deterioration. We use Valvoline oil with a premium filter. We offer conventional and synthetic oils depending on application and customer preference. Special oils including Mobil 1 are available.
