Frequently Asked Questions

Ever heard of "junk in = junk out"? That's true in the auto repair industry as well and VERY true here. I am only as good as the information you give me. In spite of the fact I can guess right with the best of them, I have limits. I cannot tell you where your oil leak or water leak is coming from. I cannot tell you what a smell or a vibration is. But I have written FAQs about those issues with the very best advice I can give you on how to find them, what to look for, and how to isolate the issue.
