In order to keep your car running, you must ensure that it is regularly serviced.
Honda Oil Change
Changing the oil in your car is essential to ensure that the engine receives the required lubrication to keep it running smoothly. Every time you get a oil change, the dirt and grime for the engine are drained away with the old oil. If you don’t change the oil, you run the risk of the engine dirt clogging your engine and wearing it down. Depending on the engine type and the oil required, check your vehicle manual for the oil change schedule or call us and we’ll help.
A/C Repair
You only have to spend one day in Ventura County without air-conditioning to know how important it is to your car. It is not uncommon for a car to reach a scorching temperature inside when left in the sun. If you discover that the air conditioning in your car isn’t working well, you will need to have it exclaimed to determine the issue. We can perform auto ac repair straight away, but if it is a more complicated issue, we generally have the parts on-site to get you back on the road as soon as possible.
Transmission Service and Repair
The transmission of your car can be one of the most basic parts but it is necessary to have one. Simply put, it is the car’s gearbox, and if it isn’t working properly, your car will not be able to drive. Having a transmission service on your Honda car is a regular part of the maintenance of the car. How often this service needs to be carried out depends on a lot of factors, but generally, you should consider serving the transmission every 60,000 miles.
Timing Belt Replacement
If you have ever heard your car squeak and squeal, and it is not the tires, it might be the timing belt. If this is the case, you need to get your car to our repair shop ASAP! If the timing belt on your car snaps, the engine can be thrown out of placement and will suffer from a catatonic failure. A timing belt normally lasts around 4 years so make sure you know when the last belt was fitted, especially if you are buying a used car. They are inexpensive to replace so if you are not sure, and don’t want to take any chances, stop by and see if we can do the timing belt replacement service.
Engine Service and Repair
Having your engine regularly serviced is essential, especially if you are driving a high-performance vehicle such as a Honda. An engine service is an in-depth look at all of the parts of the engine to ensure that they are running properly. This type of inspection is not the same as a regular service but should be considered essential maintenance for your Honda. During the service, we will check and clean the major components of your engine to ensure that your car runs smoother for longer. However, if your Honda check engine light is flashing, this means your engine is suffering from a major problem and it needs to be addressed immediately.
Head Gasket Replacement
When you are faced with a head gasket failure, this can sometimes mean the death of your car. But it isn’t all bad news. The issue comes with the damage to the surrounding parts when the gasket blows. If there is a lot of damage to the other parts, then the engine might be a goner. However, if the damage is just to the gasket, you may need a head gasket replacement and continue to enjoy your Honda. Normally the head caskets blows because of an overheating issue so it is important to ensure that your engine fluids are regularly topped up.
Suspension Repair
Having a suspension issue isn’t always clear, but if your car is difficult to control or you feel it pulling to one side, you might have an issue. In our state of the art repair shop, we have the capability to check your suspension system and carry out any repairs that you might need. It is important to remember that the suspension system on your Honda is an important piece to ensure that your ride is smooth. Only allow a specialist to carry out this important suspension repair service.
Radiator Flush and Repair
Inside the radiator of your car, deposits of rust and limescale can build up over time. In order for your car to run smoothly, you need to have a radiator flush carried out. Having a radiator flush is necessary to keep the engine within the normal temperature range when the car is switched on. If this is not regularly taken care of, you run the risk of a massive engine failure, including having the head gasket blow. Don’t leave it to chance and speak to our technicians about how often you should have this performed. If you do find yourself with an overheating engine repair, do not worry as we are happy to assist you with your Honda engine repairs.
Fuel Injection Service
Just like other parts of the car, fuel deposits build up. During the fuel inspection service, our mechanics will ensure that every part of the fuel system is clean and well lubricated. Cleaning the system will ensure that your engine receives the fuel in a more efficient manner and your Honda’s performance is increased.
