Preventive Maintenance
If you want to keep your Lexus on the road for as long as possible and avoid any serious problems in the future, you need an expert Lexus service and repair mechanic to carry out preventive maintenance for you. Many drivers make the mistake of waiting until problems arise and then bringing the car in to get fixed. However, if you bring your Lexus to us for maintenance on a regular basis, you can save a lot of money on repairs in the future.
Our expert Lexus mechanics will carry out all of the scheduled maintenance that is recommended by the manufacturer to ensure that your Lexus is always in perfect condition. Some of the preventive maintenance services we provide include:
- Oil Change: Regular oil changes are essential if you want to prevent wear and tear in the engine and keep it running smoothly.
- Brake Replacements: Keeping your brakes in good condition is vital for safety. As part of our preventive maintenance, we will diagnose and fix issues with your brakes or replace them if they cannot be repaired.
- Head Gasket Replacement: Failing to replace your head gasket can lead to some serious engine issues and oil leaks.
- Timing Belt Replacement: The timing belt ensures that moving parts in the engine do not collide with one another. If it is not replaced when necessary, this can lead to a lot of expensive damage to the engine.
We can handle all of these basic scheduled maintenance issues for you and we will always do our best to minimize the amount of work that we carry out so the cost is manageable for our customers.
General Vehicle Inspections
Preventive maintenance, when carried out by a certified expert Lexus mechanic, will deal with most of the common issues that you experience with your Lexus. However, if you are still experiencing problems with your car, you can bring it to us for a vehicle inspection. Using our auto diagnostics system, we can identify and repair any potential problems.
Engine Service
A general vehicle inspection is necessary when you just want to check that your Lexus is in good working order. However, if you notice a specific issue with the engine, we will carry out an engine service and determine what the problem is. It’s so important that you don’t neglect your engine servicing because your car will fail completely if the engine stops working and you may even pose a danger to yourself and other drivers on the road.
We provide a full engine service and repair package for customers in Thousand Oaks and the surrounding area. If we find any issues, we will give you a full explanation of the problem and let you know what the cost of repairs is likely to be before we go ahead.
If you want to make sure that your Lexus is roadworthy, it’s important that you know how to spot the warning signs of engine problems.
Common Symptoms Of Engine Problems
These are some of the common symptoms of engine problems in a Lexus and if you notice any of them, you should come in for an engine service.
- Check Engine Light: The check engine light is there for a reason so it’s important that you don’t ignore it when it starts flashing. It lets you know that there is a problem with the engine but many people don’t know how to diagnose the specific issue. That’s where we come in, so bring it in for an engine service.
- Strange Noises: Hearing strange noises is never a good sign. If you notice a spluttering or grinding sound coming from the engine, it needs to be serviced. This is often down to a problem with the spark plugs or the battery, which are easily replaced.
- Low Mileage: Low mileage is a very common symptom of engine problems and it costs you a lot of money. In most cases, it’s not a difficult problem to fix and a general engine service will make all of the difference.
Brake Repair
It is unsafe to drive your car if the brakes are not working correctly. Our expert Lexus mechanics will check your brakes during their regular service of your car and if there are any issues, we can deal with them. However, if you notice any difference to your stopping distance or any strange noises when you brake, you should bring your Lexus in right away. The brake repair services that we offer include:
- Brake replacement
- Replacing brake pads
- Replacing or repairing brake rotors
- Maintaining brake pumps
- Repairing brake cylinders
- Changing brake fluid
A/C Repair
If you want the luxury driving experience that Lexus is known for, you need to make sure that features like your A/C are working properly. The good news is, problems with A/C units are usually fairly simple and it often comes down to a lack of refrigerant. We can easily top up the refrigerant for you and while we are doing it, we will also use a dye to identify any leaks. If there is a more serious issue with your air conditioning, we offer a comprehensive A/C repair service.
If you are looking for an expert Lexus mechanic in the Thousand Oaks area, we can meet your needs. We provide an excellent service to customers throughout Ventura Country, so get in touch today and we can make sure that your Lexus is in perfect working order.
