Computer diagnostics and  Check engine / warning  lights,

    All those lights, symbols and warnings you see flash across your instrument panel mean something is
    wrong. Your vehicle is talking to you, Your vehicles computer system is telling you that something
    needs attention! Ignoring these warning signs wont make them go away.

    Transmission and Engine performance diagnostics,

    When you bring your vehicle in for service one of first things we will ask is, Have there been any check
    engine or other lights coming on? After listening to your service concerns we will perform a quick
    visual inspection that will usually include a computer code check and under hood inspection. After the
    visual inspection we will attempt to duplicate your concerns. Please be prepared to answer as many
    questions about your symptoms or requested service as possible. The more information we have the
    faster we can  diagnose and repair your vehicle. After these first initial checks  we can then decide on
    the next course of action. We may need to further scan your vehicles’ on-board computer for codes
    and data, Inspect or  listen to suspected components with a stethoscope, perform electrical or
    hydraulic pressure tests. Once we are able to perform a diagnostic you will be given an estimate for
    the repairs. We do not charge for initial road test and consultation, we do not charge for computer
    code checking for most late model vehicles. Most of your vehicles problems can be diagnosed right
    away but some problems may take longer and require more effort. We utilize the most complete and
    comprehensive digital library of repair manuals available.(Mitchell on demand) The latest generation
    of computer scanners. Technical hot lines for hard to diagnose problems and an experienced staff
    that knows how to use its resources.

         Standard Transmissions and Clutches

    After verifying customer concerns Standard Transmissions and clutch diagnostics include any or all of the
    following; checking for noise, for proper operation, gear clash, stiff shifting, clutch pedal height and feel,  
    slippage, fluid levels-condition, and visual inspection
        
        
  
    Differential  Diagnostics

    After verifying customer concerns differential diagnostics include any or all of the following; checking
    for noise, for proper operation, fluid level and condition, and visual inspection


    Differential,
    A device that splits the engine torque two ways, allowing each output to spin at a different speed. The
    differential is found on all modern cars and trucks. and also in many all-wheel-drive (full-time four-
    wheel-drive) vehicles. These all-wheel-drive vehicles need a differential between each set of drive
    wheels, and they need one between the front and the back wheels as well, because the front wheels
    travel a different distance through a turn than the rear wheels. Part-time four-wheel-drive systems don't
    have a differential between the front and rear wheels; instead, they are locked together so that the
    front and rear wheels have to turn at the same average speed. This is why these vehicles are hard to
    turn on concrete when the four-wheel-drive system is engaged.

   
     
Transfer Case diagnostics

    After verifying customer concerns transfer case diagnostics may include any or all of the following;
    checking for computer codes and correct data, listening for noise, testing for proper operation,
    checking for correct tire size and inflation, fluid level and condition, and visual inspection

    Transfer Case,
    A device that splits the power between the front and rear axles on a four-wheel-drive (4WD) vehicle.
    4WD systems locks the front-axle driveshaft to the rear-axle driveshaft, so the wheels are forced to
    spin at the same speed. This requires that the tires slip when the car goes around a turn. 4WD
    systems like this should only be used in low -traction situations in which it is relatively easy for the tires
    to slip and should not be used On dry asphalt where it is not easy for the tires to slip.
    The transfer case in an all-wheel-drive (AWD) system contains a device that allows for a slight amount
    of slip between the front and rear wheels. This could be a viscous coupling, center differential or other
    type of gearset. These devices allow an AWD system to function properly on any surface.
