Belt inspection and replacement is an important key to keeping you on the road and off the side of the road!

This belt wasn’t making a peep…

We found it during a routine vehicle health inspection. One rib already gone, and it was only a matter of time before the rest followed.

That’s why we inspect every vehicle that comes through the shop. Sometimes the problems you don’t know about are the ones that could leave you on the side of the road.

Not every repair is a quick fix.

This diesel (LLY Duramax) got some serious attention. While it’s apart, we installed head studs instead of factory bolts to give it a stronger foundation when it goes back together.

Doing the job right isn’t always the fastest route, but it saves headaches down the road.

If your truck has been pushing coolant, building pressure, or just isn’t acting right, don’t ignore it. Catching problems early is almost always cheaper than waiting until something lets go.

This Audi came in with a misfire.

Could’ve easily been one of those jobs where somebody throws plugs and coils at it and hopes for the best. Happens all the time.

But the numbers weren’t adding up.

After some testing, the problem ended up being a burnt valve. So now it’s down to the cylinder head and getting torn apart the right way instead of gambling with the customer’s money replacing parts it didn’t need.

This is the side of the industry most people never see. Sometimes a check engine light is simple. Sometimes it turns into pulling an entire cylinder head off an Audi because one valve decided it no longer wanted to participate in society.

The code told us which cylinder was mad.

It definitely didn’t tell us why.

This is where actual diagnostics still matter.

What are your thoughts on no thermostat and using valves?

Your next coolant flush might need a scan tool. The 2027 Silverado 6.6L cools itself unlike any small block before it, and it explains why two familiar towing options quietly vanished from the order guide. 🧰 Link to the story in the first comment. 👇
