What I fix
Services
Mobile repair that comes to you — driveway, parking lot, or job site. No shop markup, no upsells. Just the work your vehicle actually needs.
Oil & Fluids
Regular fluid maintenance is the cheapest way to keep a vehicle running long-term.
Oil & filter change
Conventional or synthetic — your choice. Old filter out, new one in, proper torque on the drain plug.
Coolant flush
Flush old coolant and refill to spec. Prevents overheating and corrosion inside the cooling system.
Transmission fluid service
Drain and refill or full flush depending on your vehicle's service interval and condition.
Brake fluid flush
Moisture-contaminated brake fluid raises boiling point risk. Flush and refill with fresh DOT fluid.
Power steering fluid
Check, top off, or flush power steering fluid to keep steering smooth and protect the pump.
Brakes
Brakes are safety-critical. I replace only what's actually worn — not everything on the axle.
Brake pad replacement
Measure existing pads, replace when at or near minimum thickness. Front, rear, or both axles.
Rotor replacement
Measure rotor thickness and check for warping. Replace when below spec or causing pedal pulsation.
Brake caliper replacement
Seized or leaking calipers cause uneven wear and pulling. Replace the offending caliper and bleed the line.
Brake line repair
Rusted or damaged brake lines are a safety issue. Fabricate and replace the affected section.
Brake bleed
Remove air from the brake system after any hydraulic work to restore a firm pedal.
Engine & Tune-Up
From routine tune-ups to diagnosing a check engine light — I work on the engine, not around it.
Spark plug replacement
Worn plugs cause misfires, rough idle, and poor fuel economy. Replace on schedule or when symptoms appear.
Air filter replacement
Clogged air filters restrict airflow and hurt performance. Quick swap, big difference.
Serpentine belt replacement
A snapped serpentine belt leaves you stranded. Replace before it fails — usually every 60–100k miles.
Thermostat replacement
A stuck thermostat causes overheating or a heater that never warms up. Replace the thermostat and gasket.
Check engine light diagnosis
Scan codes, interpret the data, and tell you exactly what's wrong — not just the code number.
Valve cover gasket
Oil leaking from the top of the engine usually means a failed valve cover gasket. Replace and clean up the mess.
Battery & Electrical
Electrical gremlins are frustrating. I diagnose the actual cause instead of throwing parts at it.
Battery replacement
Test the existing battery and charging system. Replace the battery if it's failing — correct group size and terminal type.
Alternator replacement
A bad alternator drains the battery while driving. Test output, replace if below spec.
Starter replacement
Slow cranking or a click-and-nothing response usually points to the starter. Test and replace.
Fuse & relay diagnosis
Blown fuses and failed relays cause all kinds of weird electrical behavior. Trace the circuit and fix the root cause.
Charging system test
Full test of battery, alternator output, and voltage drop across the charging circuit.
Drivetrain
Clunks, vibrations, and pulling under acceleration — drivetrain problems don't fix themselves.
CV axle replacement
Clicking on turns or vibration under load means a worn CV joint. Replace the axle shaft.
U-joint replacement
Worn U-joints cause driveline vibration and clunking. Replace before they fail completely.
Wheel bearing replacement
Humming or grinding that changes with speed is usually a wheel bearing. Replace the hub assembly.
Transfer case service
Drain and refill transfer case fluid on 4WD and AWD vehicles per the service interval.
Suspension & Steering
Worn suspension makes a vehicle unsafe and uncomfortable. I replace what's actually bad.
Strut / shock replacement
Bouncy ride, nose-diving under braking, or uneven tire wear — worn struts and shocks need to go.
Ball joint replacement
Worn ball joints are a safety issue. Inspect and replace when play is detected.
Tie rod replacement
Loose or worn tie rods cause wandering and uneven tire wear. Replace and recommend an alignment.
Sway bar link / bushing
Clunking over bumps often traces back to worn sway bar links or bushings. Quick fix, big improvement.
