EXPRESS PLUS SERVICE (PREMIUM)

Does your car have a few things going on with it you want to get figured out? Want to also know of anything else of concern? With this job we will figure out a few "not too complicated" items and also drive your car, put it in the air and look for anything else that catches our eye or for anything related to what we noticed on our test drive. We will also scan it for codes if you have any warning lights/messages. If any further diagnostics are needed, we will advise on that. TELL US YOUR CONCERNS IN THE NOTES SECTION WHEN FINALIZING THIS APPT. This service will be done by a diagnostic tech or master tech.

LEVEL 2 DIAGNOSTIC (DROP OFF FOR THE DAY ONLY)

Actual cost for diagnosis will be $20 to $100.  If we just need to put it up in the air and the leak is obvious, its $20.  If there are multiple leaks and/or oil coating the powertrain and it is not obvious, we will likely do a "leak powder test", which would be $100. This would generally include steam cleaning, blow drying, then spraying a special white powder on suspected areas.  We then run the car in the air on the Iift for 15+ minutes at an elevated engine speed to boost oil pressure and help identify leak using the powder.

DIAGNOSE AN OIL LEAK

Can be anything you perceive as an electrical problem.

Actual diagnosis price will vary from $0 to $150, depending on how much time we spend.

FOUR WHEEL ALIGNMENT 

WE HAVE THE MOST ADVANCED ALIGNMENT EQUIPMENT AVAILABLE AS OF 2024

* We prefer that you drop off your car for the day for an alignment, as sometimes things have to be re-adjusted, but you can WAIT on it, please just know that in some cases it can take more than an hour.

We will drive it before alignment, adjust "TOE" on all four wheels.  Camber adjustment, which is not adjustable on most cars, and subframe shifting to adjust Caster is typically an additional $55, but not commonly needed.

Is your steering wheel not "centered" or does your car veer to the left or the right when you let go of the steering wheel on a level road?  Did you just get new tires and want to make sure they don't wear prematurely? Have you not had an alignment in several years?  Yes to any or all of these questions and you probably could use an alignment.



If your car is lowered ALOT, we may not be able to get it on our alignment rack.  Expect S2000 or NSX to be up to $110 more to align as they have many more adjustment points.

ALIGNMENT

Two quarts of fluid with a detergent additive, then two quarts of fluid with seal conditioning additives are flushed through the system. Dispelling almost all of the old fluid.
