Rotors don’t always require replacement; instead, they can often be resurfaced. A comprehensive brake job necessitates a new surface on both the rotor and the pad. Contact us today to schedule a brake inspection at your earliest convenience.

Working on imported cars often requires creativity and expertise, especially when direct replacement parts aren't available. Take this imported Honda Odyssey, for example. It was shipped all the way from Augusta for us to solve a frustrating issue: random stalling. After a thorough diagnosis, we pinpointed the problem—a faulty distributor.
However, the JDM Odyssey uses a distributor that's different from the US market version. But that challenge didn’t slow us down! We meticulously disassembled the distributor, identified compatible US market parts, and rebuilt it to perfection. Now, this Odyssey is back on the road, running flawlessly.

Tech Tip of the Day: Torque specifications are not just suggestions—they're crucial!
This Ford Fiesta came to us with a misfire after another shop performed a full tune-up, including replacing the ignition coil. Unfortunately, the spark plugs were over-torqued, causing the porcelain to crack. As a result, the plugs were firing through the side rather than at the electrode.
Thankfully, after installing new spark plugs torqued to the correct specifications, the vehicle is back on the road and running smoothly.
