🔧 EVER SEEN A TRUCK CAB COME OFF? 👀

This isn’t your everyday repair! 🚘

We’re working on a Ford F-150 that needs a timing chain replacement, and on this job, that means removing the cab to get the access needed to do the repair.

💪 Big jobs take experience, the right tools, and a whole lot of know-how! What might look like a little more than an engine repair is actually a major project that requires careful work from start to finish.

🎥 Check out the video and pictures to see a behind-the-scenes look at what it takes to get the job done!

Car tip Tuesday!

🚨 CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON?

A check-engine light doesn't automatically mean you need a new engine—or even a major repair.

It simply means the vehicle's computer detected something outside of its expected parameters.

The important part is finding out why the light came on.

Sometimes it's something simple.

Sometimes it's not.

Either way, guessing and replacing parts isn't a diagnosis.

Did you know an oil leak doesn't always come from the place where you see the oil dripping?

Oil can leak from a higher point on the engine and run downward, making it look like the leak is coming from somewhere else.

That's why properly diagnosing a leak is important before replacing parts.

If you see an oil spot under your vehicle don't ignore it! 👀

🔧 A LITTLE MAINTENANCE CAN SAVE A LOT OF MONEY

One of the easiest things you can do for your vehicle is keep up with routine maintenance.

Change your oil every 5,000 miles!! Don't wait until the oil-life light tells you it's time. Regular oil changes are one of the simplest and most important things you can do to protect your engine.

Oil changes, filters, tire condition, fluid levels and regular inspections can help catch problems before they become major repairs and major $$$.

🚛 When the job gets tricky, we get creative! 💪

This Silverado came to us missing a front wheel after a control arm snapped. Getting it into the shop the normal way wasn’t an option….

Instead of pulling the truck to the bay, we brought the tow truck into the bay! With some careful maneuvering, we backed the tow truck inside, slid our lift under the Silverado, and then had the tow truck ease out so we could secure everything safely.

🔧 Problem solved.
🚙 Truck is now in the air.
👌 Repairs underway.

At Scott’s Auto, we’re not just fixing cars—we’re solving problems and we’ll find a way to get you back on the road all 4 wheels ROLLING!

🐭 When “AC noise” turns into “A mouse in the house”! 🐭

Customer States: A/C is loud when the fan is on. We pulled the blower motor and found it stuffed with nuts and acorns — clearly someone had moved in and was storing up for winter! 🥜

We cleaned it all out, sent the car on its way… and a few days later, it was back making noise again. This time? We found the tenant himself — a mouse spinning his own little fan club! 😅

Moral of the story: if your A/C sounds like it’s alive, it just might be! Unfortunately, this little guy didn’t make it.
