Full service auto repair

Diagnostics

Advanced diagnostics to find problems fast and get you back on the road.

A check-engine light is a starting point, not a diagnosis. We read the codes, test the system that set them, and tell you what is actually wrong before we sell you a part.

When to come in

  • Check-engine or ABS light is on
  • The car stalls, hesitates, or will not start
  • A new noise showed up after a recent repair
  • Fuel mileage dropped without a clear reason

Examples

  • Computer scan
  • Visual inspection
  • Targeted testing
  • Plain-English write-up

General Repair

From minor fixes to major repairs, we handle it all with expert care.

Most of what comes through the door is not a named service — it is a car that does not feel right. We inspect, explain, and repair what is needed.

When to come in

  • Something broke, leaked, or started making noise
  • A warning light you have been ignoring
  • A repair another shop started and did not finish

Examples

  • Inspection
  • Estimate before work
  • Quality parts
  • Road test when it applies
Full details

Oil Changes

Keep your engine running smooth with quality oil and filters.

Oil is cheap insurance. We use quality oil and filters, check the rest of the car while it is here, and tell you if anything else is actually due.

When to come in

  • You are past the mileage or months on the sticker
  • Oil looks dark or the level is low
  • A change-oil light is on

Examples

  • Oil and filter
  • Fluid check
  • Tire pressure
  • Service reminder sticker
Full details

Brakes

Safe stopping power starts with expert brake service and inspection.

Grinding is not a personality trait. We measure pads and rotors, check hoses and fluid, and tell you what can wait versus what should not.

When to come in

  • Grinding, squealing, or a pulsating pedal
  • The car pulls when you brake
  • Brake warning light is on
  • The pedal feels soft or long

Examples

  • Pad and rotor measurement
  • Fluid check
  • Hardware as needed
  • Road test
Full details

Maintenance

Stay ahead of problems with scheduled maintenance services.

Factory schedules exist because parts wear out on a clock. We follow what the car needs — filters, fluids, belts, plugs — and skip the menu that pads the invoice.

When to come in

  • You are past a service interval
  • You bought the car and do not know what is due
  • A shop quoted a long list and you want a second look

Examples

  • Interval check
  • Fluids and filters as due
  • Written list of what can wait
  • Reminder sticker

RI State Inspection

Official Rhode Island safety and emissions inspections, done right the first time.

Rhode Island requires a safety and emissions inspection every 24 months for light-duty vehicles. The sticker is $55 today (rising to $75 on 2027-01-01) and is good for two years.

When to come in

  • Sticker month is this month or already passed
  • You just moved to Rhode Island
  • You failed somewhere else and want a straight answer

Examples

  • Safety inspection
  • Emissions (OBD-II or visual as required)
  • Gas-cap check
  • Sticker when you pass
