Complete Automotive Care Solutions

Our Birmingham location handles everything from oil changes to engine rebuilds. We provide routine car maintenance that prevents problems, plus emergency repairs when something unexpected happens.

Michigan’s harsh conditions demand specialized knowledge. Road salt attacks metal components year-round, while extreme temperature swings stress everything from batteries to cooling systems. We understand exactly how local conditions affect your vehicle and what preventive measures actually work.

Beyond standard auto repair, we specialize in custom builds and classic car restoration. Performance upgrades, custom paint work, or bringing vintage vehicles back to life—we have the expertise to turn automotive dreams into reality. Some projects are about more than transportation; they’re about craftsmanship and passion for cars.

Auto repair costs depend entirely on what’s wrong with your vehicle. Basic maintenance like oil changes run $40-80, while brake pad replacement typically costs $150-300 per axle. Major repairs like transmission work can range from $800-3000.We always provide detailed estimates before starting any work. This lets you make informed decisions about what to fix immediately versus what can wait. We also offer financing options to help manage larger repair costs.The smartest approach is preventive maintenance. A $100 service today often prevents a $1000 repair later. Regular inspections catch small problems before they become expensive emergencies.
Don’t panic, but don’t ignore it either. Your check engine light means the car’s computer detected a problem affecting emissions, fuel economy, or engine performance.Sometimes it’s simple like a loose gas cap. Other times it signals serious issues like catalytic converter failure or engine misfires. Professional diagnostic testing is the only way to know for certain.You can usually drive short distances, but avoid hard acceleration or highway speeds. If the light flashes instead of staying steady, that indicates immediate danger—pull over safely and call for help. Get diagnostic testing within a day or two of the light appearing.
Most modern vehicles need oil changes every 5,000-7,500 miles, but Michigan’s climate affects this schedule. Cold winters make engines work harder during startup, while stop-and-go traffic creates additional stress on oil.If you make frequent short trips (under 10 miles), drive in dusty conditions, or sit in traffic regularly, you need more frequent changes—every 3,000-5,000 miles. Severe driving conditions break down oil faster than highway cruising.Check your owner’s manual for manufacturer recommendations, but don’t stretch intervals just to save money. Fresh oil costs much less than engine repairs. We help determine the right schedule based on your specific driving patterns and vehicle type.
Classic car restoration and maintenance is one of our specialties. We understand that older vehicles require different approaches than modern cars—from sourcing correct parts to understanding pre-computer systems.Many shops won’t touch anything older than 10-15 years because they lack experience or patience. We actually enjoy working on classics because each presents unique challenges requiring real mechanical skill, not just diagnostic computer work.Whether you need routine maintenance on a daily-driver classic or complete restoration of a barn find, we have the knowledge and tools. We source hard-to-find parts, rebuild components no longer available, and maintain authenticity that makes your classic special.
Yes, we stand behind our work with comprehensive warranties that provide real protection. Parts and labor are covered for different periods depending on repair type—typically 12 months or 12,000 miles for most services.Our warranty covers workmanship defects and premature part failure. If something we installed fails within the warranty period, we fix it at no additional charge. This includes both replacement parts and installation labor.We use quality parts from reputable suppliers, which often include manufacturer warranties. You’re protected by both our installation warranty and the part manufacturer’s guarantee. We handle all warranty claims directly, so you don’t deal with multiple companies if problems arise.
We focus on actually fixing problems instead of just treating symptoms. Too many shops throw parts at issues without proper diagnosis, wasting your money and not solving underlying problems.Our approach combines thorough diagnostic work with honest communication. We explain what we found, why it happened, and what it takes to fix it properly. You never get pressure to approve expensive repairs you don’t need or understand.We also offer services most shops can’t handle—custom work, performance upgrades, and classic car restoration. This means you build a long-term relationship with one shop that understands your vehicles and needs, instead of bouncing between different specialists for different problems.
