What to Expect With Engine Services
1. Schedule Your Appointment
Whether scheduling online or over the phone be sure and let us know what you're experiencing so we can provide fast and accurate service advice.
2. Diagnostics and Inspections
Drop off your vehicle and the shop will get to work with inspections and diagnostics using the same equipment as the manufacturers to determine issues and next steps.
3. Digital Vehicle Inspection Report and Estimate
Following the diagnosis we will text you a digital vehicle inspection report, containing pictures and videos of our findings and recommendations.
4. Review and Approval
A service advisor will reach out to walk you through the findings and recommendations to determine how you would like to proceed, or you can approve work directly in your DVI.
5. Work Performed or Scheduled
Most work can be completed immediately, or scheduled based on parts and customer availability.
Frequently driving your car with little fuel can harm your engine over time because the gasoline at the bottom of your tank is usually the dirtiest. When this part is used for fuel, you run a higher risk of dirt reaching your fuel line and engine.

Pro Tip: The most frequent sign your engine needs attention is an oil leak. If you notice oil beneath your car, bring it in for prompt inspection and repair to avoid engine damage.
Commonly, oil leaks result from overdue maintenance, as seals may harden or dry out over time, losing their ability to prevent fluid loss. Prioritizing regular oil changes and inspections helps protect your engine’s longevity and performance.

Does a check engine light always mean my engine is bad?
No, a check engine light doesn’t always signal a major engine repair. Sometimes the issue is minor, such as a loose gas cap, a faulty O2 sensor, or a worn spark plug. If addressing these simple solutions doesn’t turn off the light, bring your vehicle to our Carrollton engine repair shop for a thorough checkup.

Always check this first, but for persistent issues, let our Carrollton team inspect your vehicle and provide honest, transparent feedback—so you’ll always know exactly what’s going on with your engine.
