Engine Tune-Up

Spark Plug Replacement
If you pay attention and track of your vehicle’s gas mileage and see a decrease of 10% or more, you know it’s time to bring it in for tune-up. Most drivers also want a tune-up when they experience any type of driveability issue with their vehicle. Some of the most common driving performance issues to look out for are: diminished acceleration, hesitation, or even stalling when you press on the gas pedal. Check your vehicle’s driver manual or bring your car in to our auto body repair shop to find out the recommended interval for tune-ups and/or spark plug replacement for your specific make and model.

Transmission and Drivetrain

Transmission Service
Advanced Auto has been taking care of customers in Santa Cruz for the last 18 years; we have seen it all at our auto repair shop. Even those people who are not the most mechanically inclined or car savvy probably still know that transmission issues can be serious and are among the most expensive repairs required for your vehicle. This is because your transmission is an intricate system of gears that transfer mechanical power from your engine to your wheels, ultimately controlling the rate of speed you travel. Transmissions convert this power from the engine so that it can provide high torque at low speeds, also aiding in selecting appropriate gears based on varied driving conditions. These days more vehicle models are automatics than have a “stick shift” or clutch to engage the transmission manually. Automatic transmissions vehicles use a torque converter (between the engine and transmission) to manage the number of gears when driving. Supplying the power to regulate gear action is a challenging task, which is why it’s important for you to contact us, your transmission service experts whenever you are experiencing any issues.

Steering and Suspension

Suspension Service/Repair
The main function of your vehicle’s steering and suspension system is to allow the wheels to move separately of the car or truck, while keeping it “suspended” and stable. Any loosening, movement or uncontrolled motion in these systems can result in a deterioration of handling and accelerated tire wear. The car’s alignment is closely connected and related to the condition of the suspension and steering systems.

Heating and Cooling

Air Conditioning Service/Repair
We can handle anything from a simple A/C recharge to a complete overhaul of your system, even including evaporator and heater core replacements. Our experienced ASE-Certified auto technicians will pinpoint the problem accurately and fix it correctly. A/C repairs can be one of the most costly repairs on your car, so maintaining your air conditioning system is very important and can make the difference between having A/C that lasts for the life of your vehicle or having to pay an expensive A/C restoration bill.
Radiator Flush
Cooling system maintenance services include changing the coolant (also called a “radiator flush”), making sure there are no leaks, and examining or replacing any worn radiator hoses, belts, and radiator caps as needed. Advanced Auto recommends periodic flushes because coolant keeps the water pump lubricated and stops the cooling system from rusting. Another major purpose of coolant is to raise the boiling point of fluids inside the system to prevent boil overs. An additional benefit of replacing old coolant is that this can help keep unnecessary minerals from collecting and clogging small radiator passages
