Automotive News & Information - Westerville Automotive

Sluggish. Squealing. Unreliable. Vibrating. If any of these descriptors fit your vehicle’s recent behavior, it just might be trying to tell you something – like it’s time for a tune-up.

Today’s vehicles differ significantly from their decades-old brethren that required a tune-up every 10,000 or 20,000 miles. With newer vehicles, it’s increasingly common for manufacturer-recommended service intervals to stretch to 100,000 miles before certain maintenance items, such as replacing the spark plugs, should be completed.

If your car, truck or SUV is experiencing major engine issues, the technicians at Westerville Automotive in Westerville, OH have you covered. You hear the engine knocking when it decides to start? Is there smoke pouring from your truck’s exhaust pipe? Whether you’re burning oil, your engine is on it’s last leg or has simply given up altogether, we can help. And if you’re not sure what you need, we can help with that too.

I'm retired an I have 50 some yrs under my belt in the automotive field working on cars for customers, after I retired I had to take my vehicle to a professional garage to have things done that I couldn't do in my personal garage. I have taken both my vehicles to WESTERVILLE automotive to have the work done that I couldn't do safely in my garage on my property. It is so great to have technicians work on customers cars as if they were working on their own. They completed the work in reasonable time and the work is always to my satisfaction, great job guys, thanks again!
