We’re in the heart of Clearwater at 1331 Cleveland St, Clearwater, FL 33755. Click on the address for easy directions. We make car repair nearby easy & convenient.

Only if we have a free technician, which is not often. We do our best to keep our technicians busy and prefer to work by appointment as we have already committed technician hours to appointment customers. The best way to ensure your car is serviced as quickly as possible is to schedule an online appointment.

We believe your cheapest insurance for maintaining engine longevity is the quality of the oil and filter used. For this reason, we recommend oil changes every 5,000 miles or 5 months – whichever comes first. For our customers that are doing less than 5,000 miles a year, call us to determine if your driving habits justify an oil change more than once a year. It is not only important to ensure the health of your engine, but also to verify there are no safety concerns developing.

Call us so we can discuss the issue. That’s why we’re Clearwater’s car repair nearby favorite! In most cases, if the engine is not running noticeably different and the check engine light is not flashing, it may be okay to operate your vehicle for the short drive to the shop so we can diagnose the issue. 

We always aim to look at a vehicle within 24 hours of being dropped off. The best plan is to book an appointment so we can have technician hours scheduled to work on your car.

We have a convenient night drop box for our customers that cannot make it during business hours. At our front door there is a key drop box. Please park your car in our lot, lock the door and drop the keys in our drop box. We will collect your keys and information in the morning and get the ball rolling on diagnosis.

Our diagnostic charge is one hour of time. Most vehicles needing diagnosis will be at this level. During this time, our mechanics use factory scan tools to read any codes stored in the vehicle and perform a variety of tests to ensure the remedy is correct. Many places can “read codes” but fewer places have the expertise to correctly identify the cause of the code.

Often, the triggered code does not reveal the full answer to your car’s issue. There are some instances in which additional time will be required, but we make sure you are aware of that prior to completing the diagnosis. Not every vehicle requires a diagnostic charge though. Please call us to describe what you’re experiencing with your car or truck so we can better advise.

We recommend the steps below to manage car repair investments in your vehicle. 

  • Follow the manufacturer’s recommended maintenance schedule to prevent costly repairs down the road
  • Conduct regular checks on your vehicle’s primary systems, such as brakes, tires, and fluids, to catch potential issues early
  • Maintain detailed records of all repairs and maintenance done, facilitating better service and warranty claims
  • Compare prices from different auto repair shops and seek recommendations to find reliable, budget-friendly options. Informed customers are our most loyal customers
