What we do

Eight core services, every one warrantied for 3 years.

We focus on what we do well: diagnostics, brakes, maintenance, electrical, climate, tires, pre-purchase inspections, and hybrid & EV service. For anything outside our scope, we will tell you exactly where to go.

Engine diagnostics

Factory-grade scan tools, real road tests, and a written diagnosis you can take to any shop, before we touch a wrench.

$129 diagnostic

Typical time: 60 to 90 minutes

When a check-engine light comes on, most chain shops read the code and guess. We pull live data, run a road test with the scan tool connected, and write up exactly what we found, what we think is happening, and what it will cost to confirm. The diagnostic fee is credited back to the repair if you have us do the work.

What's included

  • OE-level scan with Snap-On, Autel, and OEM-specific tools
  • Live data captured during a 15-minute road test
  • Written diagnostic report with photos
  • Fee credited toward repair if performed here

Brakes

Pads, rotors, calipers, and brake fluid service using OE-quality parts, with a free brake inspection on every visit.

$329 per axle, most vehicles

Typical time: 2 to 3 hours

Brake jobs are where corner-cutting hurts the most. We use OE-quality pads (Akebono, Bosch, or factory) and machined or new rotors depending on thickness. Every brake service includes a fluid moisture test and a 12-month warranty on labor plus the standard nationwide parts warranty.

What's included

  • Free 27-point brake inspection
  • OE-quality pads and rotors, not economy parts
  • Brake fluid moisture test on every visit
  • 12-month labor warranty above the nationwide parts warranty

Scheduled maintenance

Factory-interval service that protects your warranty, with a digital inspection report and photos sent to your phone.

$89 oil & filter, $349 30k service

Typical time: 45 minutes to 2 hours

We follow your manufacturer's maintenance schedule, not a generic upsell list. Every visit includes a 56-point inspection with photos so you can see what we see. We will tell you what is urgent, what can wait, and what is fine for another year.

What's included

  • Manufacturer-recommended fluids and filters
  • 56-point digital inspection with photos
  • Tire rotation and pressure reset
  • Honest priority list, not a generic upsell sheet

Batteries & electrical

Starting, charging, and electrical diagnosis for everything from a dead battery to a parasitic draw on a modern hybrid.

$219 battery installed

Typical time: 30 minutes to half a day

Electrical problems are where guessing gets expensive. We test the battery, alternator, and starter under load, isolate parasitic draws with a current clamp, and trace wiring with proper diagrams. We do not replace parts hoping the problem goes away.

What's included

  • Load-tested battery, alternator, starter
  • Parasitic draw diagnosis on a current clamp
  • Wiring repair to OEM standards, not splices
  • Hybrid 12V auxiliary battery service

Heating & A/C

R-134a and R-1234yf recovery, evacuation, and recharge with leak detection that finds the real problem the first time.

$169 A/C performance check

Typical time: 1 to 4 hours

We do not blindly recharge a system that is leaking. Every A/C job starts with a dye and electronic leak inspection, a pressure test, and a written estimate before any parts are ordered. We service both R-134a and the newer R-1234yf systems in-house.

What's included

  • Electronic and UV dye leak detection
  • Full evacuation and OEM-spec recharge
  • R-134a and R-1234yf systems supported
  • Cabin filter inspection and replacement

Tires & alignment

Hunter Hawkeye Elite alignments, road-force tire balancing, and tire sales at internet pricing with installation included.

$129 alignment, tires from $129/ea installed

Typical time: 1 to 3 hours

We can match or beat Tire Rack pricing on most popular sizes, install on the same day, and finish with a four-wheel alignment on the Hunter Hawkeye Elite. Road-force balancing comes standard on every tire over $200 each.

What's included

  • Hunter Hawkeye Elite four-wheel alignment
  • Road-force balancing on premium tires
  • Tire sales at or below Tire Rack pricing
  • TPMS service kits and reset included

Pre-purchase inspection

A 95-point inspection with a written report and photos before you hand over money for a used car, anywhere in Boulder County.

$189

Typical time: Same day, 2 hour turnaround

We will pick up the vehicle from any Boulder County dealer or private seller, run a 95-point mechanical and cosmetic inspection, pull a scan report, and send you a full PDF with photos before you sign anything. Often the report saves buyers thousands.

What's included

  • 95-point inspection with PDF report
  • Scan tool history and fault codes
  • Compression and leak-down test on request
  • Free pickup within 10 miles

Hybrid & EV service

12V auxiliary service, brake systems, suspension, and cabin work on Prius, RAV4 Hybrid, Bolt, Leaf, Model 3 and Model Y.

$0 EV courtesy inspection

Typical time: Varies

Two of our technicians are HV-certified. We service hybrid and EV brakes, suspension, tires, alignments, 12V batteries, cabin filters, and accessory issues, often at half the dealer rate. We do not pretend to service high-voltage drive components those go to the dealer.

What's included

  • HV-certified hybrid and EV technicians
  • Brakes, suspension, alignment, tires, cabin
  • 12V auxiliary battery service
  • Loaner Tesla charging cable on site
