We work hard to make our website, just like our shop, a resource you trust again and again to get the most from your driving experience. Don’t just visit us when something goes wrong, rely on us to keep things going right! Our Client Resources page is where we put tools and information to help you in any phase of vehicle ownership, so we hope you remember this page whenever you have an automotive issue.
If you’re a new client, we’re especially glad to see you here. The more you know about us, and our slightly unorthodox approach to auto care, the more valuable our services can be for you. We’ve created a section of our website called
“How To Make Our Shop Features Work For You”
that gives you the basics on some of our most commonly used and useful services. We think knowing these basics will give you a head start to getting every possible advantage from your time with us.
Here are the additional resources available right now. Remember, we plan to add more tools as they become available so check back often. Also, if you think of something that we should have that’s missing, please drop us a line!
