What We Do on Hondas

Oil & Filter Changes

Most newer Hondas call for 0W-20 full synthetic. We follow Honda's maintenance minder system and reset it properly after service.

Learn More

Brake Service

Pads, rotors, calipers, fluid. Honda rear electric parking brakes require a scan tool to retract — we have it.

Learn More

Transmission Service

CVT fluid, automatic transmission fluid, manual transmission gear oil. Honda CVTs need fluid changes more often than most people realize.

Smog Check & Repair

STAR Certified station. Accord V6 catalytic converters, Civic EVAP issues — we see them regularly and fix them on-site.

Check Engine & Diagnostics

OEM Honda/Acura software. We go beyond generic code readers and access Honda-specific live data and system tests.

Timing Belt & Water Pump

Older Accord and Odyssey V6 engines use a timing belt. We replace belt, water pump, and tensioners together.

Suspension & Alignment

Struts, lower control arms, wheel bearings, alignment. Civic struts in particular wear predictably around 70-80k.

A/C Service

Recharge, leak test, compressor, condenser. Honda A/C compressors have a known failure rate on higher-mileage models.

FAQ

Honda Questions

My Honda has a CVT. Do you service those?

Yes. CVT fluid changes are something Honda underspecifies in the owner's manual — we recommend every 30k in normal driving, sooner if you do a lot of stop-and-go. Neglected CVT fluid is the most common reason CVTs fail early.

Can you work on Honda hybrids?

Yes. Insight, Accord Hybrid, CR-V Hybrid — we handle hybrid battery diagnostics and standard maintenance on all of them.

My check engine light came on. Can you tell me what's wrong before I commit to a repair?

That's exactly what we do. We diagnose first, explain what we found, and give you a quote. No obligation to proceed.

Do you do Honda key programming?

Yes. Smart keys, traditional key fobs, push-button start systems — we have OEM Honda programming software.

My Honda Odyssey sliding door is giving me trouble. Do you handle that?

Power sliding door issues are electrical/mechanical, so yes — we diagnose and repair those.
