- Your approval before extra work — you get the price before we do anything new.
- Photos of what we find — see the worn part, not just the bill.

Inside the shop
Real cars, real repairs, right here on McGuire Place.
What customers say
Check engine light on?
Look up your code, learn what it means — then let us confirm the real cause.
Dealers & fleets
Retail dealers send us their inventory for oil service, reconditioning and repairs.
Fast turnaround, clear estimates and a live online board where your team can check every car's status and approve extra work. Ask about a dealer account.
Questions we hear a lot
Do you only work on European cars?
European makes are our specialty, but we service most domestic and Asian vehicles too — oil changes, brakes, tires, diagnostics and more.
Is it safe to drive with the check engine light on?
A flashing light means a serious misfire — pull over when safe and avoid driving. A steady light is usually not an emergency, but get it checked soon so a small problem doesn't become an expensive one. Look up your code in our code library.
Will you do any work without asking me?
No. We diagnose, explain what we found and give you the price. Nothing extra is done without your approval.
Do you sell and install tires?
Yes — new tire sales, flat repair, mounting, balancing and rotation, including run-flat tires.
Do you work on Sprinter vans and fleet vehicles?
Yes. We service Mercedes-Benz Sprinter vans and work with dealers and fleets — see Dealers & fleets.
