This BMW came for repair with broken valvetronic motor and failed DME.

A customer brought in his brand new 2024 Land Cruiser for its first oil change. Land Cruisers have been absent from the Canadian market since 1996, so, as car pros, we were quite interested in seeing how it is built this time around and we loved what we saw while it was hoisted!

We just had this 2010 Toyota Tundra in with possibly the foggiest headlights we have seen. After the restoration service this is how they turned out. This service will now be required every 10-12 months.

Our customer reported that this 2.5L naturally aspirated Boxster engine was losing coolant, overheating, steaming and loss of power. Our diagnostics showed that it had breached/blown head gaskets. We ended up removing and rebuilding the entire engine. Rebuilt the heads as well. Installed new multi layer steel head gaskets (the Subaru issue is the head gaskets are single ply composite gaskets and that is why they are so weak). We then installed a whole new clutch assembly (flywheel, clutch kit, bearing, fork etc.) as well as hydraulic system. We serviced the timing belt and the water pump as well as replacing the front and rear main/crankshaft seals. The vehicle is back on the road, running as good as new!

This customer came in with their 2013 Subaru BRZ due to a concern of when starting off in first gear it was creating a loud screeching and the clutch pedal would not fully return. We discovered the clutch to be heavily worn as well as the throw out bearing to have failed which was then being hung up by the clutch fork causing that high pitch squeal. We replaced the clutch assembly as well as the throw out bearing, retainer clip and clutch fork. We then machined the flywheel and reinstalled. The vehicle now drives as normal.

This is how a hybrid car battery looks like. This battery was removed from a 2007 Toyota Camry, which had over 425,000 kms!

Here is an intake valve carbon cleaning we performed on a 2012 Audi Q5 2.0T, which has 165,000 kms on it. This is a large cause of misfires. Customer was noticing loss of power, rough idling and misfiring. Carbon buildup is a result of incomplete fuel combustion. This can affect any engine that is direct injection or turbocharged.
