West Bend Auto Repair

When we hear any kind of sound coming from a vehicle, it can be scary. A simple rattling sound can be many things on a vehicle. It can be something as simple as a loose heat shield which protects the under carriage of the vehicle. The sound can also be caused by damaged or worn-out suspension components. An exhaust system that is not secured or worn out can be causes of a rattling sound. The vehicle's exhaust pipe and muffler are very close to the road surface which allows damage from road debris. If you hear a rattling noise,  come visit us at Bob's Main Street Auto & Towing to put your mind at ease. We are here for all your repair needs; big or small!

                                                                   As the vehicle is sitting at an idle and starts to shake can be frightening. One of the most common issue that causes shaking at idle is loose engine mounts. Engine mounts are the connections between the engine and the vehicle. Other causes can be faulty fuel injectors, worn out spark plugs, or even a bad timing belt. The engine troubles may be corrected by a simple fuel system cleaning however some issues may require more of an extensive repair.  Call us today to schedule an appointment for us to inspect your vehicle and get it running in tip top shape. 

                                                              It's starting to get cooler which means it's time to start thinking about winter! There is few things to have checked over to make sure your vehicle is ready to take the cold weather. It is always important to make sure your engine oil is in tip top shape as that is the life of the engine. Tire pressure and tread depth is always important as that is the only contact your vehicle has with the road. Always make sure exterior lights and signals are in working order. Lastly, the coolant and brake fluid levels should be checked. Give us a call today to schedule your vehicle's fall check up
