Computer Diagnostics

Computer Diagnostics

This computer's main function is to monitor and adjust engine and transmission operations. The computer receives input information from different sensors. The computer controls spark plugs, idle speed, and fuel injectors to get you the best possible car performance. Failure of the car computer will greatly affect the things it controls. To get the most out of your car's computer, have it evaluated regularly for updates and proper operation.

Brake Repair

Brake Repair

A brake is a mechanical device for slowing or stopping a vehicle (usually by means of friction). In short, a brake inhibits your car's motion. It lets you stop the car whenever and wherever you choose. Brakes are one of the most important parts of a motor vehicle. Without them, you would not be able to stop the car. If your vehicle's brakes are having issues, consider having them worked on. Brake experts at Express Auto Repair can work on your car's brakes to ensure you have a safe drive.

Air Conditioning

Air Conditioning

A comprehensive evaluation of your heating and A/C system includes examining the internal controls and blower; checking radiator coolant, hoses, pressure radiator cap, and thermostat; inspecting the compressor belt; a cooling system pressure test; measuring the interior vent air temperature; verifying the A/C pressure meets manufacturer specifications; and inspecting system and seals for leaks or various other damages. Stop by to have your A/C serviced, repaired, or replaced by experts.

Oil Change, Lube, and Filter

Oil Change, Lube, and Filter

To keep running smoothly, your car highly relies on oil, lube, and oil filters. Oil helps in lubricating, cooling, and cleaning the internal engine components. With time, motor oil becomes contaminated. Your car needs an oil, lube, and filter change every 3 months (or 3,000 miles). When it is time for a lube, oil, or filter change, take your vehicle to Express Auto Repair in San Bruno, CA.

Timing Belt

Timing Belt

A timing belt is a part of your car's internal combustion engine. The belt synchronizes the camshaft and the crankshaft rotation so that the engine valves open and close at the correct timings. Also, the belt prevents the piston from striking the valves in an interference engine. Most cars we drive now have timing belts instead of timing chains and gears. Although different manufacturers have their recommended mileage, you need to have your car's timing belt checked regularly.

Battery Services

Battery Services

The battery supplies electric energy which powers the ignition system, the starter motor, and the lights of a vehicle. If you need to jump-start your vehicle, your battery is failing. When a battery starts deteriorating, it can either be replaced or repaired - this will depend on the severity of the damage. We provide a convenient battery testing and replacement service to get you back on the road. Battery replacement, charging, installation, testing, and recycling - we handle it all.

Exhaust System

Exhaust System

In a motor vehicle, an exhaust system is a piping used to guide exhaust fumes away from the engine - usually to the rear of the vehicle. A properly functioning exhaust system not only sounds better, it is better - for you, your car, and the environment.

Transmission Services

Transmission Services

Repairing or replacing your transmission can be one of the most expensive repairs you may have to make on your vehicle. Maintaining your transmission according to your vehicle manufacturer’s recommendations, not only prolongs its life but it can prevent a costly repair or breakdown in the future. We provide service for automatic transmissions, clutches, four-wheel drive transmissions, front-wheel drive transmissions, and manual transmissions.

Shocks

Shocks

Shocks (or shock absorbers) are mechanical devices designed to smooth out rough roads. The devices do this by converting kinetic energy to another form of energy. Properly working shocks reduce the effect of traveling over rough ground, leading to improved ride quality and vehicle handling. When shocks develop problems, driving on poorly leveled roads becomes unpleasant, and your vehicle may sway when turning.

Fuel Injection

Fuel Injection

Fuel injection is a system for admitting fuel into an engine. Since 1990, fuel injectors have completely replaced carburetors as the primary means of getting gasoline into the engine. A fuel injector atomizes the fuel by forcibly pumping it through a small nozzle (under high pressure). Failure of the fuel injection system means poor performance and ultimately destroys the engine. Make sure your vehicle's fuel injection system is maintained properly.

Ignition Repair

Ignition Repair

An ignition system is a system for igniting (using an electric spark) a mixture of fuel and air in a gasoline engine. A properly working ignition system means a properly starting engine and high performance from your car. For all your ignition system maintenance and replacement needs, call or visit Express Auto Repair today.

Spark Plugs

Spark Plugs

A spark plug delivers an electric current to the combustion chamber from the ignition system. Spark plugs that haven't been changed for a long time can cause ignition problems. At Express Auto Repair, we have automotive experts who will check and replace your spark plugs.
