I’ll tell you what can wait.

What customers say
The dealer quoted me a new CVT. Kurt changed the fluid and a sensor instead.
I drop the key in the box on my way to work. They text when it’s ready.

Questions
Will using you void my factory warranty?
No. Federal law lets you have maintenance done anywhere. We use parts that meet factory spec and email you every receipt.
Do you use dealer parts?
Your quote shows factory or aftermarket, with the price of each.
Can I wait for my car?
For oil changes and tire swaps, yes, about an hour. For longer jobs we give you a ride anywhere in town.
