    If your car, truck or SUV is experiencing engine issues and you are concerned about having to purchase a new vehicle, our technicians at Flagstaff Transmission Specialists in Flagstaff have an answer that will save you money and help you maintain the value of your vehicle.

It is what we would do with our car, truck or SUV instead of trading it for a higher payment or a vehicle we didn't like as much as what we had!

    When you are having trouble with your car or truck starting and you open the hood up to take a peek to see this....you'll see what an overly corroded battery looks like. This happens naturally over time on vehicle battery terminals.  If you are like 99% of normal Flagstaff drivers, you don't check your oil or your battery so you don't keep an eye on the amount of corrosion that's building up on your car or truck battery.  Here at Flagstaff Transmission Specialists, we do and there are solvents that we can use here in the shop during a battery maintenance service that will help slow the corrosion process but nothing that can prevent it 100%. Way before it gets to this point, we will be suggesting you consider replacing the battery.

  • How is the Air Quality in Your Vehicle?

    When driving around town, your vehicle's engine needs clean air to burn the fuel – and it needs a lot.

Eventually, the filter gets completely full, and because the filter can only hold so much, dirt starts getting through. At Flagstaff Transmission Specialists in Flagstaff, we want to help you get the best air quality in your vehicle, but first, we want to explain the process of where this dirty air is going.
