We're here to help you!
630-369-9595The fuel pump in most modern gasoline powered cars is located in the gas tank. The gasoline is used to cool the pump during operation (the pump runs 24/7 while the engine is running). Keeping the tank at least half full (especially in hot climates) keeps the pump running cooler and extending it's life exponentially, saving you $6-800 in the long run!
Keeping a lot of heavy trinkets hanging from the car key chain will lead to early ignition lock failures. The newest cars use a push button to eliminate this failure.
When running numerous short errands plan your trip to the furthest destination first and work your way back. This gets and keeps the car fully warmed up....car engines really like that type of treatment.
Whenever experiencing a shimmy or vibration at highway speeds get it repaired. This may be no more involved than tire balancing. Left unchecked this will play havoc with the body integrity...literally disassembling your car over the long run.
Use the cruise control whenever possible (never in snowy/icy conditions) and watch your fuel economy increase. Every time your foot depresses that gas pedal you are throwing money away.
Accelerate smoothly from a standing start. Hard acceleration can cut the fuel economy in half in city traffic....not to mention the brake wear for the next red light.
Cars do not need to sit and idle for extended periods of time to warm up before being driven. By the time you get your seat belt on you are ready to go....accelerate slowly till the heater blows hot air to avoid hesitation and premature engine wear.
The air condition also runs in the winter time whenever the defroster is turned on. The AC does a very nice job clearing the inside of the windshield which has been fogged over from human breath. The heater takes much, much longer to do the same job.
On a icy/snowy days take care to clear the wipers properly before using them. Also make sure the windows are free before trying to move them....wiper transmissions and window regulators are costly repairs, not to mention the extreme inconvenience.
Early November is a good time to test your W/Wipers and washers. Also put the snow brush and a extra jug of washer fluid in the trunk.
Keep your trunk reasonably empty and tidy. Extra weight can really cut into the gas mileage.
Do "not" top off the gas tank and try to squeeze every last drop in there. Gasoline expands a great deal in the heat of the day. At best it may force it's way out onto the pavement, at worst it may damage the Evaporative Emissions system.
When a car overheats the best approach is to pull out of traffic and wait for the tow truck. When that is not possible, turn the heater to the max and open the windows. This usually helps quite a bit. If there is no heat from the heater, you are out of coolant and must wait for the tow truck.
Synthetic oil is truly amazing stuff. It will protect your engine significantly better than plain mineral oil, especially under extreme conditions. The biggest misconception is that synthetic oil can go forever without oil changes. The traveling salesman who covers 3-400 miles a day can go 15, 20 or more thousand miles per oil change. The taxi cabs and police cruisers can do equally well because the are most always at operating temperature. We regular people are not that lucky. Every cold start leaks a small amount of raw fuel down into the engine oil. This will eventually destroy the additives, causing premature engine wear and oil leaks.
Reviews and comments from our satisfied customers
Brought in my Mercedes GLA with an electrical problem that on surface looked like a change of battery issue. Bernie & team were thorough, discovered it was not the battery, and systematically investigated to find the problem. Honest, quick, and extremely reasonable price. This is the second time I've come here -- without a doubt this is where I'll keep bringing my car, for any minor or major issue.

Highly recommend and truly a diamond in the rough. Bernie is a wizard of knowledge and can easily explain issues and options, while addressing your concerns with fair and honest pricing. Take all my bmw's here for work and never an issue.

Automeister service and prices and knowledge are great. They fixed thing on my Audi 2009 Convertible at price much less than our local Audi dealer and quality was great. Also they found an item on my car associated with the headlights that the dealership never found and fixed it at a reasonable price. Highly recommend !

My son in law recommended I try Automeister for my car service needs and I have now experienced years of their expertise and good service. Bernie and his team have always done what was needed at the time which has resulted in extended life of our vehicles. If you want good reliable service at a fair price visit Automeister.

Do not let anyone work on your cars but Bernie. Honest, skilled and unbelievably accommodating. I finally got rid of my BMW so as a result Bernie needs business. He will make you and your car feel good. Guaranteed!

Only positive comments on the service and customer care we receive. Bernie and his crew have cared for our cars for close to 20 years (Benz, Mazda, VW). As a great testimonial, their expertise has kept my 2002 Benz with 366K miles in top running order! Prices and service are great.
