Archive for October 2020Muffler & Go Service Tip: Why Synthetic Oil Is Good For Your VehiclesPosted October 25, 2020 1:37 AMHello MI! Today's vehicle care topic is: Synthetic Oil vs. Petroleum Based Oil. Synthetic motor oil is a substitute for petroleum based oil. If you aren't currently using it, why not? Synthetic motor oil maximizes engine power and fuel economy. To see why, we'd need a microscope, so we'll have to settle for using our imaginations. The molecules of conventional motor oil are long hydrocarbon chains. Synthetic motor oil, on the other hand, has uniform, round molecules. Which is slipperier, a pile of pencils or a pile of marbles?

On Board Diagnostics for Fenton MotoristsPosted October 4, 2020 11:14 AMSome Fenton vehicle owners wonder why Muffler & Go and other Fenton auto repair shops charge a fee for vehicle diagnostics. Receiving a diagnostic charge at Muffler & Go for a tricky automotive problem shouldn't be a surprise. In the Fenton area, automotive diagnostics can cover quite a range. If you hear a noise in your vehicle brakes when you slow down in rush-hour traffic on a busy MI road, you pull off at the next off-ramp and take a quick visual check. That is usually enough to know what needs to be done. If you're having an intermittent problem with your vehicle engine, however, a Muffler & Go diagnosis may be much more involved. There's a common misconception among MI drivers that the trouble code tells the Muffler & Go technician exactly what's wrong. They wonder why there is a diagnostic charge because the scanner quickly gave the diagnosis. In reality, it is not that easy and straightforward. The computer monitors many sensors throughout the vehicle. When one of these sensors has a reading that's out of parameters, the computer will record a trouble code and turn on the Check Engine light. Some diagnoses are quick and easy. Others are more involved, time-consuming and difficult. Of course Muffler & Go wants to figure out what's wrong with your vehicle and get you back on the road as quickly as possible.

OUR REVIEWS
Randy Atwell, 04/23/2024Been bringing my cars here for around 20 years. They stay busy because they do good work. Brought in my Buick Verano to get a wheel bearing replaced. The mechanic not only replaced the bearing, but found another issue, that was in need of repair. Because they had done some major work on this car a few weeks earlier, they took care of both repairs and just charged for the wheel bearing replacement. They went above and beyond anything I expected.
