Engine: What is it and why is it important?

The engine is the heart of your vehicle the component that converts fuel into the energy that makes your car move. When the engine isn’t working properly, performance decreases, fuel consumption increases, and the vehicle could leave you stranded at any moment. At Tires & Auto Duo Mechanics, we perform diagnostics, repairs, and engine replacements to restore your vehicle’s power, efficiency, and reliability every day.

Transmission: What is it and why is it important?

The transmission is the system that transfers power from the engine to the wheels and allows gear changes to be smooth and safe. Without a healthy transmission, your car may experience noises, difficulty shifting gears, vibrations, or even stop moving altogether. At our shop, we provide transmission repair and installation — whether used or new — always carried out with the precision and expertise that define us, ensuring reliable and long-lasting performance. Keeping your engine and transmission in good condition is essential for your vehicle’s safety, performance, and lifespan. With more than 45 years of experience, at Tires & Auto Duo Mechanics we treat your car as if it were our own.
