Safety and Emissions Inspections Hurst TX

Texans are required to show proof of liability insurance and a photo ID, normally your driver’s license at the time of inspection. In order for us to begin a state inspection we need your current insurance card. You might be surprised how often the insurance card in your glove box is expired. Several times a day we have insurance cards faxed to us from agents for customers. We also have internet and printers if you can print from an online account. Having your current insurance card can also save you from getting an additional ticket if pulled over.

All gasoline vehicles, 2-24 years old registered in Texas must have an annual inspection and emissions test verifying they meet Texas safety and emissions standards. Diesel-powered vehicles and motorcycles are exempt, but still must have annual safety inspections.

Full Service Oil Change Hurst, TX

Your car is probably the second most expensive investment you will make; the first would be your home. The best way to protect this investment is routine oil changes. Most vehicle manufacturers recommend changing the oil every 3,000 miles or six months regardless of what type of driving you do. Here are some interesting things you may not know about engine oil:

Over time oil breaks down and becomes less effective as a lubricant, without a good lubricant, parts of the engine rub together and wear each other out.
Oil has additives neutralize acids get used up and stop being effective.

Tune ups

With the use of platinum tipped plugs and distributor less ignitions most newer vehicles only require tune ups every 100,000 miles. Typically a tune up consists of changing spark plugs and spark plug wires. Some older vehicles still have distributor less ignition that requires tune ups more often and consist of changing spark plugs, spark plug wires, distributor cap, and rotor.

Your engine running rough is the most obvious sign that your vehicle needs a tune up, but be careful the tune up is not always the answer. Come by, we can help.

Transmission Services

Servicing your automatic transmission, according to your manufacturer’s recommended schedule, is the best way to help maintain proper shifting and prolong the life of your transmission. Most transmission failures are related to overheating and fluid contamination. New transmission fluid cools properly, helping to maintain smooth shifting, and protects against excessive wear. Transmission fluid protects the transmission by capturing debris and deposits that occur during normal driving.

Fuel System

The three part fuel cleaning is a three step fuel cleaning process that removes deposits from the entire fuel and air intake system. Fuel system deposits interfere with proper operation of an engine that can lead to reduced fuel economy, impaired drivability, and increased emission levels. Deposits are a by-product of the engine’s internal combustion process and need to be removed regularly. The three part fuel cleaning removes deposits from the fuel and air intake system which helps restore lost horse power, eliminate rough idle, hesitation and knocking, reduce emissions caused by deposits, and restore efficiency and fuel economy.

Check Engine Light

If the check engine light is on there is an emission related issue with your vehicle. Your state inspection will not pass and an oil change will not make the check engine light disappear. We will scan the On Board Diagnostic (OBD) system and help you understand the cause of the problem. We do this free of charge so do not spend money to see if the light is a major problem. Many auto repairs are minor and not expensive.

Most state inspections take less than 30 minutes. Avoid the rush and have your inspection performed during the middle of the month, from the 13th through the 26th.

Within the month of the inspection sticker expiring, you must get the vehicle re-inspected. There is a five-day grace period at the beginning of the following month. If you forget to have your car inspected and you past the grace period, you’re at risk of getting pulled over and getting costly tickets and fines.

We test the emission controls of the vehicle by connecting our inspection machine to your vehicle’s onboard computer. This test informs us of any error codes or computer faults that may affect your vehicle emission system. Once we have the “green light” on all safety and emissions testing, we can issue the vehicle another one-year certificate sticker.

Texas requires that all problems must be fixed within a 15 day period and to have the inspection performed again to prevent any additional fees.

If your car has the “check engine” light, “service engine soon” light, or any other malfunction indicator lights on, it will immediately fail inspection. Because State law states that payment is due whether you pass or fail, we do everything we can to make sure your car meets regulatory standards, before we start your inspection and test.

Transmission Services in Hurst, TX

Typically we recommend flushing the transmission. This service is performed with the engine running so virtually all of the transmission fluid is replaced.

The drain and fill is the way to service manual transmissions, Continuous Velocity Transmissions (CVT), or higher mileage transmission. The drain plug is removed, and fluid is replaced. We catch the removed fluid in a measuring container to ensure accurate refilling. This service is not available for all automatic transmissions because some do not have drain plugs.

What About The Oil Filter?

Today’s oil filters on most engines are smaller to save weight, cost and space. The smaller filters should be fine for 3,000 mile oil change intervals but may run out of capacity long before a second oil change at 6,000 miles. Replacing the oil filter every time the oil is changed recommended.

An engine’s first defense against wear is the oil filter. The filter removes dirt, carbon and metal particles from the oil before they can damage your engine. If you wait too long to change the filter, there’s a danger that it might become plugged and bypass the filter allowing unfiltered oil into the engine. Dirt and particles make their way into the crankcase and then is pumped through the engine and accelerate wear.

Testimonials

Every person I have encountered at this place has always been pleasant. Cody helped me inflate my tires today and he had an extreme amount of patience getting the correct psi in each tire for me. Quick and honest service, I would recommend.

These guys are great ... they have been servicing my cars for years... They go above and beyond to diagnose and service my vehicles affordably and honestly. We have had services from complete AC rebuild to new battery wires & tons of oil changes. Never am I “up sold” anything I don’t need with my routine oil changes. It’s nice to have an auto shop I trust. *Locally owned and operated ;)
