Every Mazda has its own weak spots. This is what we see most in our bays. CX-9 2007–2015 · 3.7L V6 • Internal water pump failure — coolant into the oil CX-7 2007–2012 · 2.3L turbo • Turbo failure • Timing chain and cam wear RX-8 2004–2011 • Hard starting and flooding • Low compression — apex seals • Ignition coils Mazda3 / Mazda6 2004–2013 • Rust on older models • Motor mount wear • Clutch wear CX-5 / Mazda3 SkyActiv, 2013 and newer • Generally durable • Keep up oil changes Keep it healthy What we tell Mazda owners • Change the CX-9 water pump with the timing chain • Change oil on time on turbo engines • Warm up and shut down an RX-8 properly • Fix motor mounts early Mazda questions we answer every week Straight answers from our techs Why is my Mazda CX-9 losing coolant? The 3.7L V6 in 2007–2015 CX-9s has an internal water pump driven by the timing chain. When it fails, coolant can leak into the oil and destroy the engine. Warning signs Coolant loss with no visible leak · Milky oil · Overheating What we do We test for internal leakage and, when needed, replace the water pump with the timing chain components. Colorado Springs: If your CX-9 is losing coolant with no puddle, stop and have it checked. Why is my CX-7 turbo failing? The 2.3L turbo in the CX-7 is known for turbo failures and timing chain wear, often made worse by long oil change intervals. Warning signs Loss of power · Blue smoke · Whistling · Check engine light What we do We diagnose the turbo and timing system and repair what's failing. Why won't my RX-8 start? RX-8 rotary engines can flood if shut off cold, and low compression from worn apex seals makes them hard to start. Warning signs Won't start warm or cold · Rough idle · Loss of power What we do We test compression and the ignition system to find the cause. Why does my Mazda vibrate at idle? A vibration at idle or a clunk on takeoff is often worn motor mounts on older Mazda3s and Mazda6s. Warning signs Vibration at idle · Clunk on takeoff What we do We inspect the mounts and replace the worn ones. Are newer SkyActiv Mazdas reliable? Generally yes. SkyActiv engines from 2013 on are durable when oil changes are kept up. What to watch Oil change intervals · Brake wear · Tire wear What we do We follow Mazda's maintenance schedule and inspect everything at each visit. Not sure what's wrong with your Mazda? Tell us what it's doing when you book. We diagnose before we repair, and you approve the work before we start.

Every Toyota has its own weak spots. This is what we see most in our bays. Camry 2007–2011 · 2.4L • Oil consumption on the 2.4L four-cylinder • Water pump leaks on the V6 RAV4 2006–2008 · 2.4L • Oil consumption on the 2.4L • Steering shaft noise Tacoma 2005–2015 • Frame rust — inspect it • Leaf spring and suspension wear Tundra 2007–2011 • Secondary air injection pump failure — limp mode • Brake wear on heavy trucks 4Runner / Highlander V6 models • Water pump leaks • Suspension wear Prius 2010–2015 • EGR cooler clogging and head gasket failure • Brake actuator faults Keep it healthy What we tell Toyota owners • Keep up the factory schedule • Check oil level between changes on the 2.4L • Inspect truck frames every year • Replace the coolant on time Toyota questions we answer every week Straight answers from our techs Why is my Toyota burning oil? Some 2007–2011 Camrys and 2006–2008 RAV4s with the 2.4L engine burn oil because the piston rings stick and stop sealing. Warning signs Adding oil between changes · Low oil light · Blue smoke What we do We run an oil consumption test to measure it before recommending a repair. Don't just keep adding oil — it can damage the catalytic converter. Why is my Tundra in limp mode with a check engine light? On 2007–2011 Tundras and Sequoias, a failed secondary air injection pump or valve is a common cause of limp mode, often after moisture gets in. Warning signs Limp mode · Check engine light · Reduced power What we do Colorado Springs: Wet spring snow is when these pumps tend to quit. We diagnose the pump and valves and replace the part that failed. Should I worry about rust on my Tacoma frame? Toyota Tacoma frames have a history of rust. Road salt and de-icers make a yearly frame inspection worth doing. What to check Scaling or flaking · Holes near the rear · Soft spots What we do We inspect the frame and tell you plainly what we see. Why is my Prius running rough or overheating? On many 2010–2015 Priuses, a clogged EGR cooler can lead to misfires and, if ignored, head gasket failure. Warning signs Rough running · Misfire · Coolant loss · Overheating What we do We clean or replace the EGR system and inspect for head gasket damage. We do mechanical work on hybrids — not hybrid batteries or high-voltage repairs. Why is my Toyota V6 leaking coolant? Toyota's 3.5L V6 in the Camry, Highlander, RAV4 and others is known for water pump leaks as it ages. Warning signs Pink crust near the pump · Low coolant · Sweet smell What we do We pressure-test the system and replace the water pump — often with the drive belt. Not sure what's wrong with your Toyota? Tell us what it's doing when you book. We diagnose before we repair, and you approve the work before we start.

Every generation has its own weak spots. This is what we see most in our bays. Ram 1500 2003–2008 • Front end wear — ball joints, tie rods • HEMI exhaust manifold bolt breakage • Rust on rocker panels and brake lines Ram 1500 2009–2018 • HEMI tick and manifold bolts • TIPM electrical failures, 2009–2012 • 8-speed transmission shudder, 2013–2018 • Pentastar oil cooler leaks Ram 2500 / 3500 gas HEMI V8 • Front end wear on heavy trucks • Exhaust manifold bolt breakage • Transmission cooler line leaks Dakota 2005–2011 • Rust at the rear wheel wells • Transmission failures • Power window regulators Ram 1500 EcoDiesel 2014–2019 · 3.0L V6 diesel • EGR cooler failures • DEF system issues • Oil cooler leaks • Timing chain wear Cummins diesel?

On many Ram HEMIs, a tick that's loudest on a cold start is a broken exhaust manifold bolt letting the manifold leak. Heat cycling snaps the bolts. A lifter problem can also tick, so it has to be diagnosed. Warning signs Tick on cold start · Exhaust smell · Tick fades as it warms up What we do We find the source, then extract the broken bolts and replace them properly — not just the ones that are easy to reach. Why won't my Ram's 4WD engage? On many Rams, 4WD that won't engage is a failed front axle actuator or transfer case encoder motor, not a failed transfer case. Warning signs 4WD light flashing · Won't shift into 4WD · Grinding when engaging What we do We scan the 4WD system, test the actuator and encoder motor, and service the transfer case while we're there. Colorado Springs: Find out before the first snow — not on the first snowy morning. Why is my 2009–2012 Ram 1500 having electrical problems? On 2009–2012 Ram 1500s, random electrical faults — no-starts, a fuel pump that won't run, horn or lights acting up — often trace to the TIPM (the main fuse and relay module). Common signs Intermittent no-start · Fuel pump not running · Horn or wipers acting up · Random warning lights What we do We test the circuits to confirm it's the TIPM before replacing anything, then program the replacement. Why does my Ram 1500 shudder at low speed? On 2013–2018 Ram 1500s with the 8-speed automatic, a shudder at low speeds is commonly the torque converter or transmission fluid condition. Common signs Shudder at 25–50 mph · Vibration like rumble strips · Harsh shifts What we do We scan the transmission, check the fluid, and service or repair the torque converter as needed. Why does my Ram clunk over bumps? Clunks over bumps on a Ram are usually worn ball joints, tie rods, control arm bushings or sway bar links — the front end carries a lot of weight. Warning signs Clunks over bumps · Wandering steering · Uneven tire wear · Vibration What we do We inspect every front-end joint and replace only what's worn, then align it. Why are the brake lines on my Ram rusting through? Road salt and de-icers corrode steel brake lines on older Rams until they leak — sometimes with little warning. Warning signs Soft brake pedal · Brake fluid leak · Brake warning light · Visible rust on lines What we do We inspect the lines, replace the corroded sections or full runs, and bleed the system. Colorado Springs: Colorado's winter road treatments are hard on steel lines. Have them checked at every oil change. Not sure what's wrong with your Ram? Tell us what it's doing when you book.

Altima / Rogue / Sentra CVT models • CVT judder, whine and hesitation • CVT fluid service overdue Frontier / Xterra / Pathfinder 2005–2010 • Radiator failure contaminating the transmission • 4.0L timing chain guide whine Titan / Armada 2004–2015 • Exhaust manifold cracks — ticking • Rear axle seal leaks Altima 2002–2006 · 2.5L • Oil consumption • Catalytic converter problems Murano / Maxima V6 models • CVT issues on later models • Motor mount wear Keep it healthy What we tell Nissan owners • Service CVT fluid on schedule • Check coolant for transmission fluid on older trucks • Don't ignore a whine from the engine • Fix exhaust ticks early Nissan questions we answer every week Straight answers from our techs Why does my Nissan CVT shudder or whine? Nissan's CVT in the Altima, Rogue, Sentra and others can judder, whine or hesitate as it wears — worn fluid makes it worse. Warning signs Shudder · Whine · Hesitation · Limp mode What we do We scan the CVT, check the fluid and for updates, and tell you whether it needs service or repair. Why is my Pathfinder or Frontier coolant pink and foamy? On 2005–2010 Frontiers, Xterras and Pathfinders, the radiator's internal transmission cooler can fail and mix coolant into the transmission — damaging it. Warning signs Pink, milky coolant · Slipping transmission · Shift problems What we do We test for cross-contamination and repair the radiator — and the transmission if it's been affected. Why does my 4.0L Nissan whine? On many 4.0L V6 Frontiers, Xterras and Pathfinders, a whine that rises with RPM is often worn timing chain guides. Warning signs Whine with RPM · Cam timing codes What we do We confirm it and replace the chains, guides and tensioners together. Why does my Titan tick when it's cold? A tick on a cold start on the Titan and Armada V8 is commonly a cracked exhaust manifold. Warning signs Tick on cold start · Exhaust smell What we do We find the crack and replace the manifold and hardware. How often should Nissan CVT fluid be changed? Nissan CVTs rely on clean fluid. Servicing it on schedule — and sooner with towing or heavy use — helps it last. Signs it's overdue Shudder · Delayed engagement What we do We service the CVT with the correct Nissan fluid.

Frequent regen requests on an NPR diesel usually mean a DPF loaded with soot or ash, a failing sensor, or an EGR problem feeding it extra soot. Stop-and-go delivery routes make it worse. Warning signs Regen light on often · Reduced power · DPF warning · Poor fuel economy What we do We diagnose the sensors and the system, clean the DPF or run a service regen when appropriate, and repair what failed. We repair emissions systems — we don't delete them. Colorado Springs: Short in-town routes never get the DPF hot enough. If it keeps asking, let it finish or bring it in. Why is my NPR losing power? On NPR diesels, power loss is often a sticking turbo — carbon on the variable vanes — a boost leak, or the truck protecting itself in reduced power mode because of an emissions fault. Warning signs Loss of power · Slow acceleration · Black smoke · Reduced power mode What we do We test boost and the turbo vanes, check for charge air leaks, and scan the aftertreatment system to find the real cause. Why is there a DEF warning on my 2013–2018 NPR? On 2013–2018 NPRs, DEF warnings often come from crystallized DEF clogging the doser or lines, a failing sensor, or an SCR catalyst problem. Warning signs DEF warning light · Speed limit countdown · White crust around the doser What we do We inspect and clean the DEF system, test the sensors, and repair the part that failed. Colorado Springs: Winter cold is hard on DEF systems. Fix a DEF warning before the truck limits itself. Why is my NPR-HD losing coolant under load? On NPR-HD diesels worked hard, coolant loss can mean a head gasket failing under heavy load, a cracked exhaust manifold, or a charge air cooler leak. Warning signs Coolant loss · Overheating when loaded · White smoke · Oil or coolant contamination What we do We pressure-test the cooling system and test for combustion gases before recommending a repair. Why won't my NPR's cab tilt? NPR cabs tilt forward for engine access. When the tilt cylinder leaks or fails, the cab won't lift or won't hold. Common signs Cab won't tilt · Cab drops · Fluid leak at the cylinder What we do We repair or replace the cab tilt cylinder so engine access is safe again. How often should NPR brakes be checked? NPR brakes do severe-duty work — heavy loads and constant stops — so calipers and rotors wear faster than on a pickup. We check them at every service. Warning signs Grinding · Pulling to one side · Longer stopping · Brake warning light What we do We inspect calipers, rotors, pads and hardware, and use severe-duty parts built for the load.

Every Mercedes-Benz has its own weak spots. This is what we see most in our bays. C-Class 2008–2014 • M272 V6 balance shaft wear on early models • Engine mount wear • 7G-Tronic conductor plate faults E-Class 2003–2016 • Airmatic air suspension • M272 balance shaft wear, 2005–2008 • Oil leaks ML / GL / GLE 2006–2019 • OM642 diesel oil cooler leaks • Airmatic air suspension • BlueTEC AdBlue heater faults S-Class Air suspension models • Airmatic struts and compressor • Electrical faults Sprinter vans 2007 and newer • AdBlue (DEF) and NOx sensor faults • EGR and glow plug problems • Oil leaks on the diesel 7G-Tronic Many models • Harsh or delayed shifts • Limp mode • Conductor plate faults Keep it healthy What we tell Mercedes owners • Keep up A and B services • Service the transmission • Fix a sagging corner early • Keep AdBlue topped off on diesels Mercedes-Benz questions we answer every week Straight answers from our techs Why is my Mercedes check engine light on with cam timing codes? On 2005–2008 Mercedes with the M272 V6, cam and crank correlation codes often point to a worn balance shaft or idler gear — a known problem on those early engines. Warning signs Check engine light · Cam correlation codes · Rattle · Rough running What we do We confirm the cause with a scan and inspection before recommending the repair. Why is my Mercedes sitting low on one corner? Mercedes Airmatic air suspension fails as struts leak, the compressor wears or the valve block sticks — common on E-Class, S-Class, ML and GL models. Warning signs One corner low overnight · Suspension warning · Compressor always running · Rough ride What we do We pressure-test the system and replace only the failing part. Fix it early — a leak wears out the compressor. Why is my Mercedes diesel leaking oil? On the OM642 V6 diesel in the ML, GL, E-Class and Sprinter, the oil cooler seals are a well-known leak point, dripping oil into the valley of the engine. Warning signs Burning oil smell · Oil under the engine · Low oil level What we do We confirm the source and replace the oil cooler seals — and inspect for anything else while it's apart. Why is there an AdBlue warning on my Mercedes or Sprinter? On BlueTEC diesels and Sprinter vans, AdBlue (DEF) warnings often come from a failed tank heater, pump, or NOx sensor — and the vehicle can count down to a no-start. Warning signs AdBlue warning · Starts remaining countdown · Check engine light What we do We diagnose the AdBlue system and sensors and repair the failed part. We repair emissions systems — we don't delete them. Colorado Springs: Cold Colorado nights are when AdBlue heaters fail. Don't ignore the countdown. Why does my Mercedes shift harshly? On many Mercedes with the 7G-Tronic automatic, harsh or delayed shifts and limp mode can come from old fluid or a failing conductor plate inside the transmission. Warning signs Harsh shifts · Delayed engagement · Limp mode · Transmission warning What we do We scan the transmission, service the fluid and filter, and diagnose the conductor plate before recommending more.

Every generation has its own weak spots. This is what we see most in our bays. Silverado 1500 1999–2006 • Instrument cluster gauges sticking • Intermediate steering shaft clunk • Fuel pump failures • 4WD encoder motor Silverado 1500 2007–2013 • AFM lifter failure • Torque converter shudder • Brake line corrosion • Heated seat failures Silverado 2500 / 3500 2011–2016 • CP4 fuel pump failures on the Duramax • DEF system issues • Front suspension wear Colorado 2004–2012 • Water pump failures • Timing chain wear • Transmission cooler line leaks Avalanche 2007–2013 • Midgate seal leaks • AFM issues • Rear window defroster failure Duramax diesel?

Many GM V8s use Active Fuel Management (AFM, also called DOD) to shut off cylinders for fuel economy. The special lifters it uses can fail, causing a tick, a misfire and a bent or worn camshaft if it's ignored. Warning signs Ticking or tapping · Misfire · Check engine light · Rough running What we do We replace the failed lifters and, if you want it gone for good, do the permanent fix: non-AFM hardware plus a PCM recalibration so the computer matches. AFM is a fuel-economy system, not emissions equipment. Colorado Springs: A lifter tick that gets worse on cold mornings needs attention before it takes the camshaft. Why are the gauges on my Silverado stuck or wrong? On 1999–2006 Silverados, gauges that stick, read wrong or sweep erratically are almost always failed stepper motors inside the instrument cluster. Common signs Speedometer stuck · Fuel gauge wrong · Gauges sweeping · Needles dead What we do We repair the cluster with new stepper motors instead of replacing the whole unit. Why does my Silverado shudder at highway speed? On many 2007-and-newer Silverados, a shudder like driving over rumble strips — often around 25–50 mph — is torque converter shudder, frequently tied to transmission fluid condition. Warning signs Shudder on light throttle · Rumble-strip feeling · Vibration when cruising What we do We scan the transmission, check the fluid, and service it with the correct fluid — or repair the converter if it's gone too far. Why does my Chevy truck clunk when I turn the wheel? On 1999–2006 Silverados, a clunk you can feel through the steering wheel at low speed is usually the intermediate steering shaft. Warning signs Clunk when turning · Clunk over bumps · Felt through the wheel What we do We confirm it's the shaft — not a ball joint or tie rod — and replace or service it. Why won't my Chevy truck shift into 4WD? On many Chevy trucks, 4WD that won't engage is a failed transfer case encoder motor, not a failed transfer case. Warning signs 4WD light flashing · Won't shift into 4WD · Service 4WD message What we do We scan the 4WD system, test the encoder motor and actuator, and service the transfer case. Colorado Springs: Find out before the first snow — not on the first snowy morning. Why are my Chevy truck's brake lines rusting? Steel brake lines on many Chevy trucks corrode from road salt and de-icers until they leak — sometimes with little warning. Warning signs Soft brake pedal · Brake fluid leak · Brake warning light · Visible rust What we do We inspect the lines, replace the corroded sections or full runs, and bleed the system.

On many 2008-and-newer Accords and CR-Vs with the 2.4L, a brief grinding rattle on a cold start is the VTC actuator on the intake camshaft. Warning signs Rattle on cold start · Lasts a second or two What we do We confirm it and replace the VTC actuator. Why does my Honda V6 misfire and use oil? Many Pilots, Odysseys and Accords with VCM (cylinder shutoff) can foul spark plugs and use oil on the cylinders that shut off. Warning signs Misfire · Oil consumption · Vibration · Check engine light What we do We diagnose the misfire and oil use and repair the cause — plugs, rings or the VCM system. Why does my CR-V oil smell like gas? Some 2017–2018 CR-Vs with the 1.5L turbo can get fuel in the oil, especially in cold weather and on short trips. Warning signs Rising oil level · Fuel smell on the dipstick · Rough idle when cold What we do We check the oil and for software updates, and change the oil and any updated parts as needed. Colorado Springs: Cold Colorado mornings and short trips make oil dilution more likely. When does my Honda V6 need a timing belt? Honda V6 engines use a timing belt. Most call for replacement around every 7 years or 105,000 miles — earlier with heavy use. Why it matters Belt age · Mileage · Water pump wear What we do We replace the belt, water pump and tensioner together. Why is my Honda A/C blowing warm? Honda A/C problems are commonly a failed compressor clutch, a leaking condenser, or a failed compressor. Warning signs Warm air · A/C cycling on and off · Noise from the compressor What we do We leak-test and diagnose the system and repair the failed part. Not sure what's wrong with your Honda?

Fiat's MultiAir engines use an oil-driven actuator (often called the brick) to control the intake valves. When it fails, the engine misfires or runs rough — and dirty or wrong oil makes it worse. Warning signs Misfire · Rough idle · Check engine light · Loss of power What we do We confirm it with a scan and test, then replace the MultiAir actuator. What oil does a Fiat MultiAir engine need? MultiAir engines are sensitive to oil quality because the oil runs the valve actuator. Using the specified oil and changing it on time protects that system. Why it matters Protects the MultiAir unit · Prevents misfires What we do We use the oil Fiat specifies and reset the service reminder. Why does my Fiat 500L hesitate from a stop? Early 500L models with the dual-clutch transmission are known for hesitation and jerky low-speed shifts. Warning signs Hesitation from a stop · Jerky shifts · Transmission warning What we do We scan the transmission, check for software updates, and diagnose the clutch system. Why does my Fiat 500X shift harshly? The 9-speed automatic in the 500X can shift harshly or hunt for gears — often improved with software updates and fluid service. Warning signs Harsh shifts · Gear hunting · Delayed engagement What we do We scan it, check for updates and fluid condition, and repair what's needed. Why is my Fiat clutch slipping? A clutch that slips, smells hot or engages high in the pedal is worn — common on manual 500s and Abarths. Warning signs Revs rise without speed · Burning smell · High engagement point What we do We inspect the clutch and replace the clutch, pressure plate and release bearing together.

Many 2011–2019 Kias with the 2.0T and 2.4L Theta II engines can develop rod-bearing knock that leads to engine failure. Many are covered by recalls or extended warranties. Warning signs Knocking that rises with RPM · Oil light · Stalling · Loss of power What we do We diagnose it and check your VIN for recalls or extended coverage before anything else. Colorado Springs: Stop driving an engine that knocks — continuing can seize it. Why is my Kia using oil? Some Kia GDI engines use oil between changes, which can starve the engine if the level drops too low. Warning signs Low oil between changes · Oil light · Blue smoke What we do We run an oil consumption test and recommend the right repair. What is carbon buildup on a Kia GDI engine? Direct-injection engines don't wash the intake valves with fuel, so carbon builds up over time and causes rough running. Warning signs Rough idle · Cold-start misfire · Lost power What we do We inspect first and clean the valves only when carbon is actually affecting how it runs. Why is my Kia Soul losing power? Power loss on a Soul can be misfires, a failing catalytic converter, or engine wear from low oil. Warning signs Loss of power · Misfire · Check engine light What we do We scan it and test to find the real cause. Does Westco do Kia recall and warranty checks?
