Signs That It's Time for Differential Service

Your vehicle’s differential is crucial for distributing power between wheels, ensuring smooth turns, and maximizing traction. Over time, differential fluid can degrade, leading to increased friction and potential damage.

Unusual whining or rumbling sounds, especially during turns, could indicate differential issues.

Puddles or signs of leaking fluid near the differential might signal a problem.

Following the manufacturer’s maintenance schedule, typically every 30,000 to 60,000 miles, is important for differential health.

This is my second time having them help me with my car as a single mom its super scary when your car brakes down and you have no clue what’s wrong I’ve been ripped off before , this shop and the guys working here are amazing , Kevin has excellent customer service always greats with a smile cares about getting your car fixed and running safely , as well as the gentleman working on my car I be live his name is Carl , I will never take my car anywhere else and will always recommend them to my friends and family as a awesome place to take your car for any work thank you guys very much

This is the only place I bring both of my cars to have work done, they are honest about what needs to be done and I also get a copy of the machine read out sent to my phone. The manager Kevin is knowledgeable has always taken care of any issue questions I may have and explains it so I understand unlike other place I tried in the past where they would talk down to me like I’m just another dumb female bothering them. I would recommend this place to anyone looking to have any kind of work done from a simple oil change to major work.

I used Art of Maintenance when my car for a diagnostic and repair. They fixed my car quickly and there were no surprises when the bill came. I would absolutely use them again.

Chris Walczak

I can’t say enough amazing things about these guys! I have brought my old s10 pickup to numerous places over the years and this is the ONLY place I will ever go to from here on out. Not only are James, Kevin and the entire team genuinely friendly and professional, they have fixed numerous issues that no one else had been able to diagnose. Not only that but they installed mud flaps and an old bulb for free since it only took them 20 mins, I mean what other shop cares about loyalty this much? Art of Maintenance is by far the best in town. Won’t go anywhere else!

Blake Smith

Everyone was incredibly professional and informative. My car wouldn’t start so and AAA reccomended this shop as it was close to my house. They were extremely helpful and quick with serving my car! I was able to get detailed diagnostics and the starter replaced within 24 hours of dropping off my car. Highly reccomend!

Gabrielle Dellabough-Miranda

The fix my brakes and did a great job

David Tebeau

Obtained a replacement wheel for a wheel that was stolen from one of our cars. Service was quick and friendly and provided accurate detailed estimate before the service was rendered. The replacement wheel was an exact match for the stolen one. The car was thirteen years old.

Paul Fox

I’ve been taking my Honda CRV to this place for the past couple years. Before that I would take it to the dealer, but got fed up when the dealer could not diagnose a starter issue (it was a tricky problem but Art of Maintenance was able to figure it out). Art of Maintenance has top notch mechanics. They are very customer service oriented, easy to talk to, and I feel have always given me good information, and taken good care of my car. I have called around on some of the bigger repairs to compare prices and they are always competitive. I’m super happy with this car repair place. I would recommend it to anyone.

Been going here for years. They’ve kept my old Lexus running like new!

Matt Dabrowiak

Always fast, courteous and professional. I’ve visited for tire repair several times over three years and have never had anything less than stellar service.
