Tune Up Service

Tune Up Services
Why Choose Art of Maintenance for Tune Up Service?
Your engine relies on a number of components working together in perfect timing. Spark plugs, ignition components, filters, and other essential parts naturally wear with age, reducing performance and placing unnecessary strain on the engine. Left unaddressed, these small issues can lead to rough idling, sluggish acceleration, poor fuel economy, and more expensive repairs down the road.
Â
Art of Maintenance offers tune up service that begins with a careful evaluation of your vehicle’s condition so our technicians can determine exactly what your engine needs. Instead of replacing parts that still have life left in them, we focus on accurate inspections, quality workmanship, and recommendations based on your vehicle’s mileage, performance, and manufacturer guidelines. Our goal is to restore smooth operation while helping extend the life of your engine through thoughtful, preventative care.

Signs Your Vehicle May Need a Tune Up Service
If your vehicle isn’t performing like it used to, watch for these common indicators:
Decreased fuel efficiency
The vehicle exhibits decreased fuel efficiency, requiring more fuel than normal to travel the same distance under typical driving conditions. The reduction in fuel economy may be accompanied by diminished engine performance or inefficient engine operation, resulting in increased fuel consumption.
Difficulty starting the engine
The engine exhibits difficulty starting, requiring extended cranking or multiple attempts before it starts. The condition may occur intermittently or consistently and can be accompanied by rough initial operation once the engine starts.
Engine feels less responsive than normal
The engine feels less responsive than normal, with slower acceleration and reduced power during operation. Throttle response is delayed, and the engine takes longer than expected to react to input, particularly when accelerating or under load. Although the engine continues to run, its overall performance appears diminished.
Check engine light is illuminated
The check engine light is illuminated, indicating that the engine control system has detected a fault requiring diagnosis. While the vehicle may continue to operate, the warning light suggests a malfunction that could affect engine performance, emissions, or overall reliability.
Slow or hesitant acceleration
The vehicle exhibits slow or hesitant acceleration, with a noticeable delay in engine response when the accelerator pedal is applied. The engine does not produce power as expected, resulting in sluggish performance during normal driving, particularly when merging, passing, or accelerating from a stop.
Rough idling while stopped
The engine exhibits a rough or unstable idle while the vehicle is stopped, with noticeable vibrations or fluctuations in engine speed. The condition may occur at traffic lights or when the vehicle is in park, causing the engine to run unevenly despite no throttle input.
Loss of power during everyday driving
The vehicle experiences an intermittent loss of power during normal driving conditions, resulting in reduced acceleration and sluggish performance. The engine does not respond as expected to throttle input, making it difficult to maintain speed or accelerate smoothly, particularly when merging, climbing grades, or passing other vehicles.
Engine misfires or unusual vibrations
The engine experiences intermittent misfires and unusual vibrations during operation, resulting in rough running and reduced performance. The condition may be most noticeable at idle, during acceleration, or under load, with the engine exhibiting inconsistent power delivery and excessive vibration.

Clean fast shop with a nifty SMS-based order and invoice system that lets you check which services you do or don’t want and authorize them without a phone call. Was able to book a morning appointment in 3 biz days and get my oil change/AC recharge done in 2 hours, car purred like a happy kitten with a tuna treat afterwards.
Great place and great management!
Great service…work was done in a timely fashion and even gave me a ride home while my car was being worked on. Loved getting the vehicle inspection link….very thorough.
Quick and courteous service, knowledgable staff.
They’ve always done quality work on my car. That’s why I keep going back.
Everyone here was great, James went above and beyond. Had my car back in action way ahead of schedule – was refreshing to work with such a helpful auto shop! Thank you guys!
Kevin and the rest of the guys just replaced my brakes and rotors. They were fair, friendly, and fast. Thanks again for another job well done.
So I bought an old van (1997) to convert to a camper van and these folks have been great at helping me get this old thing road ready. I have more items to fix as my budget allows and this is where I plan on getting all the repairs done. James and Conner have been particularly nice to have on my side. Thanks guys.
Always professional and kind!!
I have been put through hell when I comes to mechanics working on my vehicles, but not at Art of Maintenance. They got my vehicle in and tested the issues quickly, did the work right and made sure I knew what was going on every step of the way. Every question I had they answered and made me feel like my car was in good hands. Now having my car back all of the issues have been fixed, and I have peace of mind. Car maintenance is not cheap but at least when you go to Art of Maintenance they make sure you get the best customer service with efficient and accurate work.
Thank you!!
My ignition switch was almost completely done for in my car. They quickly fixed it for me on short notice (a day and a half) and quoted me about $400 less than another shop in the area. Thank you!
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.
