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.

Got the brakes diagnosed and replaced on my 1990 Mercedes. They did an excellent job diagnosing the brakes’ status, letting us know what was needed and then replaced as needed. They were timely, professional and didn’t try to ‘upsell’ us into more expensive work (a big, big PLUS!). We’ll be back.
Was stuck out of town in the snow, Kevin and the guys got me in and found my problem and got me back on the road the next day. Great place thank you thank you
Knowledgeable mechanics, skilled communicators.
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.
They were quick and reliable when I needed to get my tires fixed. Would definitely recommend them.
I’ve taken two of my old, abused, neglected cars to these guys and they have done a fantastic job. The price tag was $$$ but that was not really a surprise given the condition of the vehicles.
They are professional, friendly and very thorough. Communication was great, I always felt like I knew what the plan was. The most recent vehicle was from 1989 and they went above and beyond to find, even fabricate, parts.
Highly recommended.
The guys are the best! Great service.
