Frequently Asked Questions
Do you work on both personal and fleet diesel vehicles?
Yes. We service daily drivers, off-road vehicles, and light- to medium-duty fleet trucks. Our team builds maintenance programs that fit how each vehicle is used, keeping both personal and business vehicles dependable.
How often should I service my diesel engine?
Most diesels need oil changes every 5,000–7,500 miles and full inspections at least once a year. Vehicles that tow heavy loads, idle frequently, or navigate New Mexico’s mountain roads and desert heat may need shorter service intervals to prevent wear.
Can you repair diesel emissions systems like EGR or DPF?
Absolutely. We provide diagnostics, cleaning, and repairs for emissions systems such as EGR valves, DPF filters, and DEF systems. Our goal is to keep your vehicle road-legal while maintaining the power and reliability you expect.
