Do newer cars still need tune-ups?

Less often than older ones, but spark plugs and filters still wear. Your owner's manual and the engine's condition tell us what's due.

How often should I get a tune-up?

It varies by vehicle. Many modern spark plugs last a long time, but check your manual or ask us.

Will a tune-up fix my check engine light?

Sometimes, if the cause is a worn ignition part. If the light is on, diagnostics may be the better first step.

How long does it take?

Usually the same day. We'll give you a time when you book.

Tune-Ups in Las Vegas

A tune-up gets your engine running smoothly and efficiently again. What it involves depends on your vehicle and its mileage, so we start by checking what your engine actually needs.
