Do I Need A Specialist For European Auto Repairs?

Do I Need A Specialist For European Auto Repairs?

While there is no legal or warranty requirement stating that you need to visit a specialist for your European auto repair, upkeep, and part replacements, your vehicle (and your wallet) will thank you for it!

Read on to learn 5 reasons why, or call (775) 284-9444 to speak directly with a European auto repair specialist in Reno, NV.

5 Reasons To Choose European Auto Repair Specialists

  1. European auto repairs often require special tools. Many European vehicles are made with different parts and standards than their American or Asian counterparts. This goes for just about everything, from camshaft timing tools to basic bolt heads. For example, VW uses a lot of triple square and metric hex head bolts, whereas newer Mercedes use Torx/E-Torx.If your auto repair shop does not have these specialty tools on-hand, your service will be delayed—or the technician might try to “make due” with what they have, and you will be left with stripped bolts, incomplete repairs, voided warranties, or worse.
  2. European vehicles require special parts. When it is time for a part replacement, the only way to keep your European vehicle running factory-fresh is to use genuine, OEM parts from European vehicle manufacturers. Unfortunately, not all shops carry, or even have access to, these specialty parts.But when you choose Automotion for your european auto repair, you’ve got nothing to worry about. We have been a Bosch-authorized European auto repair center since 1988, and we maintain a large inventory of genuine, OEM European parts year-round to reduce the risks of delivery delays and make it easy to compare different options in-house.
  3. European auto repairs require special skills. Even with the right tools and replacement parts, general repair shops might lack the skills and experience to guarantee great repairs.At Automotion, our team is Bosch-authorized, AAA-approved, and ASE-certified; we work with all European makes and models; and we offer a 24,000-mile / 24-month guarantee on all parts and labor. And if our certifications, service warranty, and decades of experience aren’t enough to give you peace of mind, check out some of our 200+ glowing Google reviews.
  4. European auto repair specialists provide accurate diagnostics. Not all vehicles use the standard OBD-II diagnostic system. European cars use the European On-Board Diagnostics (EOBD), which is similar but different. To get laser-accurate diagnoses and quick, cost-effective repairs, you have to find a shop with compatible diagnostic tools, and Automotion has what you need!
  5. European auto repair specialists protect your warranty coverage. If you want to maintain your warranty coverage and avoid hefty repair and part replacement costs, you need to follow the maintenance schedule stipulated by your European car manufacturer. Most general repair shops won’t know the difference, and these oversights could cost you your coverage. Choosing a european auto repair specialist ensures that all repair, maintenance, and part replacement services are completed according to the manufacturer’s timeline and specifications.
