Whether we’re talking about your engine, transmission, differential, suspension, or otherwise, correct specifications are necessary to keep your car, truck, or SUV reliable, drivable, and running smoothly. From our team here at Dale and Ron's Auto Service Inc in Lawrence, KS, here’s what you need to know.

transmission

Manual transmissions are durable, reliable pieces of equipment. Still, sometimes problems arise. Dale and Ron's Auto Service Inc in Lawrence has the answer to a question that plagues many manual transmissions; why does my transmission pop out of gear?

Your Chevy, Ram or Ford pickup is equipped with an Electronic Control Unit, or ECU, that acts as the “brain” of your diesel truck. At Dale and Ron's Auto Service Inc in Lawrence, KS, we have the technology, technicians, and equipment necessary to reprogram and service even the most sophisticated electronic controls.

muffler system

The exhaust on your truck is an important series of components, that work together to insure smooth, reliable operation. At Dale and Ron's Auto Service Inc in Lawrence, KS, we also know that exhaust systems are especially susceptible to damage and rust; pipes, mufflers, and other parts are exposed to hazards on the road, and to the environment. This situation, combined with caustic emissions and extreme heat, create a perfect opportunity for problems to arise.

oil being poured into an  engine

At Dale and Ron's Auto Service Inc in Lawrence, KS, we know that over the past decade, depending on what type of car, truck, or SUV you drive, it may seem like oil changes have gotten more expensive, and there are more options from synthetic to standard 10w/30 oil.  What kind is best for your vehicle and is the higher price worth the cost? 

There may come a day when you go to shift your vehicle out of “Park”, and the shifter refuses to move. Perhaps you are already experiencing this issue intermittently, or currently have a vehicle stuck in park. While this is a serious inconvenience, it doesn’t necessarily indicate a serious problem; let Dale and Ron's Auto Service Inc in Lawrence, KS put your mind at ease.

view of your guages in the vehicle

At Dale and Ron's Auto Service Inc in Lawrence, KS, we know how annoying a faulty fuel gauge can be. Never knowing how much gas you have in your car, truck, or SUV, and constantly running the risk of stranding yourself on the road somewhere, takes its toll after a while. Luckily, we can fix that.

air filter being added the engine

Air filters are an important part of vehicle maintenance. What many people don’t realize is you actually have two filters; one for your engine and a cabin filter to filter the air coming into your car. Both of them function the same way but have entirely different purposes. They are often neglected, particularly the cabin filter, and yours may need to be changed right now. This guide, provided by Dale and Ron's Auto Service Inc in Lawrence, highlights the importance of filters, symptoms of an overused one, and how to maintain them.
