How do you define
tune-up? Seems there is no set standard for what a tune-up is or what
you get for your money. As a consumer it is important to understand that
-
NOT
ALL TUNE-UPS ARE CREATED EQUAL!
|
|
Comparing
tune-up prices is like comparing apples and oranges. Instead,
compare tune-up services and the level of technicians providing the
service! |
A
first class tune-up includes a thorough diagnostic test by our qualified
ASE certified technicians.
The price
you pay will reflect the type of tune-up your vehicle is receiving.
Understanding the different types of tune-ups will go a long way
towards helping you appreciate the level of service that is provided. |
|
Primarily
there are 3 types of tune-ups:
- A Basic Tune-up
- A Major Tune-up
- A Performance Tune-up
Each one provides a different
level of service.
