Advanced Auto Diagnostics is a full-service, preventative maintenance and mechanic repair shop in the Doral/Fontainebleau area, providing comprehensive car care services for your domestic or import vehicle to keep it running like new. We strive for excellence and strongly stand by our customer service. With today’s repairs and maintenance on BMW, Mercedes Benz, Land Rover, Mini Cooper, ETC. being so expensive you’ll find that by coming to us you not only get a reasonable cost but a high standard of qualified technicians working on your car. We conduct an extensive interview process to ensure our staff have the proper experience and skill to meet our standards of mechanic needs.
Experts recommend changing the oil and oil filter in your vehicle every 6 months or 6,000 miles, whichever is first. It’s an essential way to maximize engine protection. Oil changes at 10,000 miles are usually too long an interval for most common driving conditions. Unless using proper Synthetic oil as mandated by the vehicle manufacturer like Mercedes Benz, BMW, Mini Cooper and many more makes use. Even then you should have the oil changed every 6,000 Miles considering our hot temperatures in Miami and our idle time in traffic which does not reflect on your mile count.

One of our trained Air Conditioning specialists will inspect your car’s air conditioner, all AC lines, evaporator and compressor for leaks and wear. A/C not cooling we can help.

By keeping your car fluids at their proper levels, a vehicle is kept in good working order. Fluids are essential to the smooth operation of many of a car’s systems including the engine, brake system and transmission. Letting them drop below the fill line or, worse yet, dry out can be a recipe for disaster. While many car repairs require a skilled professional, maintaining the levels of essential car fluids is vital such as motor oil, brake fluid, automatic transmission fluid, power steering fluid and coolant. Have them checked or replaced at ADVANCED AUTO DIAGNOSTICS. Consider the following seven car fluids and their importance to a car.
Motor oil is the most important fluid in every car with an internal combustion engine. Oil lubricates the moving parts in a car engine’s crankcase, preventing the high heat and friction that results during engine operation from destroying the pistons, valves and other components. Without oil, a running engine will seize up in a short time, making the engine virtually unusable.
Brake fluid is by far the most important car fluid in terms of passenger safety. A car’s brake line system is a fully-sealed network that uses hydraulic pressure to control the car’s ability to stop. When a driver presses down on the brake pedal, the brake fluid compresses, transferring the hydraulic force to the pads and shoes that cause the friction necessary to stop the vehicle. If brake fluid leaks or if too much air gets into the brake line, a car’s ability to stop will be compromised.
Coolant is most commonly a 50/50 combination of water and specialized radiator coolant. In colder climates this ratio will lean more heavily towards coolant. Coolant is a heat transfer fluid. It cycles around a running engine, collecting heat as it does and returns it to the radiator. From there, it is transferred to the air. Without proper coolant levels, a car will quickly overheat and be inoperable.
Transmission fluid is reddish in hue and usually does not have to be checked by a car owner. Similar to motor oil, transmission fluid cools and lubricates the inner parts of the transmission, ensuring that the engagement of the car’s system of gears works without a hitch.
This fluid, pressurized by a small hydraulic pump powered by the engine, helps to make turning a car easier. When working at proper levels, power steering fluid increases the ability of the steering mechanism to direct the tires.
Cars with maintenance-free batteries don’t require checking the battery fluid. Other car batteries, however, must have their individual cells refilled from time to time. Fill up each cell to the bottom of the fill line with distilled water.
While this is a non-essential fluid in terms of a car’s ability to operate and stop, windshield wiper fluid provides a fast means of clearing the windshield of dust, bug residue and other particles while driving. The fluid is basically liquid soap and is very easy to maintain.
Simply by taking the time to bring your vehicle into ADVANCED AUTO DIAGNOSTICS periodically we will check these fluids, to ensure your car enjoys a healthy, safe level of operation. While some are more important than others, they all contribute to a sound automobile.
