FAQ

What engine services does Cochrane Automotive offer?

At Cochrane Automotive, we provide a full range of engine services, including check engine light diagnostics, driveability diagnostics, engine repair, replacement, rebuilds, spark plug replacement, and timing belt and chain replacements. Our goal is to keep your engine in peak condition for optimal performance and longevity.

How do I know if my vehicle’s engine needs service?

Common signs your engine may need service include a lit check engine light, unusual noises, decreased power, rough idling, or a noticeable drop in fuel efficiency. If you experience any of these symptoms, it’s best to schedule an inspection with our technicians to identify and address any issues.

What is involved in check engine light diagnostics?

Our check engine light diagnostic service involves using advanced diagnostic tools to read the trouble codes from your vehicle’s computer. Our technicians then pinpoint the issue, whether it’s related to emissions, the fuel system, or another component, and recommend the necessary repairs.

What are driveability diagnostics, and when are they needed?

Driveability diagnostics help identify and fix performance issues, such as rough idling, stalling, poor acceleration, or misfiring. If your vehicle is experiencing any of these symptoms, our technicians use specialized tools to determine the root cause and make the necessary adjustments or repairs.

When should I replace my vehicle’s spark plugs?

Spark plugs should generally be replaced every 30,000 to 100,000 miles, depending on your vehicle’s make, model, and recommended maintenance schedule. Worn spark plugs can lead to decreased fuel efficiency, rough idling, and engine misfires, so it’s important to replace them on time.

How do I know if my timing belt or chain needs replacement?

Timing belts typically need to be replaced every 60,000 to 100,000 miles, while timing chains usually last longer but may still require inspection. Signs of a worn timing belt or chain include ticking noises, misfires, or engine not starting. Replacing them on time is crucial to prevent serious engine damage.

What is the difference between engine repair, replacement, and rebuilds?

Engine repairs address specific issues or components, such as leaks or faulty parts. Engine replacement involves installing a new or used engine when the existing one is beyond repair. Engine rebuilds involve disassembling, inspecting, and replacing worn components to restore the engine’s functionality. Our technicians can recommend the best option based on the condition of your engine.

How often should I schedule engine maintenance?

Routine engine maintenance, such as oil changes, should be done every 3,000 to 7,000 miles, depending on your vehicle. Regular check-ups and tune-ups are recommended at least once a year to keep the engine running efficiently and to catch minor issues before they become costly repairs.
