Frequently Asked Questions About DC Side Street Garage
Do I need an appointment for repairs or maintenance?
Yes, we require appointments for all repairs and maintenance services. This ensures that our technicians are available and fully prepared to address your vehicle’s needs in a timely manner. Give us a call to schedule, and we'll make sure your visit is smooth and efficient.
How often do I really need to have my oil changed?
Most vehicles benefit from an oil change every 3,000 to 5,000 miles, but this depends on factors like your car's make, model, and driving habits. Check your owner’s manual or consult with us for the best schedule to keep your engine in top shape.
Why do you have to change your motor oil on a regular basis?
Regular oil changes keep your engine lubricated, reducing friction and preventing overheating. Over time, oil degrades and gathers contaminants, which can damage your engine if not replaced regularly.
What types of vehicles do you service?
We service a variety of vehicles, from compact cars to larger trucks and SUVs. Our technicians are trained in both domestic and foreign makes, ensuring that whatever you drive, receives top-notch care.
What are the signs that my suspension may need repair?
Common signs of suspension issues include excessive bouncing, uneven tire wear, difficulty steering, and noises when going over bumps. If you notice any of these symptoms, it’s best to have your suspension checked to ensure your vehicle remains safe and comfortable to drive.
