Engine Repair & Overhaul — our work

Direct-injection continental car with carbon-caked intake valves — rough idle, hesitation on pull-away, and flat response despite no major fault codes.

Walnut media blasting cleared carbon from the intake valves and ports without opening the engine. Before/after valve condition documented; airflow and drivability checked before handover. Promo from $280 for most continental cars (T&Cs apply).

Complex engine-bay access for components buried behind ancillaries — the jobs that need patience, routing discipline, and clean reassembly.

Removed and refitted surrounding hardware as needed, protected adjacent finishes, and verified leaks and tensions before handback.

Coolant leak on a Mercedes-Benz W213 (E-Class) — faulty hose and radiator identified with visible coolant seepage. Left unchecked, coolant loss leads to overheating and potential head gasket damage, so catching this early was important.

Traced the leak to a deteriorated hose and a compromised radiator section. Replaced both with new components, pressure-tested the cooling system to confirm no further leaks, and restored coolant levels. System running at optimal temperature on test drive.

SUV brought in for under-bonnet inspection and engine-area work with safe access all around.

Vehicle raised on our two-post lift, hood opened for full engine bay access — typical setup for thorough checks, fluid work, and component access on luxury SUVs.

Owner reported unusual engine noise and wanted a thorough check before a long trip.

Full diagnostic scan, engine mount inspection, belt and pulley check, fluid levels verified, test drive completed.
