Overall

I took my 3 cars there for about 3 years in December of 2011 they installed lower front ball joints on my ford Tarus did not last a year. inspected my Chevy truck said I needed front shocks leaking, charged me 65.00 for the part that cost 28.00 at pep boys, over 100 percent mark up on parts. I do not recommend this shop to any one, they talk a good game. Worked on my Ford brakes next day fluid leaked out all over the street. Took it in for oil change and rotate tires after 4 hours oil was changed tires never touched, after they called and said car was ready.

Timing Belt/Chain Replacement
Fuel Injection Service/Repair
Fuel injection is a system for admitting fuel into an engine. Since 1990, fuel injectors have completely replaced carburetors as the primary means of getting gasoline into the engine. A fuel injector atomizes the fuel by forcibly pumping it through a small nozzle (under high pressure). Failure of the fuel injection system means poor performance and ultimately destroys the engine. Make sure your vehicle's fuel injection system is maintained properly. For all your fuel injection maintenance and replacement needs, call 215-487-0122 or visit Jim's Auto Service today.

Transmission and Drivetrain

Transmission Service
A four-wheel (4x4) drive vehicle has differential gears, both front and rear axles, and a transfer case attached to the transmission. Four-wheel drive vehicles demand maintenance on the transfer case, front differentials, rear differentials, and transmission fluids. Visit us on 7563 Ridge Ave for service on your four-wheel drive transmission services.
Transmission Repair
From manual to automatic transmission repair, Jim's Auto Service in Philadelphia, PA 19128 knows how to fix the problem. Our knowledgeable auto experts will diagnose the situation and help you make a decision. Leave the dirty work to us!
Transmission Fluid Service
Although most manufacturers recommend a transmission flush every 30,000 miles or every two years, some symptoms may indicate that you need a transmission flush sooner. Some of the symptoms that indicate that your car needs a transmission flush sooner are: transmission grinding or strange noises, problems shifting gears, slipping gears, surging of the car, and delay in vehicle movement. Flushing the used fluid from the transmission washes away tiny particles of dirt, clutch material, and metal shavings. For all your transmission flush needs, call 215-487-0122 or visit Jim's Auto Service today - we are transmission experts.
Transmission Replacement
In motor vehicles, the transmission usually refers to the gear box, which uses gears and gear trains to transmit speed and torque from a rotating power source to another device. You can have your car's transmission replaced with a new, rebuilt, remanufactured, repaired or used transmission. For more information contact Jim's Auto Service in Philadelphia, PA. Our experienced service technicians can help you make the best decision for your vehicle and your wallet.
Clutch Service/Repair
There are clutches in both automatic and manual transmission cars, and different types of clutches. When shifting gears, the clutch engages and disengages from the flywheel and transfers the torque through the transmission. Clutches should help your vehicle start and shift gears smoothly. The clutch in your car receives a lot of wear and can eventually wear out. If your clutch begins slipping irregularly or is making noises that are raising suspicion, contact Jim's Auto Service to see if clutch replacement is necessary.
Differential Service/Repair
Axle Repair

Steering and Suspension

Suspension Service/Repair
Many newer cars are lubed-for-life, some still require this service. Replacement steering and suspension components require periodic lubrication.
Steering Service/Repair
Wheel alignment (or simply alignment) is standard car maintenance that involves adjusting the angles of the wheels so that they are set to the manufacturer's specifications. The main purpose is to let the suspension and the steering systems operate at their desired angles - this reduces tire wear. Alignment is a complicated process and not all mechanics get it right. To have experts handle your car's alignment, visit Jim's Auto Service.
Steering Fluid Service
Power steering fluid is the hydraulic fluid that transmits the power in a steering wheel. Servicing the power steering involves flushing out the old power steering fluid and adding fresh fluid. A power steering flush will definitely help prolong the life of the power steering components. Failure to have periodic power steering flushes results in important parts like the power steering pump, the seals, power steering rack, and the O-rings wearing out. To have a comprehensive power steering flush, call 215-487-0122 or visit Jim's Auto Service today.

Heating and Cooling

Air Conditioning Service/Repair
If your car's air conditioning system is not keeping you cool don't let the hot weather make you miserable. Get back to cruising in comfort. Bring your car or truck by Jim's Auto Service in Philadelphia and we'll get your AC working again. Call now at 215-487-0122 or stop by the shop at 7563 Ridge Ave, Philadelphia, PA, 19128
Radiator Service/Repair
Radiator Flush
A car's coolant system transfers excess heat from one part of the engine and finally loses it through the radiator fins. With time, the coolant becomes old and dirty. The old coolant will negatively impact the system's performance. To make sure the system is working effectively, consider having a regular coolant system flush. A coolant flush is basic maintenance for your car's cooling system. Call 215-487-0122 or visit Jim's Auto Service in Philadelphia, PA 19128 for all your coolant system flush and fill needs.
Air Filter Replacement
Air Conditioning Recharge
Freon gas becomes a liquid when pressurized inside your car's A/C system but returns to its gaseous state as it leaks out. Many drivers in Philadelphia are completely unaware that they are losing freon until the day when they turn on the car's AC and find only warm air blows out. Call 215-487-0122 and ask any of our auto repair specialists about recharging your car's AC. Stop by our store at 7563 Ridge Ave and we will show you the best AC recharging options for your car.

Tire Rotation
Tire rotation is the practice of moving the wheels and tires of an automobile from one position to another, to ensure even tire wear, which extends the useful life of a set of tires. Rotation is important because each tire on a car carries a different amount of weight, making them wear at different rates. By rotating them, you basically even out those differences. Your owner's manual will tell you how often to rotate your tires, but as a rule of thumb, it should be done every 5,000 to 8,000 miles.
Wheel Alignment
Avoid uneven tire wear and extend the life of your tires with a fast and affordable tire alignment at Jim's Auto Service in Philadelphia. Call us today at 215-487-0122 and schedule an appointment.
Tire Service
It is recommended that tires, including the spare, be periodically inspected by a tire service professional during routine maintenance intervals such as oil changes and tire rotations. We will inspect the tire tread and sidewalls for irregular tread wear, cracking, scrapes, bulges, cuts, snags, foreign objects or other damage resulting from use. We will remove any stones, glass, foreign objects, etc. embedded in the tread to prevent further damage. Even minor damage can lead to further injury and eventual tire failure. Tires with excessive cracking on the tread or sidewall(s) should be removed from service. This is typically caused by under inflation, over loading, improper storage, and/or improper long-term parking.
Tire Inspection

Brake Service
Brake Fluid Service
Brake fluid will absorb water from the air over time, causing the brake system to become less effective and the fluid to become corrosive, possibly damaging the system. It is important to perform a brake fluid flush regularly to ensure that your vehicle is using fresh fluid. Talk to our technicians at Jim's Auto Service about when it's time for a brake fluid flush.
