​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​Engine problems have a reputation for being expensive and time-consuming to fix. Fortunately, this isn't normally true. Our Chevy-trained technicians and our state-of-the-art technology can fix any possible problem. These are a few examples of issues that your Chevy dealership can fix. Engine Deposits Oil is essential for your engine, as it has the vital task of lubricating all the moving parts. Additives inside the oil are designed to prevent rust and to break down harmful engine deposits that can clog the engine and reduce its efficiency. As the oil ages, it becomes less effective and will contribute to engine troubles. Older oil is thicker and slower as it absorbs dirt and other debris from the engine. Its slow movement enables this debris to be easily transported through the engine, and it will create additional blockages instead of removing them. These blockages can affect the spark plugs, intake valves, and other components. We can remove these blockages by flushing your engine and replacing your oil. Engine Overheating This is potentially one of the most damaging situations for any vehicle. Your engine is in a very hot environment due to constant combustion and the movement of countless engine parts. A high temperature is important, as your engine operates most efficiently between 180 F and 230 F. The temperature needs to be controlled to prevent the heat from building up and damaging sensitive engine components. A leaking radiator, blockages in the cooling system, or a failed water pump are some of the causes of engine overheating. In all these cases, you'll see a sudden rise in your engine temperature. If this happens, it's important to pull over ASAP and allow your engine to cool. Contact us right away, and our expert technicians will investigate and repair the cause of the problem. Timing Chain Failure Older vehicles had timing belts, but your car has a metal timing chain. It functions identically to a timing belt but is more durable and can sustain higher temperatures. The chain runs through your engine and connects the camshaft at the top of the engine to the crankshaft at the bottom of the engine. The chain is carefully calibrated to synchronize the movements of components in the two engine sections. One of its most important functions is to ensure that the cylinders open and close at precise intervals, allowing combustion to take place efficiently. A chain can become worn or damaged over time, and it can slip out of its grooves. This can cause major engine damage. If the chain is damaged, you'll hear strange noises from the engine compartment. We can fix this issue by examining the chain and repairing or replacing it. Problems in an engine get worse and become more expensive to repair as time passes.
