If your vehicle has been running roughly or losing power, there may be a lack of pressure in one or more cylinders. To determine whether pressure is escaping from the engine, you need to have your the compression in the cylinders. Our expoert mechanics will measures the amount of pressure that the piston exerts on the fuel/air mixture before the spark plug fires the mixture.

If there isn’t enough pressure, it’s escaping through one of the valve openings (because the valve is improperly adjusted or worn), down past the rings on the piston or through a blown head gasket. It becomes a big job and should only be handled by a professional. Bring your vehicle to us and we’ll assess and see what needs to be done.

Take on Any Terrain – 4x4 Service You Can Rely On at Heritage Autopros & Tire Chinook

My Audi Q5 required a new battery after the 12-year old OEM battery was starting to show it's age. I purchased a good AGM battery and booked an appointment to have NAPA Heritage AutoPro install and code (program) the new battery to the vehicle's electrical system. The shop spent several hours using a few different scanners, but was unable to program the battery, due to incomplete markings on the new battery. They did everything possible to located the missing information and I greatly appreciate their awesome efforts! This was entirely an oversight by the battery manufacturer, and NOT Heritage AutoPro. I would highly recommend this shop for all your work. Thanks!

I’ve been bringing my Golf here for several years, and I can honestly say this is the most reliable repair shop I’ve ever dealt with. The team is knowledgeable, honest, and always takes the time to explain what needs to be done without pushing unnecessary repairs.
