Computer Diagnostics
Today's vehicles are primarily computer controlled and utilize sophisticated technology to operate properly. The use of this technology plays a significant part in the diagnosis of your vehicle's performance. When your vehicle is illuminating the "Check Engine" light or not running properly, often computer diagnostics are needed to determine what part is malfunctioning.
When a warning light is illuminated, this means the onboard computer system in your vehicle has detected a problem or service need with one or more of the many different systems it monitors and controls, such as your engine or transmission. Therefore, we recommend our computer diagnostic service to provide you with an accurate assessment of your vehicle's condition. Our computer diagnostics service utilizes state-of-the art diagnostic equipment, which is connected to your vehicle to view any computer trouble codes.
Our trained technicians utilize the same procedures the dealerships perform by retrieving this information directly from the vehicle's data stream to accurately pinpoint your system's failure or service needs. Once the data is retrieved from the trouble code, our technicians can provide a service or repair recommendation to return your vehicle to its Road Ready condition.
Air Conditioning
The air conditioning system in your vehicle is often taken for granted until a problem occurs. Like many automotive systems, the air conditioning system is very complex and requires a trained specialist to make any repairs or adjustments. If you are experiencing problems with your air conditioning, the source of the problem could be anything from your compressor to the evaporator core...or any of the various hoses and coils involved in the system. Bring your car to Milex/Mr. Transmission for our trained technicians to inspect and service your air conditioning system.
Our Air Conditioning Service includes
- Inspection of all visual A/C components for leaks
- Testing for proper freon
- Running a performance test on the A/C system
It is best to have your air conditioning system checked on a regular basis to help prevent any major repairs and to keep you cool and Road Ready.
Brakes
The brake system is one of the most important safety systems in your vehicle. Keeping up with brake repairs and maintenance is critical to your safety on the road.
The brake system is comprised of many components including brake pads, cylinders, drums and rotors. These components all endure wear and tear with miles driven and will need replacement and maintenance at some point. But if you are diligent with your brake system maintenance, you can hopefully prevent the need for major repairs. As part of Milex/Mr. Transmission's safety check and free brake inspection, we inspect your brake system for any needed maintenance or repairs. Maintenance may include flushing and filling of the brake hydraulic system, brake pad replacement, replacement of brake lines, rotors or drums.

Engine Maintenance
Many of today's automobiles are built to last their owners at least 200,000 miles...that is, if the vehicle is properly maintained. Proper maintenance goes beyond just regular oil changes and includes maintaining all of your fluids, replacing worn out parts and engine maintenance. The best way to preserve your engine is to get the vehicle fully inspected for items such as worn out spark plugs, needed adjustments in your timing belt or a low battery. Our recommendation for engine preventive maintenance is to bring your vehicle to Milex/Mr. Transmission for our expert tune-up service.
Being attentive to your engine maintenance is one of the most important ways to protect your vehicle and be sure it is kept in Road Ready condition.
Heating/Cooling
A common cause for vehicle breakdowns is a cooling system failure. To help prevent breakdowns and costly repairs, regular preventive maintenance on your cooling systems is a must. Engine coolant is very important in both the heating and cooling performance of your vehicle as it protects and supports the entire system. But over time the coolant's properties can break down and can become contaminated, causing clogging and overheating. Most vehicle manufacturers recommend changing the coolant on a regular basis and it should also be checked with every oil change service.
With a coolant service from Milex/Mr. Transmission, our technicians will thoroughly clean the cooling system and replace your engine coolant. This service will keep your car Road Ready by extending the life of your radiator and preventing rust and corrosion in your cooling system. This will maintain proper heating and cooling of your engine.
Steering and Suspension
Your vehicle's steering and suspension system help keep you safe by controlling the vehicle's ride and handling. Part of the steering and suspensions maintenance includes getting those systems checked regularly. As your vehicle ages, the parts within the steering and suspension wear out and may require replacement.
Suspension
It is important to have your suspension system working properly because that is what helps your vehicle react to bumps in the road. It works by absorbing the energy of the bumps and helps prevent damage to your vehicle's undercarriage and body. If your suspension components are damaged or worn out, your vehicle may not respond safely to flaws in the road. If you notice loss of control in your vehicle, let the experts at Milex/Mr. Transmission inspect your suspension system.
Steering
As we all know, the steering system helps us direct our vehicle in the direction that we want it to go. As with the suspension, your steering components should also be inspected regularly. You can also keep your steering system performing at its optimum level by maintaining the power steering fluid. The fluid is needed to help lubricate and transmit pressure in the power steering system. If you notice that your vehicle is pulling to a certain side or you notice noise or vibration when turning the steering wheel, you may need to replace your steering fluid or need a repair in the steering system.
Fuel System
One of the most common reasons for loss of fuel economy is a dirty fuel system. A clogged and dirty fuel system can also cause other major problems in your vehicle such as engine malfunction, hard starts and poor performance. Attending to your vehicle's fuel system with preventive maintenance can help prevent these failures.
Milex/Mr. Transmission offers a fuel system service that can clean and unclog accumulated carbon deposits and other fuel residue from the fuel injection system and other components. This service also includes replacing your fuel filter. A clean filter will improve fuel flow to the fuel pump and help extend its life. The fuel system service can increase fuel flow, improve airflow and enhance combustion. With these benefits your vehicle will be Road Ready with better fuel efficiency, reduced emissions and fewer driveability problems.
Oil Change
The most important part of preventive maintenance is keeping up with your regular engine oil changes. It does not take long for your engine oil to become contaminated with environmental elements such as dust, rust, and even metallic deposits. That is why Milex/Mr. Transmission, along with your vehicle's manufacturer, recommend regular engine oil and filter maintenance.
The engine oil supplies lubrication and cooling to essential components of your vehicle. Engine oil and filters can also keep your engine clean and running smoothly. Without regular maintenance, parts within your engine can be damaged by contaminated oil or worn down if the oil level is low. An engine oil and filter service from Milex/Mr. Transmission is a great low-cost way to provide your vehicle with preventive maintenance and keep it Road Ready.
Milex/Mr. Transmission Signature Engine Oil and Filter Service includes
- Installing new oil filter and replacing oil
