With fuel prices on the rise again, and exciting summer road trips coming up, we thought you could use a few tips to ensure you are saving money on your fuel costs! 1) Slow down and enjoy the ride! Drive smarter, not harder. Tailgating, weaving in and out of lanes and driving aggressively might make you feel like a race car driver, but it's not doing your fuel economy any favors (or your wallet, when the police hand you a speeding ticket). So, slow down and get to where you're going safely! 2) Keep your tires inflated! Low tire pressures increase your car's rolling resistance, making it work harder and burn more fuel. This also wears your tires prematurely, costing you big bucks when you have to replace them more frequently. So, make sure your tires are properly inflated, and your wallet will thank you.  3) Get rid of the junk in your trunk! Carrying extra weight around is like carrying arou ... read more

After LOTS of discussion, research and planning, we have decided to move the majority of our staff to a four day workweek starting today, April 3rd - Mike is the exception, you can still have fabulous conversations with him any weekday you like ;)    There are some important factors that contributed to this decision; ensuring our staff are able to maintain good health (physically and mentally), they have access to, and time scheduled for ongoing training, and having a shop culture that focusses on supporting our TEAM.    At Kinetic, our employees are the heart and soul of the business, so this change is intended to give them an additional day to spend with their loved ones, book personal appointments or just catch up on sleep. We've also scheduled some time in the workday for additional training, which is definitely needed to be able to successfully diag ... read more

We are super excited to share with you that we have started using some exciting new software! Yes, you read that correctly, we get excited about software programs!!   This program will help us keep track of the most common, recurring maintenance items for your vehicle. These items have time and mileage intervals that were decided by automotive professionals, like us, who have no affiliation with the vehicle manufacturers. Why is this important to us? Because, every day, we SEE the internal damage caused by the manufacturer's extended time and mileage intervals.    Every system that requires maintenance, especially the engine, transmission and drivetrain components, cost a significant amount of money to replace or overhaul. We don't want you to feel forced into purchasing a new vehicle, due to a catastrophic failure, when we can help you avoid it!  Our main goal is to help you save time, stress and money by ensuring your vehicle is ... read more

A healthy battery is a happy battery! By following these 5 tips, you can help ensure that your vehicle's battery is always ready to go when you are: 1 - Keep It Clean: A clean battery is a happy battery! Moisture can corrode your battery terminals and oils on the battery case can cause it to discharge. This leads to decreased performance and potentially even failure. Give your battery a quick wipe down with a damp cloth every now and then, and clean the terminals with baking soda and water to remove corrosion. 2 - Drive Your Car Regularly: Your car's battery receives a charge from the alternator while you drive, so if you're not using your car regularly, your battery will start to lose its charge (especially with all the computers in vehicles these days). Take your car out for a spin every now and then to keep your battery healthy and happy. If you don't have the need to drive your vehicle regularly, we can install a battery ... read more
