Once you have an idea of how the major components of your transmission operate, it’s time to bring them all together.

We want you to understand exactly what's going on with your car, truck or SUV. Here’s a rundown of how everything works together.

On modern vehicles, the PCV system (Positive Crankcase Ventilation System) is essential to ensuring your car or truck is ready to go when you are and remains a long-lasting, reliable vehicle.

How does it work, and what are those purposes?  Here at Super Shop Automotive in Merced, CA, we have those answers for you!

oil change

At Super Shop Automotive in Merced, we understand all too well the importance of changing your oil regularly. Three to five thousand miles sounds like a lot, but it doesn’t really take that long to rack them up.

Here are some reasons to pay attention to your oil changes, and help you better understand why oil changes are so important.

Your Ram, Chevy, or Ford diesel pickup is a big truck. All that weight takes some strong stopping power and takes its toll on your brake pads - especially if you ever pull a trailer or carry heavy loads. Whenever you need a brake job, Super Shop Automotive in Merced, CA has your back.

mechanic putting filter into car

Your car, truck, or SUV is equipped with various filters that keep the air going into your engine clean, the air you breathe in the vehicle, the fuel that supplies your engine, and the oil that keeps it going. How often should you have them replaced? It depends on the filter, the vehicle, and the environment. Here’s what you need to know, from Super Shop Automotive in Merced, CA.
