Auto And Fleet Repair

read moreMcKinney Auto Service & Transmission has been providing quality car care in Indianapolis, Indiana, since 1969. In the year 2009, R&R Auto purchased and merged with McKinney Transmission to transform a well-known transmission specialty shop to a full-service auto repair facility. For years we were known as R&R Auto & McKinney Transmission but have now changed our name to McKinney Auto and Transmission to fully reflect our capacity as more than just a transmission shop. You can trust us with anything from preventive maintenance to brake jobs to transmissions-our bread and butter from the 1950s to 2009.

When you start your vehicle's air conditioning system, the compressor works by putting the refrigerant under pressure, sending it to the condensing coils, which are generally in front of your vehicle's radiator. The condenser expels hot air to outside the car, cooling the air within the vehicle. When this happens, the refrigerant is cooled, and it changes form a gas to a liquid, which then passes through the expansion valve and to the evaporator.

By replacing the old transmission fluid, the expert team at McKinney Auto Service & Transmission essentially gives your vehicle's transmission new life. The new fluid restores your clutch's holding power. This reduces slip and heat production. Additionally, flushing the old fluid gets rid of small bits of clutch material and metal shavings, which can damage your transmission by clogging passages and wedging themselves between moving parts.

Inspecting your brakes twice a year for wear and damage can protect you and your passengers. Additionally, it will also help save you money by catching any damage before it becomes too costly. The master cylinder, the heart of the vehicle's braking system, holds the brake fluid when it is not being delivered to the brakes through the brake lines.

read moreThink of it this way: research indicates that the average vehicle is driven about 12,000 miles per year. A car with a toe angle misadjustment of 0.34 degrees (only 0.17 inches) out of specification will drag the tires sideways for more than 68 miles by the end of the year! Follow the vehicle manufacturer's recommendation noted in your owner's manual. As a general rule, have your wheel alignment checked every 10,000 miles or at least once a year.
