Why Is My Car Displaying a Power Steering Warning?
What the customer reported
The vehicle owner noticed a 'service: power steering drive with care' notification when attempting to start the car.
What we found and did
The technician found issues related to the Engine Variable Valve Timing (VVT) solenoid which could affect the vehicle's performance. The team performed an initial assessment and proceeded to replace the Engine Variable Valve Timing solenoid using OEM parts. They ensured that all necessary gaskets were replaced and the components were properly adjusted to maintain optimal performance.
Result
After the repair, the power steering warning was resolved, and the vehicle was functioning properly.
Pro Tip
Regular oil changes are crucial for keeping the VVT system in good condition. Clean oil helps prevent premature solenoid failure, saving you from costly repairs.

Result

Why Is My Car Smoking from the Tail Pipe?
What the customer reported
The vehicle owner noticed smoke coming from the tail pipe and suspected it was using or burning oil.
What we found and did
The technician found an oil leak due to a faulty engine oil pressure switch and oil-soaked spark plugs from an overfilled crankcase. The team replaced the engine oil pressure switch and performed a tune-up, which included replacing the oil-soaked spark plugs. They also conducted a full synthetic oil change to vehicle specifications and ensured the crankcase was properly filled.
Result
After the repairs, the vehicle no longer emitted smoke from the tail pipe, and oil consumption returned to normal levels.
Pro Tip
If you notice smoke from your tail pipe, it might be due to an oil leak. Addressing it early can prevent further engine damage and costly repairs.

Why Is My Engine Running Rough Below 2,000 RPM?
What the customer reported
The vehicle owner noticed that the engine was running rough when the RPMs dropped below 2,000. They also reported a check engine light and were interested in a tune-up.
What we found and did
The technician found misfire codes and identified a faulty fuel injector and worn spark plugs as the cause of the rough engine performance. The team at our Haines City shop replaced the faulty fuel injector and installed new spark plugs to address the engine misfires. Additionally, they installed a new alternator and a Die Hard Gold battery to ensure reliable vehicle operation.
Result
After the repairs, the engine ran smoothly without any roughness, and the check engine light was resolved.
Pro Tip
If your engine runs rough at low RPMs, it might be time to check the fuel injectors and spark plugs. Addressing these components early can prevent more extensive engine damage and costly repairs.
What Haines City customers say about our engine repair work
Again Johnny's rewarded my trust in them. The car had developed a coolant leak, it was manageable but getting worse and would eventually totally fail at the worst possible time. They were able to get me in the afternoon I called and got a loaner. Next day I had my car back fixed. They have always worked with my weird schedule, and the work has always been excellent.

Honest, skilled mechanics and friendly service. I brought my 2007 Chevy Tahoe all the way from Miami to get a new remanufactured engine put in. My brother Angel referred this shop to me. And they did a great job, I already have 1,500 miles on the motor and my truck is running smooth. If I lived closer I would bring all my vehicles there for anything that had to do with a car. Ron, thank you and keep up the great work.

Engine Repair in Haines City: questions answered
Answered by our licensed technicians serving Haines City.
Can you tell me what is wrong over the phone?
We can usually tell you what is likely and what it is not, which helps you decide how urgent it is. What we will not do is name a part and a price sight unseen. Too many engine symptoms have four or five possible causes that only testing separates.
The light is on but the car drives fine. Do I have to fix it?
Not always, and we will tell you when it can wait. Some codes are emissions related and will only cost you at inspection time, while others mean the engine is running in a way that damages something else the longer you drive it. The point of diagnosing it is knowing which one you have.
What do I actually get to see?
We send a digital inspection to your phone with photos of what we found, so you are looking at your own engine instead of a line item on a page. If we tell you a gasket is weeping or a boot is split, you can see it yourself before you approve anything.
How does the diagnosis process work?
We talk through when the symptom happens, then run the testing that concern actually calls for. Before any of it starts, you will know what we are doing and you approve it. Diagnosis and repair are two separate decisions, and you are not committed to the second one by agreeing to the first.
Is the repair work covered by anything?
Yes. Repairs we perform carry a 36 month, 36,000 mile nationwide warranty, so it holds up whether you are home in Haines City or three states away. Our technicians are ASE certified, and we are happy to put the details of your coverage in writing with the estimate.
