There are a lot of people who perhaps didn’t even know that mobile mechanics were a thing. For those of you who fit that description, your next question is probably, “Ok, why is a mobile mechanic better than a auto shop?” A valid question.

1. First, there’s an obvious convenience factor. No more dropping your car off and trying to kill an hour, two or maybe more while they work on your car. We come to you. Right to your driveway, apartment, or where ever it is your car is. So relax, catch up on some TV and leave the work to us!
2. Then there’s price. Without the overhead of a shop and other expenses, we’re able to keep our prices extremely low. When you come to Rolling Auto, you’re paying for the repair, not the roof. Many of the most common problems affecting cars could be repaired by those with some mechanic know how and spare time, but we know not everyone has that luxury, and that’s where we come in.
3. Quality.  With Rolling Auto, there is no “big box store” mentality. Rolling Auto is like your handy friend you call when you need help hanging some shelves, unloading a truck, or, in this case, changing your oil, istalling new brake pads, or replacing a bad fuel pump.

We can help with nearly any auto repair that you would go to a shop for any pay much more to have done. The next time you need auto repair work in Venice, Englewood, North Osprey, or in the area, give us a call!

If you were ask ask a survivalist, or just watch Man vs Wild, you’d come to find that one of the most important things to maintain in a survival situation is your feet. Well, driving your car to the grocery store may not feel like a life or death situation, but your tires are like the feet of your car. If you don’t maintain them properly, you can find yourself in a sticky spot pretty quickly.
 
After proper inflation, the next thing you want to make sure to monitor is the tread on your tires. a common trick to determine how much life is left in your tread is to take a penny and insert it in to the tread with Abe turned upside down. If you can still see the top of his head above the tread, it’s a good indicator that it’s time to replace the tire.
 
Just being cognizant of a few things should help you avoid any catastrophic failures at inopportune times. For just a couple of bucks you can buy a tire pressure gauge that should give you a fairly good idea of when your tires could use some air. Tires that are inflated to the proper PSI provide better fuel efficiency and last longer, so it’s worth it to keep an eye out for any under-inflated wheels.
 
Replacing old, worn out tires is a good idea, but to get the most life out of them, try rotating them every 8-10 thousand miles. This will ensure even wear, and you won’t end up replacing a whole set of tires just because one has worn all the way down before the others.

For those who are looking to buy a used car, there are a lot of things to think about, and no two used cars are ever alike. But if there are three things at the top of a prospective buyers list, it wouldn’t be unlikely for cheap, reliable, and fuel efficient to all end up somewhere near the top.
In a recent article, 5 great used car choices were discussed. There’s a little something for everyone: Miadas for fans of a coupe, all the way up to bigger fare like a Pontiac Vibe.
When buying from an owner, it always pays to do your homework to make sure you’re getting the best deal possible, or at least a fair one.
It’s also never a bad idea to request a used car inspection from the seller if they haven’t offered one already, just to hear from a reliable third party whether or not the car is in good shape.

Emissions problems are one of the most common reasons cars will throw an error code and trigger a “check engine light” or other warning light. While an emission leak or bad sensor may not feel like a pressing matter, emissions problems like those will tend to pile up and compound.
Your car can actually be robbed of a lot of performance and fuel efficiency due to problems stemming from emissions problems. Taking care of emissions issues as they pop up and not waiting for them to get worse is the smart way to deal with maintenance. I don’t think ever in the history of auto repair has a problem been fixed by successfully ignoring it for long enough.
Whatever kind of emissions repair you need, be it an O2 sensor, EGR Valve, fuel injectors, or something else entirely, give us a call at Rolling Auto. We’ll bring the auto shop to you. It couldn’t be any easier to get auto repair in Venice!

Your engine is a very powerful mechanical device, but it is still very sensitive to alterations in the timing of its components. The timing belt is what keeps everything moving at the right pace, and opens and closes the engine valves at precisely the right time.
The other main belt in your car, the serpentine belt, is a little bit easier to inspect and service, as the timing belt is often found deeper within the engine compartment and requires some work to get to.
If your timing belt is worn or losing teeth, it can begin to slip and run out of time. This means it’s time to get a replacement timing belt in Venice.

Without a pair of working oxygen sensors (or O2 sensors), it’s only a matter of time before you find yourself failing an emissions test. You car uses the oxygen sensors to read the level of pollutants in your emissions before and after passing through the catalytic converter so it can determine it’s working properly.
A bad pair of O2 sensors will disturb the computers reading of the fuel to air ratio needed to run the car at its most efficient level. This will cause a drop off in MPG and a loss of performance.

The cooling system in your car is hugely important. Without coolant present to cool down the engine while you drive, your car would overheat in no time, and when you car is constantly overheating, there is a drastic increase in the likely hood that you can do damage to your engine.
The Water Pump is the thing in your car that makes sure the coolant is circulating properly through the engine and radiator to keep the system in balance and not too hot.
A failed water pump can seem to sneak up on you, but if you keep your ears open for any strange sounds, like rhythmic whining, that you can trace back to the water pump, then you could be able to avoid having a serious problem on your hands.
