car and truck maintenance

Our basic auto maintenance services include:

30/60/90K Mileage Maintenance
Most automakers recommend car maintenance at 30,000-mile intervals, adhering to the 30/60/90K mile schedule provided to car owners. Our team can keep you on track, preserving your vehicle's condition, optimizing its performance, and enhancing its resale value. The 30/60/90K service covers:

  • Fluid replacements
  • Oil and Filter changes
  • Tire rotation, spin balance, and pressure adjustments
  • Inspection of parts and systems - gears, tires, brake pads, belts, hoses, etc.
  • With higher mileage: spark plugs, belts, timing belts when applicable

Belt Replacement
Fan belts (or drive belts) dry out and crack over time. If you hear squealing or see wear, visit MasterTech Automotive in Colchester for expert belt inspection and replacement using quality parts.

Factory Scheduled Maintenance
Automakers provide a service schedule for each vehicle. Our Colchester technicians follow this closely for gas and diesel vehicles, domestic or import, to ensure long-term performance.

Hose Replacement
Cracked, dry hoses can leak coolant and cause overheating and prevent optimum performance. We inspect and replace worn hoses to keep your cooling system in top shape.

Oil, Lube & Filter Changes
Most vehicles need oil and filter changes every 3,000 to 7,500 miles. We provide full oil, lube, and filter service at MasterTech Automotive to prevent wear and overheating.


Oil Filter FAQs


How often should oil filters be changed?

Consult your owner's manual to determine the maintenance interval for your vehicle's oil filter. Some manufacturers recommend that the oil filter be replaced every time you get your oil changed while others recommend every other time.

Why is water leaking on my foot on the driver's side?

The most common cause is a blocked air conditioning drain hose. This is a simple repair at MasterTech Automotive. There are other possible causes of water dripping on your foot on the driver's side of the car including a broken door seal or leaking heat exchanger.

Why is my car leaking a sweet-smelling fluid?

If there is a sweet-smelling fluid leaking from your car, the most likely culprit is leaking coolant or antifreeze. A coolant leak can become a serious problem. If your vehicle gets too low on coolant or antifreeze, it will overheat and may cause engine damage.

FAQs About Automobile Squeaks, Squeals and Rattles


Why are my wheels making a chirping sound when I accelerate?

The most common reason why your car's wheels make a chirping or squealing sound, especially during acceleration is a bad wheel bearing. If you notice a grinding or grating noise coming from your wheel this can also be the sound of a wheel bearing beginning to fail. If you are in Colchester, Burlington , near Battery Park, off Burlington Beltline or the surrounding area, come by MasterTech Automotive and we can diagnose the problem quickly.

Why does my car make a noise when I turn the steering wheel?

If your car makes strange sounds or clicks when you turn the steering wheel the most common cause is a low steering fluid. Over time the steering fluid decreases and air enters the steering mechanism causing unwanted noises. Come to MasterTech Automotive to top off your fluid reservoir with power steering fluid. The noises should start to go away immediately. If the sound returns quickly your car could be leaking steering fluid. Our professionals in Colchester can help you diagnose and repair leaks quickly and affordably.

Why is my car making a squealing noise?

It may be a slipping fan belt. Listen for a few warning signs such as a squeaking or chirping noise. Those noises are usually caused by misalignment of the belt and the pulley. If you come by MasterTech Automotive in Colchester our professional auto repair technicians can realign it to stop the noise and fix it before your fan belt completely breaks.

I bring my car to MasterTech Automotive for service, oil changes, tire changes and undercoating. I travel to COLCHESTER from MONTPELIER for this... Do I need to say more?

I showed up first thing in the morning and was greeted by Keith. He said good morning and asked how he could help. I explained my situation with my car and listened and stayed calm and said that even though they were busy he would work it in and check back at the end of the day. I get a notification midday that the car was done! He picked me up in my car!! No smoke and mirrors, straight talk from Keith! The best service I've experienced from a repair shop. He dropped me off and picked me up. He was knowledgeable and stayed calm. If I need the car serviced again, I'm not calling anyone else.

I wanted a second opinion on fixing the convertible top on my older BMW. I am so glad I did. Keith researched the issue and fixed it quickly and reasonably. I would recommend this garage to anyone.

I dropped my car off at Master Tech in Colchester to have my snow tires taken off and the regular tires put on. I left a note asking if he could help with the battery. Keith called me first thing the next morning and said he would drop my car off at my home and charge my car battery for me. Talk about service..........I have always been happy with the mechanical and customer services at MasterTech and I highly recommend Keith.
