Blue Star Oil Change/Service
Oil changes are essential in keeping your vehicle in tip top shape. For each oil change, we include preventative maintenance checks which includes:
     - inspections of belts - hoses - fluid levels - tire pressure and wear
     - brakes - lights - air filters - wiper blades - coolants
We use Premium Valvoline Oils and high quality filters. Quality products make a big difference on the longevity of your engine.
Blue Star Brakes
Regular brake inspections are a good idea, they can even save you money. We often end up having to replace extra parts during a brake job due to people letting them grind or squeal too long before bringing it in repairs. A brake inspection entails checking pad wear and depth of both the inner and outer pads on both sides of the front and rear brakes. Checking the rotors and or drums for irregular wear or damage. Checking the brake fluid level and condition. Inspecting the master cylinder and brake lines as well as the calipers and wheel cylinders for leakage or damage.
When Vogel Motors does a brake job on your vehicle, it is performed with high quality parts. Original equipment grade or better is a must. If your car wont go, yes it's a pain, but if it cant stop, now it's a matter of life or death. No "cheap" parts allowed.
Blue Star Tune-ups
A tune up can mean a lot of different things. At our shop we want it to mean you can feel comfortable that your engine is running at it's best. we will inspect and/or replace things like spark plugs, plug wires, distributor cap and rotor, air filter, fuel filter, check the engine timing, battery, etc. these items vary for each vehicle. Rest assured we are using high quality parts for your vehicles repairs.
Blue Star Transmission flush
At Vogel Motors we strive to extend the life of your vehicle as a whole. This often entails changing fluids of different sorts. We have machines to flush the various fluids in your vehicle, one of those being your transmission. Transmission fluid can break down over time, loosing some of it's hydraulic qualities also carrying contaminants and abrasive particles throughout the transmission. Thus needing to have the fluid and filter changed as part of it's service regiment. The longevity of your transmission fluid can have a lot to do with the driving habits and typical usage of a vehicle. Trucks pulling heavily loaded trailers will of course need serviced sooner and more frequently than grandma's grocery getter. We also have equipment to flush your cooling system, power steering system, brake fluid system and fuel injection systems.
Blue Star Car & Truck Batteries
The battery in your vehicle has more to do with how your car runs than one might think. In years past if the car started you never had to worry about the battery while it was running. In today's modern age of cars we find the electrical systems in our vehicles growing more complex daily. Therefore the voltage carried in the system can greatly affect the performance of a modern vehicle. If the voltage is low due to a weak or malfunctioning battery or alternator, the car may run as if it were weak or running out of fuel. This may be easily remedied by replacing your battery and testing the alternator and charging system. other times further repairs are needed, like an alternator , connection point or battery cable. We offer 3 different brands of batteries, all meeting original equipment standards or better. A cheap battery found at box stores often will not carry the capacity or longevity of a high quality battery bought at Vogel Motors.
Blue Star Suspension
There a lot of parts that can wear out or make squeaks and groans in our cars. Most of those parts can severely change the stability, handling and safety when they go bad so finding and fixing the issue promptly is a must. Vogel motors inspects and repairs suspension systems on virtually any brand or model of car or light truck available. Whether it needs struts, shocks, ball joints, tie rod ends, sway bar links, etc. We use quality parts for all repairs.

Blue Star Fuel injection cleaning
With the high quality of gasoline we have in this area (insert sarcasm here) the fuel injection system in your car will need cleaning sooner or later. The injectors in our cars get varnished over time. We can fix that, by flushing the injection system with a solvent or cleaning agent, testing the system pressure to verify proper fuel pump operation and installing a fresh fuel filter. Whatever the fuel problem, we can remedy the situation.

Blue Star Air Conditioning
The air conditioning systems in modern cars are far more complex than just 10 years ago. They still have the basic refrigerant under pressure = cooling type system, but many have a climate control unit rather than a slide thermostat adjustment as in the past. Most are computer controlled to keep a consistent temperature in the cab of the vehicle therefore issues can arise, sensors ,monitors, electronic clutch hardware and many other small items along with mechanical compressor issues or refrigerant leakage can cause a system to not operate properly. Our techs are trained to diagnose and repair whatever the problem may be.
