Preventive Maintenance You Can Count On
At Gracious Auto Repair, we believe the key to avoiding expensive breakdowns is simple: stay ahead with preventive maintenance. Located at 10001 Weeks Dr in Lincoln, NE, we help car owners stay safe and stress-free with reliable maintenance services tailored to each vehicle’s specific needs.
Whether you're commuting daily or taking long road trips, regular maintenance is what keeps your engine strong, your brakes tight, and your fuel economy high. We take the guesswork out of caring for your vehicle by providing clear, affordable service recommendations based on mileage, manufacturer guidelines, and current vehicle condition.
Our Maintenance Services
Our Lincoln-based shop provides a full suite of maintenance services designed to keep your vehicle performing its best. Every service includes a complimentary inspection to catch any potential problems early.
Our core maintenance offerings include:
- Oil & Filter Changes:
We offer high-quality conventional and synthetic oil changes, always replacing the oil filter and checking fluid levels. Clean oil keeps your engine lubricated, reduces wear, and improves fuel efficiency. - Tire Rotation & Pressure Check:
Uneven tire wear affects fuel economy and handling. We rotate your tires and ensure pressure meets manufacturer specifications. - Brake System Check:
Even during maintenance appointments, we inspect brake pads, rotors, and fluid to ensure everything’s functioning safely. - Battery Testing:
We test your battery’s charge and inspect terminals for corrosion or looseness—especially important before seasonal weather changes. - Fluid Top-Off & Leak Checks:
Engine coolant, power steering fluid, brake fluid, and windshield washer fluid are checked and topped off. We’ll also look for signs of leaks.
- Belt & Hose Inspection:
We visually inspect serpentine belts, timing belts, and radiator hoses for cracking, fraying, or wear. - Air Filter Replacement:
A clean air filter keeps your engine breathing properly, improving both efficiency and performance. - Wiper Blade Replacement:
We inspect and replace worn blades for clearer visibility in bad weather. - Factory-Scheduled Maintenance:
We follow manufacturer service intervals and can stamp your service log to keep your vehicle’s warranty valid.
