Engine Repair in Phoenix, AZ
Your car’s engine is its heart, and when it’s not ticking just right, you might have a problem. Don’t delay when you realize there’s an issue with your engine. For engine repair in Phoenix, Surprise, Glendale, Tempe, and Scottsdale, Thunderbird Auto is the best place to go.

Why Are Engine Diagnostics Important?
If you’re not an expert in the field, it can be difficult to understand what’s going on with your vehicle. It’s like going to the doctor and having them explain the finer points of biomechanics — it’s just not clear.
We use digital diagnostic tools to clarify what could otherwise be a decidedly opaque world of auto repair. The Thunderbird Aut difference is in our transparency throughout every step of the engine repair process. If we prescribe a certain engine repair, we can show you what we’re talking about on the engine diagnostic report.
Bringing your car to the shop more than once for the same problem is more than an inconvenience — it’s a nightmare. That’s why we diagnose the problem correctly the first time and repair it with an ASE-certified, AAA-backed team of Peoria, AZ, auto mechanics. It’s our dedication to quality service and engine repair that keeps you on the road, not in our shop.
Common issues we see include:
- Frequent overheating
- Inadequate coolant levels
- Knocking
- Smoking and steaming
- Stalling out
- Choking radiator

What if the Check Engine Light Comes On?
If your check engine light comes on, you should get it checked out right away. There are a number of reasons why this happens, but some of the most popular include:
- Loose gas cap
- Problems with the catalytic converter
- Malfunctioning oxygen sensor
- Issues with spark plug wires.
No matter why your check engine light is on, work with our ASE-Certified team of mechanics in Phoenix before the problem spirals out of control.
