Will S.In the quaint town of Milliken, a new establishment has recently sprung up, much to my delight - Senter Family Auto Repair. The convenience of having a mechanic merely a stone's throw away, a mere block and a half, was an enticing prospect. Yet, I must confess, a shadow of apprehension loomed over me, born from a history of less than satisfactory encounters with mechanics. Enter Luther, the embodiment of professionalism and a wellspring of automotive knowledge. His demeanor was reminiscent of the quintessential small-town charm, a trait I find particularly appealing when engaging in business transactions. Upon inspecting my vehicle, Luther embarked on a detailed exposition of the issues plaguing it. The list was extensive: rear pads and rotors, rear outer tie rod ends, a rear passenger wheel bearing, front outer tie rod ends, and an upper lateral link. To the untrained ear, such a litany of problems might seem overwhelming. Yet, Luther and his partner, with their remarkable efficiency, managed to rectify all these issues within the span of a single day. What truly astounded me, however, was the astonishing affordability of their service. The cost was a mere fraction of what I had previously been subjected to by other mechanics. It was a pleasant surprise, to say the least. Henceforth, Senter Family Auto Repair will be my go-to destination for all my automotive fixins. Their exceptional service and affordability have won me over. I look forward to entrusting them with the care of my vehicles in the future. - 6/03/2023read moreread less ×Will S.6/03/2023In the quaint town of Milliken, a new establishment has recently sprung up, much to my delight - Senter Family Auto Repair.

Nate E.Senter is definitely going to be a repair shop I will continue going to after taking our vehicle in for a/c repair. At first, they thought we needed a whole new a/c compressor, but found out a wire was pinched and, therefore, replaced the wire instead of entire compressor even though I was expecting a compressor replacement to be needed and prepared to spend a few hundred on the repair. Luther called and said he had saved me hundreds of dollars, & the replacement wire was only $60 ????. Appreciate Senter's honesty with what the real issue actually was instead of swindling me! Would highly recommend! Also had a fuel pump on a different vehicle replaced that was estimated around $700 that ended up being $500.

- Will S.In the quaint town of Milliken, a new establishment has recently sprung up, much to my delight - Senter Family Auto Repair. The convenience of having a mechanic merely a stone's throw away, a mere block and a half, was an enticing prospect. Yet, I must confess, a shadow of apprehension loomed over me, born from a history of less than satisfactory encounters with mechanics. Enter Luther, the embodiment of professionalism and a wellspring of automotive knowledge. His demeanor was reminiscent of the quintessential small-town charm, a trait I find particularly appealing when engaging in business transactions. Upon inspecting my vehicle, Luther embarked on a detailed exposition of the issues plaguing it. The list was extensive: rear pads and rotors, rear outer tie rod ends, a rear passenger wheel bearing, front outer tie rod ends, and an upper lateral link. To the untrained ear, such a litany of problems might seem overwhelming. Yet, Luther and his partner, with their remarkable efficiency, managed to rectify all these issues within the span of a single day. What truly astounded me, however, was the astonishing affordability of their service. The cost was a mere fraction of what I had previously been subjected to by other mechanics. It was a pleasant surprise, to say the least. Henceforth, Senter Family Auto Repair will be my go-to destination for all my automotive fixins. Their exceptional service and affordability have won me over. I look forward to entrusting them with the care of my vehicles in the future. - 6/03/2023read moreread less

Instead of throwing new sensors at it they made two quick simple repairs and all codes are gone. They could have easily over repaired and overcharged.

- Craig P.Best auto repair shop that I have found, ever. Honest service. I have always performed my own car maintenance because most shops over charge and suggest additional work when they have your vehicle. You won't experience that with Senter.

Frequently Asked Questions
My car is overheating, what do I do?
The most common causes for vehicles overheating are related to the cooling systems. Fortunately, our ASE-Certified technicians will quickly identify the problem and resolve it for you.
In the meantime, it is best for you to turn off any air conditioning and instead, turn on the heater. By doing this, it will help pull the heat away from the engine. Feel free to book an appointment to get this resolved!
How often should I change my oil?
If your vehicle uses conventional oil, you should have it replaced every 3,000 miles.
If your vehicle uses synthetic oil, you should have it replaced every 6 months or every 5,000 miles.
If your vehicle uses synthetic oil, you should have it replaced every 6 months or every 5,000 miles.
Just as blood is essential for humans to live, oil is the lifeline of a vehicle. It is extremely important to replace your motor oil every 3,000-5,000 miles, depending on your vehicle and driving habits. But don’t stop at just oil changes – other fluids in your vehicle should be routinely checked and replaced throughout your car’s life. Rely on your car’s manufacturer guidelines to determine accurate timing/mileage of fluid changes.
How often should I change my vehicle fluids?
- Transmission Fluid
Transmission fluid is a liquid that acts as a lubricant for all of the moving parts inside your transmission. There are unique types of transmission fluid for your vehicle depending if it has an automatic or manual transmission. It is recommended to have your transmission fluid replaced every 30,000-60,000 miles, depending on the type of vehicle you drive.
- Coolant
Coolant helps to transfer heat and prevent engine damage caused by freezing or boiling. Also referred to as antifreeze, coolant keeps your radiator from freezing or overheating in extreme temperatures. Depending on the manufacturer of your automobile, the coolant should be changed every 30,000-60,000 miles. Reliable mechanics will check your antifreeze/coolant levels and top them off if necessary during routine oil changes.
- Brake Fluid
Brake fluid is used to transfer force into pressure, amplifying brake force. As we all know as drivers, effective brakes are very important! Be sure to have your brake fluid changed every 2-3 years or 24,000-36,000 miles … whichever comes first for your vehicle.
- Power Steering
Since the majority of cars today have Power Assisted Steering (PAS), power steering fluid is essential for smooth steering, which allows you to turn the wheels with ease. Power steering fluid should be replaced every 75,000-100,000 miles.
- Differential Fluid
Just because the differential is at the rear and under your vehicle, it is important to not forget about maintaining its effectiveness. The differential is designed to compensate for the difference in distance the inner and outer wheels travel when your vehicle makes a turn. Lubrication location and amounts depend on if your vehicle is rear-wheel or front-wheel drive. Differential fluid, essentially “gear oil,” needs to be changed every 25,000-30,000 miles.
- Transfer Case Fluid (AWD vehicles)
Transfer cases are only found on 4-wheel drive trucks, SUVs, and minivans. It is found at the rear of these types of vehicles and transfers energy from the engine back to the rear wheels. 4-Wheel and All-Wheel Drive vehicles should have their transfer case fluid replaced every 30,000 miles to keep the small gears and moving parts lubricated and working properly.
How often should I have my brakes checked?
We recommend checking your brakes every 6 months or 5,000 miles. Our technicians will perform a free visual inspection and show you the state of your brake components. Feel free to book an appointment to get this checked!
How often should I rotate my tires?
The reason behind rotating tires is to maximize the life of your tires. All vehicle makes and models vary, it is recommended to rotate them every other oil change cycle.
How often should I change my spark plugs?
Spark plugs should be changed every 100,000 miles and they should be coupled with a fuel injection cleaning service. By performing these services, it cleans carbon build-up that will prevent future misfires.
My check engine light is on, what do I do?
If the check engine light is on, but NOT flashing, drive it in! We will diagnose it for you and have you on your way!
If the check engine light is on AND FLASHING, we recommend you do not operate the vehicle, as that is your vehicle telling you there is a misfire and we recommend you have it towed in to have it diagnosed.
