Sluggish. Squealing. Unreliable. Vibrating. If any of these descriptors fit your vehicle’s recent behavior, it just might be trying to tell you something – like it’s time for a tune-up.

Today’s vehicles differ significantly from their decades-old brethren that required a tune-up every 10,000 or 20,000 miles. With newer vehicles, it’s increasingly common for manufacturer-recommended service intervals to stretch to 100,000 miles before certain maintenance items, such as replacing the spark plugs, should be completed.

With temps reaching 111 today the thought of sitting at the auto shop waiting for my car to get fixed was not fun. But then this is no ordinary auto shop. The newly renovated Kupers Automotive is beautiful inside. Gorgeous interior design, fresh popcorn and drinks. There's even a little area if you have to bring your pet. You walk in and it is cool and inviting. Even the couch and chairs are comfortable. The service is stellar too!! Locally owned, friendly and so professional! I feel lucky to have such a reliable and nice place to take my car. Thank you Kupers Automotive!

Your vehicle's engine needs clean air to burn the fuel – and it needs a lot of clean air. In fact, a typical vehicle needs about 216,000 gallons of air for every tank of gas. All that air passes through a filter that catches the dust and dirt. Eventually, the filter gets completely full, and because the filter can only hold so much, dirt starts getting through. At Kuper's Automotive in Red Bluff, we ensure you get the best air quality in your vehicle and explain the process of where this dirty air is going to our area drivers.

Transmission trouble codes are particularly annoying to the average driver. You might know what a misfire is, but what does it mean when you get a code for a failed governor pressure solenoid? Fortunately, Kuper's Automotive in Red Bluff, CA is here to help.

Had a major engine failure while traveling. Harry and his people did an outstanding job on this major repair. They dealt with the warranty people and assisted in getting the repair covered. When I got the truck back it is running better than ever. Very professional mechanic, keeping you informed along the process.
