The air conditioning unit in your vehicle operates similarly to a refrigerator. Your vehicle's air conditioning unit is designed to move heat from the inside of your car to outside of it. The refrigerant carries heat. In modern cars, refrigerant is a substance called R-134a. Older cars' refrigerant is called r-12 freon, which is more expensive and difficult to find than R-134a.
Brakes are pretty much the most important safety device on your car. If you've ever partially lost your brakes in the past, you'll agree that it's not something you want to experience again. Inspecting your brakes twice a year for wear and damage can protect you and your passengers. Additionally, it will also help save you money by catching any damage before it becomes too costly.

Tim went above and beyond to help my son when his muffler fell off a few blocks away. Not only did he leave his shop to rig up the muffler enough to drive it to the shop, he fixed it immediately and had my son on his way in no time. Will definitely go back! Thank you!

Been coming to this place for a long time. The original owner sold the business to a new gentleman who was actually one of his employees for about 15 years. Exceptional work, fair prices.

Dave and Tim run a first rate shop! I needed a new motor for my van and nobody else wanted to do the job for me so I took a chance and called Davco Dave said bring it in and we'll look at it so I had it towed to them they diagnosed it had me stop by and they showed me the damage that the old motor had and explained everything thoroughly and WE decided to get a new Blueprint motor.

So we decided on what motor to buy and left the van there for the winter and told them to take there time motor came in December and they installed it professionally found some other issues not related to the motor and at the last minute I had Tim change out the rear gears to a more hi way suited gear. I told them I would pick it up at the end of March they called and said it was all set.

They never pressured me for anything including $$ and there estimate was right on target. I picked it up today and boy I liked there work! I'm very happy with Davco and would recommend them highly in addition to the workmanship described above I would like to thank Linda and Jill for there pleasant manor and patience while communicating with me throughout this process.

I have received great service and care from Davco for the past 2 years during my time in Syracuse. They are reliable, fair, and do a great job! After completing service on my car it always feels like it is running like new. My only regret is that I did not find them sooner. Linda and Dave are friendly and provide great advice. If you are looking for great service and trustworthy professional work you can count on Davco!

I'm very thankful to have found a repair shop that provides such honest and reasonably priced service. I randomly stopped by because of the "maintenance req" light in my car. In the end, not only did they give me a big break on the work they did, but they gave great recommendations for what repairs I should keep up and what needed to be done as soon as I could. Very friendly and kind, I'd highly recommend this shop.

I was told by other shops that I needed a new transmission. While I was shopping for estimates they took the time to research the issue and offered me an option that was less expensive and as effective (possibly more so) than replacement. I really appreciate the honesty and extra time they spent. I definitely recommend this shop and all of the helpful and friendly people I met there.

Prompt, professional, knowledgeable, caring! I could go on and on. This was my first visit to Davco Performance Automotive. Dave, Linda and the auto technicians were great! They went over and above the call of duty to help me and explained everything in plain language. I was also very surprised by their pricing. Their rates are fair and didn't leave feeling as though I had been ripped off or had work done that was unnecessary. I highly recommend this shop for your automotive needs and will be back for other routine auto maintenance myself.

Never take any vehicle here. This is the worst repair place I have ever been to. The fist time I went in it was to repair a power steering fluid leak. The second time was to repair the same leak. The third time was the final chance for this horrible failure of a place to repair it. Every time it was to deal with the hoses that they replaced the first time.

When they brought me the keys this time the first thing they said was "it wasn't our fault. It was the clamps on the hoses that we replaced were broken. So we did nothing wrong. So you have no reason to be mad at us." They then tried to tell me that I would soon get more problems with my power steering and I should just have them repair it. Making comments like if you continue to drive this car without letting us repair it then you are just putting you and your families life in danger.

They are so shady that they tried to guilt trip me into doing more repairs on my van (that they should have fixed the first time they worked on it) just to get more money from me. I will never take anything to this place again. I will repeatedly say to anyone looking for any type of repairs. NEVER EVEN CONSIDER THIS FAILURE OF A REPAIR "TECHNICIAN". Update to this review.

It has only been two months since they did the last repair on the power steering leaking. The fluid has started leaking again. The excuse for the multiple times it leaked was it was illegal to remove the original parts of the van. I still have to say to anyone even looking at this place is never use this failure at everything they do.

Today was my first day hearing of Davco Performance Automotive. Let's just say I will be a returning customer! Linda was so sweet and helpful! Around 1:20 P.M. I contacted the shop asking if they were able to look at a car because it broke down and was leaking fluid. I told Linda my location, she told me I was around the corner from the shop. She assisted me with putting fluid in the car over the phone so that I could make it to the shop.

Once I arrived at the shop the had the car fixed within a few hours. Other places couldn't get me in until next week. The prices are unbelievable! Best prices in town! On top of all of this, they also stayed open past their closing time to install windshield wipers for me at an unbeatable price! I will definetly return and tell all of my friends and family about the wonderful service that I received! Thank you so much!

I have been taking my vehicles to Davco for 2 years now. It has been nothing but a pleasurable experience. The service is excellent! From the front desk to the mechanics, I have been met with nothing but smiles and hand shake. The straight talk of what your vehicle needs now and what can wait for future visits is greatly appreciated. No pushing of items that are really not needed, but everything is explained in terms you can understand. I would recommend Davco to anyone who has any type of issue with their vehicle. Super service and super professional work!

I was looking for a new mechanic to give me a second opinion on the van my wife just got. Compared to the other mechanic I went to. Davco's is very well priced and extreamly professional and fast. Very clean and quiet. They run every test possible for you to make sure you know whats going on with your car. They brake every thing done in simpler terms for you to fully understand.

They will go over the car from front to back with you and tell you what needs to be done rite away or what can wait a while. I have finally found a family mechanic that I trust and will bring my car back to over and over. I highly recommend them to everyone and especially ones that are planing on buying a new or used car from a privet seller.
