Belts
A fan belt, also known as a drive belt, is a key component of your car’s engine, connecting it to the front-mounted accessories. The fan belt has the crucial role of ensuring the rotation of the water pump and engine fan, which in turn maintains a cool environment for the engine and its key components. Like any vehicle part, fan belts are not immune to wear and tear – over time, they will dry out and crack.
When it’s time to replace belts, don’t settle for just any repair service – trust the experts at Pyle Automotive. Our comprehensive service includes a thorough inspection of your car’s belts, replacement of all worn belts, and precise adjustment of the newly installed belts.

Headlight and Bulb Replacement
Ensuring that your vehicle’s headlight bulbs are functioning correctly is essential for safety and visibility. Though replacing a faulty headlight bulb may seem like a straightforward task, it is often best left in the hands of experienced auto mechanics. At Pyle Automotive, we employ a team of professionals who will install quality bulbs, ensuring you won’t have to worry about this critical part of your car’s maintenance. Remember, proper headlight maintenance is not just about maintaining your vehicle—it’s about ensuring your safety on the road. Contact us or visit Pyle Automotive today for all your headlight and bulb replacement needs.
Hoses
At Pyle Automotive, we understand the importance of maintaining the health of your vehicle’s engine cooling system, and a crucial part of this system is the hoses. These components serve a vital role in transferring coolant and antifreeze throughout your engine, including the radiator. However, over time, these hoses can dry out and crack, leading to potential engine damage if not addressed promptly. When the time comes for a replacement, rest assured you can rely on the expertise at Pyle Automotive for your vehicle’s repair needs.
Oil, Lube, and Filter
Regular maintenance of your vehicle is essential for its optimum performance, and one key component of this is the consistent change of oil, lube, and oil filters. These elements play a significant role in lubricating, cooling, and cleansing the intricate engine components. Over time, the efficiency of motor oil diminishes as it becomes contaminated. Consequently, it is recommended to have your car’s oil, lube, and filter changed every three months, or every 3,000 miles. Entrusting this task to professionals ensures it is done correctly and to the highest standards.
Wiper Blade Replacement
Visibility is a critical factor in ensuring safe driving. It is vital to maintain properly functioning wipers, as they can significantly enhance your safety while on the road. If you notice that your car’s wipers aren’t performing optimally or are leaving streaks, it’s time to replace them without delay.

It’s important to take care of problems with your vehicle right away. To make it easier for you to take care of your vehicle and to avoid problems, here are the answers to our most frequently asked questions. If you can’t find what you’re looking for, please contact us today.
How often should oil filters be changed?
Consult your owner’s manual to determine the maintenance interval for your vehicle’s oil filter. Some manufacturers recommend that the oil filter be replaced every time you get your oil changed while others recommend every other time.
What are the three types of oil filters?
- Cellulose media filter – This is the most common type of disposable oil filter found in cars today.
- Synthetic media filter – Made from high quality synthetic fibers, also catch and remove the smallest particulates and withstand complex chemical reactions better.
- Micro glass media filters – High-end oil filters that include an extremely fine metal media or micro glass material.
What should I do if my car creates a small oil leak on my driveway?
If you happen to notice an oil spill while it’s still wet, immediately cover the stain with a substance that can effectively absorb the oil. This could be clay cat litter, sand, cornmeal, cornstarch, or baking soda. These materials act as sponges, helping to soak up the oil before it has a chance to seep into the cement. After the spill has completely dried, sweep up the absorbent material. The final step is to cleanse the area of the remaining stain using water and soap. A small oil leak on your driveway is not to be taken lightly – it serves as an alert that there might be something wrong with your vehicle. At Pyle Automotive, we can help diagnose the problem. It’s important to not ignore an oil leak as it can lead to severe damage to your car’s engine.
Why is my car leaking a sweet-smelling fluid?
If you notice a sweet-smelling fluid leaking from your car, it’s highly probable that you’re dealing with a coolant or antifreeze leak. This issue should not be taken lightly as it can escalate into a much larger problem. When the coolant or antifreeze level in your vehicle drops too low, the risk of overheating significantly increases, potentially causing substantial damage to the engine.
Why are my windshield wipers not working?
At Pyle Automotive, we understand the importance of functional windshield wipers for your safety while driving. If your wipers won’t turn on, it’s commonly due to a blown fuse, which we can replace swiftly and affordably for your convenience. Other potential issues could stem from electrical faults in the control arm or the wiper motor itself. Additionally, if you notice that your wipers aren’t effectively clearing water from your windshield, the culprit is likely torn or worn-out wiper blades. Being made of rubber, these blades are put under constant strain and therefore should be replaced frequently. Trust in Pyle Automotive to resolve these issues promptly, ensuring you’re back on the road safely in no time.
Why are my wheels making a chirping sound when I accelerate?
The most common culprit behind your car’s wheels producing a chirping or squealing sound, particularly during acceleration, is a damaged wheel bearing. This noise might also be accompanied by a grinding or grating sound emanating from your wheel, indicative of a wheel bearing on the brink of failure. For residents of Salt Lake City, South Salt Lake, Millcreek, Canyon Rim, or nearby areas, feel free to drop by Pyle Automotive. Our skilled technicians can swiftly diagnose and resolve the issue, ensuring your vehicle’s optimal performance is restored.
Why does my car squeal when I start it in the morning?
Beware of the telltale noise that may indicate a worn out cambelt, also commonly referred to as a timing belt. You might observe a range of noises from a high-pitched squeal to a low-frequency rumble or even a sharp hissing sound when you start your car’s engine. Don’t dismiss these sounds as they might be your cambelt screaming for attention. A neglected cambelt is a ticking time bomb, and if it snaps, the damage to your car’s engine can be catastrophic. Don’t gamble with your safety or the wellbeing of your vehicle. Make a prompt visit to Pyle Automotive and let our skilled technicians replace your faulty cambelt, saving you from potential disaster.
Why does my car make a noise when I turn the steering wheel?
If you’ve noticed unusual sounds or clicks emanating from your car when you maneuver the steering wheel, the most common culprit is typically depleted steering fluid. Over time, this fluid tends to diminish, allowing air to penetrate the steering mechanism, thus leading to these unwanted noises. Don’t fret — at Pyle Automotive, we can swiftly rectify this issue by topping off your fluid reservoir with high-quality power steering fluid. You should notice an immediate cessation of these noises. However, if the sound returns shortly after, it could be indicative of a leak in your steering fluid system. Rest assured, our team of experienced professionals based in Salt Lake City, are adept at swiftly diagnosing and repairing such leaks, offering you a quick and cost-effective solution.
