Midas Auto Service Experts

Engine and Exhaust System

Engine Repair
A. For most high mileage vehicles, the benefits of high mileage oil outweigh the increased cost. With the average age of cars and light trucks at nearly 12 years 2, many owners are driving higher mileage vehicles and keeping them longer. Delaying the need for major engine repair isn't just a theoretical question.
Oil Change
With a Midas oil change, our technicians recommend the right oil for your vehicle, inspect your car's air filter and check the levels of vital fluids for brakes, power steering, automatic transmission and coolant/antifreeze.
Engine Tune-Up
A. How often to get an engine tune-up depends on your vehicle and driving conditions -- older vehicles are often tuned up every 10,000-12,000 miles or every 2 years. Modern vehicles with electronic engines and fuel injection have a wide variety of tune-up intervals, some as high as 100,000 miles. Check your vehicle owner's manual to learn the tune-up schedule for your make and model.
Exhaust System Repair
We offer a full range of muffler and exhaust service options, from high performance mufflers and exhaust systems to our lifetime guaranteed mufflers*, as well as value-oriented replacement mufflers and systems.
Starter Repair
If a single jump start doesn't solve your starting problems, have your battery professionally tested. If your battery is healthy, it's time for diagnostic service, beginning with your starter and alternator.
Alternator Repair
A. Most drivers don't think about alternators and starters until their vehicle suddenly won't start. The relationship between these two parts is pretty straight forward: The starter relies on the battery, the alternator relies on the starter (skipping some steps), and the battery relies on the alternator.
Engine Services
When you come to Midas for engine service, you'll get an expert diagnostic check, a thorough explanation of your engine problem, and a written estimate before we make any repairs.
Engine Diagnostic
Spark Plug Replacement
Emissions Inspection
Timing Belt/Chain Replacement
But remember, even if you have a non-interference engine, you should still follow your vehicle's recommended timing belt replacement cycle. A timing belt failure may not put you at risk for major engine damage -- but it will still cause your vehicle to stall and strand you on the road.
Fuel Injection Service/Repair
Muffler Repair and Replacement
Find your local Midas and request an appointment today. Our Midas Auto Service Experts® take the time to thoroughly explain your muffler's condition and discuss the best muffler repair vs. replacement options for your budget. We provide a written estimate before working on your vehicle.

Transmission and Drivetrain

Transmission Service
Transmission Fluid Service
A transmission flush is a process of removing all the oil in your vehicle's transmission and new oil is run through the system. This is meant to push out grime and sludge and then filled it up with new, clean oil.
Transmission Inspection
A. A trained mechanic can perform a simple transmission flush in three to four hours using a commercial flushing machine or pump inlet. A transmission fluid change takes just about 30 minutes. You'll need to allow additional time for any other services performed at the same time, such as the Midas Touch Courtesy Check, or a transmission inspection.
Clutch Service/Repair
Axle Repair

Steering and Suspension

Suspension Service/Repair
A. Your steering and suspension systems work together to keep your tires on the pavement and your vehicle under control -- until a power steering problem makes your steering wheel hard to move, or a suspension problem makes you whole vehicle hard to rein in.
Steering Service/Repair
Cleans deposits and debris from power steering systems. stop and prevent premature wear by removing abrasive particles. Promotes smoother, quieter performance.
Steering Fluid Service
Why do I need to flush my Power Steering Fluid? Power steering flush services provide the great benefits. Watch video to learn more.

Heating and Cooling

Air Conditioning Service/Repair
Our air conditioning system has components that require internal lubrication (provided by periodic A/C system operation) to avoid drying out and cracking, which can lead to system leaks. More...
Radiator Service/Repair
Radiator Flush
A coolant flush is another name for radiator flush, a procedure to clean your vehicle's cooling system of sediment and rust.
Air Filter Replacement
Your vehicle cabin smells bad: Mold in your car AC system -- a respiratory health hazard -- can generate a funky smell. New odors from your vehicle also need immediate attention. They signal simple problems like an overdue air filter replacement and significant safety hazards like Exhaust Leaks.
Air Conditioning Recharge
Refrigerant loss: Low refrigerant (coolant) is the most common cause of AC problems, and the solution is a Car AC Recharge -- plus repairs to any leaking AC components that may be causing your vehicle to lose refrigerant faster than expected.

Tire Rotation
*Most vehicles. Other grades and synthetics available at extra cost. Diesel vehicles extra, custom wheels and oversize tire rotation extra. Not valid with any other discount. - Offer good at all Oahu, Hilo & Kona Midas Shops only!
Tire Repair
At your tire repair appointment, your Midas technician will inspect your tire and let you know if we can safely repair it according to specific U.S. and Canadian industry standards 1.
Wheel Alignment
To maintain precise control of your vehicle, you need to be able to steer properly, which in turn requires a fully functioning suspension system and proper wheel alignment, two areas of auto service and vehicle maintenance expertise for Midas.
Tire Replacement
Tire Longevity: Too much or too little tire pressure shortens tire life by causing uneven tread wear (not to mention wear on parts of the tire not designed for road contact). Proper tire pressure helps you avoid premature tire replacement.
Tire Service
In addition to being North America's leader in brake and exhaust services, Midas provides expert tire service and sales with genuine Sumitomo® tires. Our technicians will inspect, rotate, and balance your tires, as scheduled. And when it's time to replace them, we will determine the correct size and kind of tire you need for the car and type of driving you do. Finally, we will make sure your new tires are properly installed. Need an alignment? We'll take care of that, too.
Tire Inspection
Tire Balancing
A. Has your steering wheel started to vibrate just as you hit the speed limit? Then it's time to have a mechanic check your... tires? Actually, yes. Vibrations at a specific range of highway speeds are a classic symptom of tire imbalance, and the effect is often first felt in the steering wheel. And that's just the beginning. Left untreated, an unbalanced tire can shorten your tire life, increase your fuel cost, and eventually damage your shock absorbers, wheel bearings, and wheel assembly. And your ride will get more bumpy -- and more dangerous. So be sure to have your tires inspected at the first sign you might need tire balancing.

Brake Service
Better still, when you come to a Midas for brake service, we include a courtesy check of your vehicle's major systems and components...for your increased peace of mind.
Brake Fluid Service
Air in the brake lines - A leak somewhere in the brake system can allow air into the system. Because air compresses, it applies less pressure to the brakes than hydraulic fluid normally does. The result: you need to press your brake pedal further down toward the floor. The solution? One or more Brake Fluid Services may be needed to remediate the issues.
Brake Inspection
, regular brake inspections should be part of your vehicle's ongoing maintenance, helping to ensure its safety and reliability. At Midas, we will examine your brakes, explain what's needed and provide a written estimate before any work is done.
Brake Repair
Brakes & Brake Repair: Learn what it means if your brake warning light (the anti-lock brake light or red brake light) is on. What you can do to try to identify the problem. What does it mean when there is brake noise or grinding? Watch the video to learn more about common brake repair problems.
