Our Services

One shop for everything your vehicle needs

Car Servicing & Tune-Ups

Oil changes, filters, belts, plugs and scheduled maintenance that keeps your vehicle out of the shop longer.

Cooling System Repair

Radiators, water pumps, thermostats and hoses — overheating diagnosed and fixed before it costs you an engine.

Dash Lights & Diagnostics

Check engine light on? We read the codes and then actually find the cause instead of guessing at parts.

Amazing work on our 2010 Dodge Ram 1500. Great people, understanding, friendly... No question, I will be a repeat customer.
Brian L. BrownFacebook review
Bryan takes very good care of our vehicles. We have older vehicles with lots of miles, but he keeps them running like brand new! He doesn't run up the bill by adding repairs that aren't necessary. Best mechanic in town.
Tina Ford WatkinsFacebook review
If you are tired of getting jerked around by high costs and poor labor from dealerships, look no further than Advanced Autometric. Bryan is your tech. A graduate of Wyoming Technical Institute with honors and disciplined in high-end foreign cars, he is well-rounded in all vehicles and will not disappoint.
