At Darwin Automotive in Memphis, we offer the expertise and parts needed to maintain your engine's performance and ensure its continued reliability.

Engine Repair Services We Offer
Oil Changes
Regular oil changes provide a snapshot of your engine's health. Fresh oil should darken slightly, maintaining a consistent thickness without any gritty particles. Solid particles in the oil can indicate serious internal wear, which could lead to significant engine damage. At Darwin Automotive, our oil analysis helps in detecting and addressing such issues early.
Engine Coolant Check
Engine coolant is critical in maintaining your engine within safe operating temperatures. Overheating can lead to serious issues like radiator damage from overpressurized coolant. Using the correct coolant prevents these risks, safeguarding your engine's performance.
Ignition Wires & Cables
Healthy ignition wires and cables are essential for transmitting electrical sparks to your engine's spark plugs. Symptoms of failing wires include misfires, poor fuel efficiency, and engine vibrations. If you experience these, our mechanics at Darwin Automotive can replace faulty wires and restore engine function efficiently.
Spark Plugs
Spark plugs are key in delivering the necessary spark for combustion. Worn spark plugs can cause starting troubles and poor engine performance. Our team can check and replace your spark plugs to maintain optimal engine efficiency.
Cylinder Head Repair
The cylinder head is crucial in sealing the engine and managing airflow. Proper function prevents compression issues and driving difficulties. Our experts offer thorough inspections and repairs to ensure your engine's top performance.
Engine Replacement
Even reliable engines can fail. If you face engine troubles, don't delay in getting a professional replacement. At Darwin Automotive, we provide dependable engine replacement services to revive your vehicle's performance.
Engine Repair FAQs
Is It Okay to Drive With the Engine Light On?
The short answer, "No." The longer explanation is the light may indicate a serious engine failure and continuing to use your car as if nothing is wrong could result in a very expensive engine repair bill. The check engine light means you should stop driving and have your car looked at as soon as possible by a professional at Darwin Automotive in Memphis.
What Could Cause a Check Engine Light to Come On?
Come by Darwin Automotive and we can diagnose the reasons for a check engine light turning on. It can range from something serious like a faulty catalytic converter or potential engine failure to something simple like a loose gas cap or the need for a simple 50K or 100K mile manufacturer maintenance check.
How Long Should an Engine Repair Take?
The time it takes to rebuild an engine varies greatly, ranging from a few days for simple jobs to several weeks for intricate work. Regardless of the timeframe, a thorough understanding of the engine's components and strict adherence to the manufacturer's guidelines are essential for a successful and long-lasting rebuild.
What Does an Intermittent Flashing Check Engine Light Mean?
Flashing check engine lights warn of severe situations requiring immediate attention. Get your vehicle to an auto repair shop as quickly as possible or get it safely parked and call a tow truck to take it to your preferred auto repair shop.

What Our Customers Are Saying
Dropped my truck off for an oil change, inspection and tire rotation. I have had a check engine light on for months and they were able to track down the issue that other shops kept telling me they couldn't. Very honest and straight forward about what was needed and the price was very fair. Amazing group of guys! I will use Darwin for all my future automotive needs.

I took my INFINITY FX35 because it was not cranking anymore. I spoke with Joe and he was nice through the whole process. He did a diagnostic on it and found out that I needed to replace the Main Fuse Panel. A week or two later he called me back and told me that my vehicle was ready. I couldn't have been more satisfied. Thank you and I will doing FUTURE BUSINESS!
