Your Vehicle’s Emission.

It is important, not just for your German made car, but for the planet itself. Monitoring the emission of your vehicle is very important! Many of you will have to undergo a smog test before you re-register your car. If you fail that test, the next stop should be The German Car Shoppe in Littleton, CO.

Here are some common reasons for failing that all-important test -

1.  A bad muffler.

2.  Defective spark plugs.

The Function of Your Car’s Clutch.

We hear about the clutch, but many of us do not know what that exactly entails. The professional mechanics at The German Car Shop in suburban Littleton, CO sure do! Repairing your car’s clutch (be it German-made or otherwise) is one of their many areas of expertise. What is your car’s clutch, anyway?

Here is a quick description. A clutch is necessary in the stopping of your vehicle. It essentially stops your car without causing your engine to stall. This allows your car to smoothly engage an engine that is spinning into a non-spinning transmission by controlling the slippage between the two. Your clutch works because of the friction between the clutch plate and the flywheel.

You don’t need to know all of that. Just be certain that when your German car’s clutch (or other makes) needs to be checked or repaired, you know that The German Car Shoppe is always a short drive away in the Denver area. The German Car Shoppe is located at 5115 S. Santa Fe Dr. in Littleton. See their vast array of talents at thegermancarshoppe.com.
