We were visiting ABQ, when our DEF tank started acting up. We were leaving the next day. Called everywhere with no callback. Then we found Daniel with By The Book. He even texted with my wife on a Sunday! We took our truck in the next day after the code light went off by itself...lol. They tested Def and checked everything they could. Good honest people are hard to find, but this garage is BOTH! We made it back to Okc with no problems at all. I wish you were closer, as we would use you for all our truck issues. Thank you so much, Daniel!

mechanic placing a car battery into a vehicle

Your car’s radio and headlights, plus a slew of other important functions, are powered by an electrical current generated by your vehicle’s engine. A vital part of generating electricity is having a place to store it while it’s not being used. This is where your car battery comes into play. The battery of your vehicle holds electrical energy while the car is off in order to help the engine turn over and create a spark to start internal combustion. Without a working battery, your car will not be able to start. If you allow our team here at By The Book Diesel & Auto Repair to perform proper maintenance, an average car battery can start your car reliably for roughly four years.
