Central Iowa Diesel Performance is dedicated to providing customers with quality services. From the moment you enter our Quick Lube service center, we strive to deliver exceptional truck maintenance services. Our goal is to make sure our customers are completely satisfied with their Quick Lube experience. Here is a brief list of services Central Iowa Diesel Performance can provide:

Belts
A fan belt, also known as a drive belt, is a belt connecting your truck's engine to the front mounted accessories. The fan belt rotates the water pump and engine fan, which maintains a cool environment for the engine and its components. Sooner or later, your vehicle's fan belts will dry out and crack. When you are ready for a replacement you can count on Central Iowa Diesel Performance for all your vehicle's repair needs.

You not only have to get the belts replaced with quality ones but you should have the work done by experts. To have the belts replaced by vehicle cooling and heating experts - and get your truck driving right - visit Central Iowa Diesel Performance today. The mechanics at Central Iowa Diesel Performance will thoroughly inspect your truck's belts; replace all worn belts; and adjust the installed belts.

Brake System Flush
Brake fluid attracts moisture, which can lower its boiling point and cause braking issues. Regular brake system flushes replace contaminated fluid, maintaining optimal brake performance. Visit our shop for expert brake flush services.

Coolant System Flush
A truck's air conditioning system contains a coolant which transfers excess heat from one part of the engine and finally loses it through the radiator fins. With time, the a/c coolant becomes old and dirty. The old coolant will negatively impact the system's performance. To make sure the system is working effectively, consider having a regular coolant system flush. A coolant flush is basic maintenance for your truck's cooling system. Call 515-782-5630 or visit Central Iowa Diesel Performance in Ames, IA 50014 for all your coolant system flush and fill needs. Ensure maximum performance from your vehicle's heating and cooling systems today.

Differential Flush
The differential is a truck part that compensates for the difference in travel distance between the inner wheels and outer wheels when the vehicle is turning. Due to the differential's position in most non-four-wheel-drive (FWD) vehicles (located at the rear and under the truck), it does not get any of the star treatment the engine gets. The one thing that every truck owner needs to know is that failure of the differential will mean failure of the truck. To save the differential from failure, you need to have differential fluid changed every 30,000 to 50,000 miles. Changing the oil on the differential is as important as changing the truck's engine oil. Although checking and changing differential oil is pretty easy, you need to visit a truck shop to get a comprehensive differential flush. For differential flush services, visit or call Central Iowa Diesel Performance in Ames, IA 50014 today.

Fuel Injection Cleaning
A fuel injector is an electronically controlled valve that supplies the engine with pressurized fuel. When driving, the oxygen sensors tell the engine if it is getting too much air, which signals the fuel injectors to give the engine spurts of pressurized fuel. Since fuel injectors are small pieces of equipment (and the part that squirts the fuel is even smaller), any little piece of dirt can clog it. A clogged fuel injector will hurt your vehicle's performance. To avoid misfires, poor emission rating, poor performance, and rough idle have the truck's fuel injectors cleaned regularly. For professional fuel injection cleaning services, call 515-782-5630 or visit Central Iowa Diesel Performance today.

Headlight and Bulb Replacement
To maintain maximum visibility (and keep you safe), you should always make sure that your vehicle's headlight bulbs are in good working condition. Although replacing faulty headlight bulbs is a simple and quick process (takes very little time), you need to rely on an experienced truck mechanic to handle your headlight and bulb replacement. This way, you will have quality bulbs installed by experts. Remember, it is a critical part of your truck's maintenance and your safety. For all your headlight and bulb replacement needs, call or visit Central Iowa Diesel Performance today.

Hoses
Hoses transfer coolant and antifreeze throughout the engine's cooling system (including the radiator). Sooner or later, your vehicle's hoses will dry out and crack. When you are ready for a replacement you can count on Central Iowa Diesel Performance for all your vehicle's repair needs.

You not only have to get the hoses replaced with quality ones but you should have the work done by experts. To have the hoses replaced by vehicle cooling and heating experts - and get your truck driving right - visit Central Iowa Diesel Performance today. The mechanics at Central Iowa Diesel Performance will thoroughly inspect your truck's hoses; replace all worn hoses; and adjust the installed hoses.

Motor Oil Basics
Do you know the oil basics? Did you know that even some truck mechanics do not know the oil basics? In order for your truck's engine to do its job properly, it is vital to have clean, fresh oil. The oil used in your truck has two primary ingredients: base oil and additives. The base oil allows the motor oil to perform its vital function - lubricating the engine's moving parts to protect them against wear and tear caused by friction. The additives provide additional engine protection by helping to prevent the oil from deteriorating under the engine's extreme temperature conditions. At Central Iowa Diesel Performance, we are motor oil experts - we will help you with motor oil basics. Call us at 515-782-5630 or visit our truck repair shop in Ames, IA 50014 today.

Oil Changes
Did you know that regularly changing the oil in your vehicle is one of the simplest, most effective and inexpensive ways to help protect its engine life? Oil lessens wear, reduces friction, and forms a seal between the pistons, rings, and cylinder walls. The oil also helps cool engine parts and even dampens the shock and noise of moving parts. For all your oil change needs, call 515-782-5630 or visit Central Iowa Diesel Performance today. We have years of experience helping drivers with oil changes and other auto maintenance needs.

PCV Valve Change
The positive crankcase ventilation (PCV) valve is a very important part of some trucks' emissions control systems. This valve, which is usually plugged into a rubber grommet in the valve cover, is a one-way passage for gases to escape from the engine's crankcase. With time, the PCV valve becomes clogged with sludge from the contaminants in the exhaust gases. If your truck has a PCV valve, make sure it is regularly cleaned and (if necessary) replaced. To have your truck's PCV valve changed by experts, call or visit Central Iowa Diesel Performance in Ames, IA 50014 today.

Power Steering Flush
Power steering fluid helps transmit steering force. Flushing old fluid can prevent wear and maintain steering ease.

Radiator Flush
A radiator is the part of your vehicle that keeps the engine cool and protects it from excessive heating. To be cool, the radiator needs to remain clean - always. With time, sludge, rust and other solid deposits build up inside your truck's radiator. These make the cooling system become clogged and less effective. This in effect hurts your vehicle's performance. A regular radiator flush is enough to keep the system in shape. For this reason, make radiator flushing a part of your routine truck maintenance schedule. For all your radiator flush needs, call 515-782-5630 or visit Central Iowa Diesel Performance today.

Transmission Flush
Although most manufacturers recommend a transmission flush every 30,000 miles or every two years, some symptoms may indicate that you need a transmission flush sooner. Some of the symptoms that indicate that your truck needs a transmission flush sooner are: transmission grinding or strange noises, problems shifting gears, slipping gears, surging of the truck, and delay in vehicle movement. Flushing the used fluid from the transmission washes away tiny particles of dirt, clutch material, and metal shavings. For all your transmission flush needs, call 515-782-5630 or visit Central Iowa Diesel Performance today - we are transmission experts.
