And because we guarantee the work we perform, you can rest assured you are receiving the highest quality engine overhaul and replacement services in the Gladstone, OR 97027 area.



Our heavy duty services include:

Cylinder Block
A cylinder block is the powerhouse for the motor vehicle. The solid cast car part houses the cylinders and their components (gaskets, valves, and seals) inside a lubricated and cooled crankcase. Since it is one of the most important parts of your car, the block is designed to be extremely strong and sturdy. Although strong and sturdy, the block is susceptible to failure resulting in a vehicle that won't start. Cracked blocks, porous blocks, core plug, or freeze plug failure are some of the problems facing cylinder blocks. Call 503-786-0700 to talk to the mechanics of In and Out Auto Care about your cylinder block problems.

Cylinder Head
A cylinder head is the closed end of a cylinder (located in a car's engine block). It sits above the cylinder block, closing the top of the cylinder and forming the combustion chamber. The cylinder head coordinates airflow in and out of the engine. Since the cylinder head's chief function is to seal the cylinders properly, insufficient compression results in the car being difficult to drive. To have your cylinder head checked and repaired, talk to In and Out Auto Care's cylinder head repair and reconditioning specialists today.

Diesel
Although diesel engines don't require tune-ups and tend to last longer than gasoline engines, they do require regular maintenance. Typical maintenance tasks include:

  • Changing the oil & filter
  • Changing the air filter
  • Changing the fuel filter
  • Bleeding the fuel system
  • Draining the water separators
  • Refilling the urea injection system

You can count on the experts at In and Out Auto Care to help your diesel engine last a long time.

Engine Maintenance
Any car part manufacturer will tell you that preventive maintenance is critical to the part's lifespan. Like other auto parts, car engines aren't built to last forever. However, you can increase the engine's lifespan by performing regular preventive maintenance. The easiest way to maintain peak performance and fuel economy is to provide regular engine maintenance for your vehicle. To have your engine maintained by experts, visit In and Out Auto Care.

Engine Repair
When your vehicle shows any sign of trouble, bring it to In and Out Auto Care for full-service engine repair in Gladstone, OR. From diagnostic check engine light repair to precision engine part repair, our expert auto mechanics are ready to help you.

Engine Replacement
The engine converts energy into useful mechanical motion. This amazing machine is what keeps your vehicle moving. Although generally reliable, a car engine is susceptible to damage and breakdown. When this happens, do not sit and stress over it. Take action. Take the vehicle to a mechanic for an engine replacement. Bring it to In and Out Auto Care. Visit us at 610 1st St for quality engine replacement services.

Timing Belt
A timing belt is a part of your car's internal combustion engine. The belt synchronizes the camshaft and the crankshaft rotation so that the engine valves open and close at the correct timings. Also, the belt prevents the piston from striking the valves in an interference engine. A timing belt is a rubber belt that usually features teeth on the inside surface, while a timing chain is a metal roller chain. Most cars we drive now have timing belts instead of timing chains and gears. Although different manufacturers have their recommended mileage, you need to have your car's timing belt checked regularly. To have it checked by experts, contact In and Out Auto Care 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 car needs a transmission flush sooner are: transmission grinding or strange noises, problems shifting gears, slipping gears, surging of the car, 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 503-786-0700 or visit In and Out Auto Care today - we are transmission experts.

Transmission Maintenance
Any car part manufacturer will tell you that preventive maintenance is critical to the part's lifespan. Like other auto parts, car transmissions aren't built to last forever. However, you can increase the transmission's lifespan by performing regular preventive maintenance. The easiest way to maintain peak performance and fuel economy is to provide regular transmission maintenance for your vehicle. To have your transmission maintained by experts, visit In and Out Auto Care.

Transmission Repair
Our services include transmission repair on both manual and automatic transmissions. The first step in getting you back on the road is assessing your transmission to accurately determine the source of the problem. In some cases, we are able to repair your transmission simply with adjustments, replacing external seals, or replacing accessible parts. To have this done by specialists, call 503-786-0700 to talk to the mechanics of In and Out Auto Care today.

Transmission Replacement
In motor vehicles, the transmission usually refers to the gear box, which uses gears and gear trains to transmit speed and torque from a rotating power source to another device. You can have your car's transmission replaced with a new, rebuilt, remanufactured, repaired or used transmission. For more information contact In and Out Auto Care in Gladstone, OR. Our experienced service technicians can help you make the best decision for your vehicle and your wallet.

What our clients are saying about us

We have established longterm and stable partnerships with various clients thanks to our excellence in solving their automotive needs!

If you want to give your car into honest and trustful hands, look no further! We recently moved from Europe and had bad luck buying a rusty car, which they found out during a thorough inspection and kept us updated about every step of the process. In the end, instead of talking us into (very) costly repairs, they suggested to sell it and gave us invaluable tips and recommendations. This will be my go-to shop in Portland now. Big shout-out to Brian and the entire team! quotes-image

I’ve been here twice. Both times I was dealing with Brian. And they are truly an amazing and compassionate auto shop. The first time I brought my car in was to get my alternator replaced, and it was the cheapest out of all the other auto shops in my area. So they aren’t out trying to charge outrageous prices. That was a pretty cut and dry experience, they fixed my car at a great price, and my alternator is still going strong. What really blew me away with this auto shop was the experience I had with them today. I brought my car in thinking that I had a leaking coolant hose which is usually a cheap fix but Brian ended up telling me that it was actually the entire coolant reservoir that needed to be replaced, making it $200 more expensive than what I thought I was going to be paying. The shop understood my situation and showed me complete compassion today that I couldn’t even believe. Totally saving my livelihood. Will recommend to others. 5/5quotes-image
