We don’t need to tell you its winter. This is Cincinnati, and winters can be brutal. How’s your radiator holding up? When’s the last time you brought your car in for a radiator flush? If the answer is never, your car probably hates you. You...
It’s no secret we like European cars — especially Porches. High performing engines, stop-on-a-dime brakes, what’s not to love about a Porsche? But as our car mechanics understand very well, not all Porsches are created equal — but all are beautiful. CNet’s Roadshow recently did...

We always tell our Cincinnati customers: Never ignore the brakes on your Jaguar. Wear through a brake pad, and you’ll eat through the rotor. And that’s when the brake job becomes exorbitantly expensive. The easiest way to tell you’re due is when your brake light comes on. (Check the emergency brake first though — it just might be engaged.) If you hear grinding when the brake is applied, it’s time. Another sign is if the car gently swerves to one side or another when you apply the brakes. The pad on that side is likely out. If your Jaguar bounces up and down as you start braking, it’s probably not your brakes but your shock absorbers. They likely need replaced.
