Expert diagnostics, high-end engine repair, brakes, and suspension for gas and diesel trucks and cars.
At Manzanita Ranch Auto Repair, we use advanced computer diagnostics and 20 years of hands-on experience to accurately diagnose and repair timing issues before they lead to costly failures.
Going beyond scanner codes. We pair digital diagnostics with deep mechanical testing to pinpoint complex drivability, air, fuel, and spark issues.
Timing chains, belts, valvetrain troubleshooting, rough idles, and major combustible gas engine repairs for modern and older vehicles.
High-Quality pads, premium rotors, calipers, and hydraulic fluid service engineered for local terrain, mountain grades and towing. Tell us where you drive!
Struts, shocks, control arms, and steering linkages built to endure washboard dirt roads and rural terrain.
Fuel pump testing, injector troubleshooting, and fuel delivery pressure diagnostics to restore power and mileage.

A scanner can pull an error code, but code readers don't tell the whole story. At Manzanita Ranch Auto Repair, you work directly with owner and lead technician Cameron. With nearly two decades of hands-on experience, Cameron combines advanced scan tools with a trained mechanical ear and earned diagnostic intuition to uncover the root cause of engine troubles.
We specialize in gas and diesel domestic cars and trucks (Ford, Chevy/GMC, Ram/Dodge) as well as some others. Whether you are driving a late-model daily commuter, a hardworking domestic diesel hauler, farm truck, work truck, or an older truck that auto dealerships and garages decline to service, Cameron takes on the deep mechanical problems other shops avoid.
We are a dedicated mechanical and diagnostic repair shop focusing on air, fuel, spark, engine health, suspension, and brakes. To maintain our high standard of complex mechanical repair, we do not offer standalone quick-lube oil changes or retail tire sales/mounting. (Engine fluids and filters are serviced as part of major qualifying mechanical work.)
We believe in complete honesty. Every repair begins with an accurate assessment and a detailed written estimate. You approve all work orders before repairs begin—no guesswork, no inflated parts lists, and no surprise charges at pickup. Any additional parts and labor once work begins will be presented to you prior to work being performed. Written estimates are only good until parts pricing increases from a vendor where we do not have control.
We prioritize sourcing high-quality OEM and tier-one replacement components backed by manufacturer warranties.
We source OEM and premium commercial parts backed by manufacturer warranties whenever available. If you choose to supply your own parts, please note that customer-furnished components carry no shop warranty, and any labor required to replace a failed or defective customer-supplied part is strictly billable. All exchanges between customer supplied parts and their vendor are strictly the responsibility of the vehicle owner.
