Auto Tune Up Service

Keep cool in the summer, fog-free in the winter.


A tune up service at your Minnesota AAMCO includes inspecting and adjusting every system in your vehicle that contributes to efficient fuel combustion and usage. Not only that, it adds to the lifespan of your vehicle and protects against having to make automotive repairs in the future.

Get IN TUNE with your Local AAMCO Minnesota


At Minnesota AAMCO Transmission & Total Car Care, we realize that a properly tuned vehicle can not only increase your gas mileage, but improve performance, while helping to protect the environment as well. Therefore, we recommend ensuring you visit an automotive mechanic to do a once over for all of your vehicle’s systems. This is the only way to be sure everything is running efficiently and optimally.

As we know, often times car repair estimates are not cheap, so to help keep you out of auto repair shops in the future, get a vehicle checkup sooner rather than later. We guarantee our services with the Best Nationwide Warranty.

The most helpful and genuinely friendly mechanic I have ever done business with. My wife and I moved to West St. Paul four years ago, came across a free "check engine" offer from AAMCO when we needed it, and haven't looked for another mechanic since. From diagnosis through repair, the owner Brian, goes above and beyond to provide outstanding customer service.

They were able to take me in last-minute and replace my serpentine belt and tensioner system which had fallen apart/slipped off the previous night. They provided courteous, professional service and beat their time estimate. Definitely recommend this location!
