Automotive Industry News & Information - Royson's Automotive

Spark plugs have been around since the beginning, and play as important a role now as they did a hundred years ago. It’s a good idea to replace them as a set at regular intervals, but sometimes one will go bad sooner than the rest for one reason or another. How do you know if you have a bad spark plug? Here are some indicators, from Royson's Automotive, SC.

Whether you drive a Chevy, Dodge, or Ford diesel truck, there are a variety of options out there for a replacement engine. Depending on your truck's worth, it may depend on the type of engine and the amount of money you want to put into it. You can purchase a used, rebuilt, remanufactured, or even new diesel engine to replace your old. At Royson's Automotive, we’re here to help you choose the right one.

At Royson's Automotive, we know it isn’t always easy deciding what to do next when it comes to major engine repairs. Fortunately, that’s what we’re here for - to help you make the best decision for your situation.

Whether you drive a BMW, Mercedes, Audi, Porsche (some exclusions apply), Subaru, or other performance automobiles, your car has a cooling system. With winter right around the corner, at Royson's Automotive we want to make sure your cooling system is ready for the cold.

The hydraulic system in your transmission is responsible for telling the mechanical components what to do, and when to do it. In order to better understand how your transmission works, it’s important to understand the mechanical components of it.

I have used K&A Automotive for years , and I have been very happy with their service. They have reasonable prices, and have a friendly staff. They are honest and are always willing to go the extra mile to find any parts you need. I highly recommend K&A Automotive.

I had been to two other Chapin auto repair shops prior to Royson's. Both of the previous places were a pain to get an appointment to. They made you leave your vehicle all day just for an oil change and tire rotation. Neither if the previous ones were convenient and it didn't bother them to inconvenience you. Royson' was pleasant, able to do the tire rotation and oil change quickly while I waited, which wasn't long. I also had them check my brake pads and rotors when they rotated the tires, the lady in front said they would do that anyway. One of the other places I had taken the vehicle to for rotation stated I needed brake pads and rotors, and would charge well over $500 to replace them and do the work. Royson's mechanics stated the pads were good for another 10,000 mikes at least and have them rechecked then. Royson's also stated there was nothing wrong with the rotors. Royson's Auto Repair in Chapin was very friendly, courteous, honest and efficient, very unlike those other three places in Chapin. Royson's obviously makes their money by being efficient, fair, reasonable and honest, and having repeat business, not buy gouging everyone who comes in, like the others tried to do to me. I have finally found a friendly, good, reputable, fair, reasonable, honest, convenient and efficient place to have my vehicles serviced. Definitely Highly Recommend Royson's and will come back for any future needs. They earned 5 STARS!!!

Most people ignore their tires, yet tires are undoubtedly a critical safety component on a vehicle. Here at Royson's Automotive, we know where the rubber meets the road affects traction, handling, steering, stability, and braking. Because of this, sudden tire failure can have serious consequences, especially if it occurs when operating at high speeds.
