Understanding Your Auto Service Options: Mechanics, Technicians, and Specialists

Taking care of your car involves a variety of skilled professionals. Let's break down the differences between mechanics, technicians, and specialists to help you choose the right service provider.

What is a Mechanic?

A mechanic is someone that does the “nuts and bolts” work on a vehicle, but nothing else. Before cars became more integrated with computer technology, all work was strictly mechanical. Changing your brakes, oil, and spark plugs had no computer input and didn’t need any technological calibration when they were replaced or repaired. Older vehicles that still have these components can be serviced by any shop that is familiar with their year, make, and model. The Ann Arbor area still has a few strictly mechanical shops, but not very many given that most vehicles these days have some kind of computer “brain”. 

What is a Technician?

A technician is someone that has some working knowledge of both the mechanical and computer aspects of vehicles. Anyone training today in automotive repair will be trained as a technician. A technician needs to know how the computer components interact and assist the mechanical components to ensure accurate repairs are made. 

What is a Specialist?

We have a dedicated team of specialists to best serve our customers. A specialist is a technician that has advanced training and knowledge on a specific brand, automotive group, or type of vehicles. When you bring your vehicle to our specialists, it gives you incredible benefits! 

1.     Specialists can save you money and time. 

2.     A specialist can more readily diagnose issues because they’re familiar with your specific brand of vehicle. 

3.     They can also make repairs more quickly because they work on your brand every day and know precisely how things are meant to go together.
