Will be using them for all my automotive needs in the future.” —Jude H. “I am new to the area and Organic Mechanic was recommended to me for my Jeep. So glad I took my car to them. Everyone I talked to was friendly and thorough in their explanations. I really appreciated getting an email with the results of their inspection before talking to them about the work to be done as it gave me a little time to get familiar with needed repairs and be ready with questions. They kept in touch with me and the work was done in a timely manner. I will definitely keep taking my car there. Thanks everyone at Organic Mechanic!” —Paula P. “I only have good things to say. Even though the issue with the car was intermittent, the diagnosis was completed successfully, and the problem was resolved in a timely manner. This is an older car, as well, so extra thanks are in order.” —Donald W. “Organic Mechanic was great! They worked very quickly and were transparent about what I needed to drive my car safely.

If you suspect that an issue is developing in your engine, it’s important to address it ASAP. This will give you the best chance to resolve it before it worsens and potentially results in a breakdown and more expensive repairs. At The Organic Mechanic, we provide expert engine repair in the greater Asheville area. Here’s a look at five symptoms of engine trouble. Warning Light on the Dashboard If your check engine light turns on, you’ll want to get to the shop for diagnostics. While this light doesn’t automatically mean that engine failure is imminent, it’s still best to identify and address the issue before it escalates. Common causes of an illuminated check engine light include issues with MAF sensors, oxygen sensors, and catalytic converters. Discolored/Excessive Exhaust Smoke Discolored/excessive smoke coming from your exhaust can be a visible sign of engine trouble. The color of the smoke can help identify the underlying problem. Blue smoke may indicate burning oil, white smoke could be a sign of a coolant leak, and black smoke might suggest an overly rich fuel mixture. Unusual Odors Abnormal smells coming from your vehicle, especially from the engine compartment, may indicate various problems. A burnt odor might signal an overheating engine, while a sweet smell could point to a coolant leak. Ignoring these odors may lead to serious engine damage or even pose safety risks. Strange Noises One of the most apparent signs of engine trouble is unusual noises. If you hear knocking, pinging, hissing, or any other unfamiliar sounds coming from under the hood, it's time to investigate. These noises may indicate serious issues. Fluid Leaks Leaking fluids under your parked car could be a red flag for engine problems. Namely, engine oil and coolant leaks can result in severe engine problems. Regularly check under your vehicle for any telltale signs of fluid leaks and address the issue promptly to prevent further damage.
