Nate Smith's Optimal Auto Care is doing its part to help protect our fragile environment. Special equipment is used to capture ozone depleting freon (CFC's) from escaping into our atmosphere and to capture used motor oil and antifreeze to keep it from harming our soil and water. Special electronic equipment is utilized to service and adjust your car's exhaust emission system to meet both Federal Clean Air Standards and California's Air Quality Control Standards.

Equipment
A full line of test equipment to diagnose BMW, Mini Cooper and Audi electronic components are utilized in the workshop. Numerous computerized and digital testers and meters that are absolutely necessary to service and diagnose today's complex computerized automobiles are used. Some test equipment can only be found at a BMW-specific service facility

We are connected via the internet to BMW's Technical Information website, so we have the latest service bulletins and technical training information, as it becomes available to the dealers.


Parts
A key factor in servicing European motorcars is the availability of quality parts. Nate Smith's Optimal Auto Care has an extensive parts inventory. Most parts that we don't stock are available to us within 24 hours. Parts not readily available can be air-freighted in from vendors across the country, or even from Europe when necessary.

The comprehensive inventory includes genuine BMW and Audi parts, Bosch ignition, fuel injection, and electronic parts, and accessories. This inventory is backed up by the knowledge and proper equipment for correct installation. New parts are ordered on a daily basis. Only the original equipment quality parts and in some cases, parts that are found to be superior to original parts, are sold at Nate Smith's Optimal Auto Care. Parts and service are backed by a written warranty printed on every repair order.
