At Duane’s Dealer Alternative, we stand out in our understanding of the unique needs of your diesel vehicles. Our team of ASE-certified technicians, with their specialized knowledge in diesel repairs and years of experience working with all types of diesel cars and pickups, are always dedicated to providing top-quality services to our customers in Safety Harbor, FL.  

While low-emission, hybrid, and electric cars are in the spotlight, we at Duane’s Dealer Alternative know that many consumers still maintain a trusty diesel engine vehicle.  Duane & Kimberly have one diesel vehicle that they won’t sell or trade simply for the longevity and durability which is their 2006 GMC Sierra 2500 HD Turbocharged 6.6L 8-Cylinder DIESEL (that’s not a typo, it’s a 2006!). After 18+ years the diesel engine is running strong at only 187,000 miles.   

Diesel vehicles are known for their durability and power. However, they can also experience common issues such as fuel injector problems, turbocharger and turbo diesel failures, and exhaust system malfunctions. Our team at Duane’s has the expertise to diagnose and repair these issues. Contact Duane’s Dealer Alternative in Safety Harbor, FL, for an appointment at (727) 725-4373 or visit our shop at 915 Harbor Lake Dr, Suite C, Safety Harbor, FL 34695.   

Personal Vehicle Diesel Services  

At Duane’s Dealer Alternative, we provide diesel services for personal vehicles. This allows us to specialize in personal diesel vehicles and provide our customers with the highest quality of service. One of our team’s most frequent problems is fuel injector failure, which can lead to reduced engine performance and increased emissions. Turbocharger failures are another common issue, often resulting from a lack of maintenance or poor-quality oil, causing a noticeable loss in power and efficiency.  

Additionally, exhaust system malfunctions can occur, including clogging of the diesel particulate filter (DPF) and issues with the exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) system, leading to decreased fuel economy and increased pollutants. At Duane’s Dealer Alternative, our expertise in these areas ensures that we can effectively diagnose and repair these problems, restoring your vehicle’s performance and reliability.  

With most of the manufacturers having a diesel in their lineup, our expert mechanics can help with the routine service on newer Chevrolet, GMC, Cadilac, Ford, Dodge, Jeep, Land Rover, and even older model sedans from Audi, BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Volkswagen (love those VWs!), and Jaguar most of the time! Our ASE-certified technicians enjoy working on older Asian makes such as Toyota, Mazda, Honda, Isuzu, Nissan, etc. Bring your diesel vehicle by so we can enjoy your treasure with you – these vehicles deserve a decade or more on the road.  Let Duane’s Dealer Alternative help you take care of your vehicle – we service all makes and models! 

At Duane’s Dealer Alternative, we take pride in our work and stand behind it with a Nationwide 36-month/36-mile warranty.
