Voted Best Car Wash in 2010 and 2011 by Northern Virginia Magazine, the chassis shiners at Sonic Soft Car Wash deliver a host of gleam-enhancing services at both their Woodbridge and Falls Church drive-thrus. Though services differ slightly by location, both car washes see exteriors washed, floors and seats vacuumed, and windows wiped clean of finger- and bologna-prints, plus a suite of finish-protecting treatments, such as a wheel brite and a tire shine. A Vision Clear rain repellent helps keep a truck impermeable, and a Teflon clear-coat wax brings out a vehicle's shine. Meanwhile, the three-color ultraviolet protection polish staves off the unsightly blisters and embarrassing bikini lines cars develop in heavy sunshine.

The stockroom at Best Auto Glass carries more than one million auto parts. While it’s hard to imagine the variety of windows, windshields, tints, and wiper blades for countless vehicle makes and models, one thing is clear—coming in for glass or mirror repairs or replacements means same-day service and a true match.

Among the company’s common repairs perfected over 10-plus years in business is windshield cracks. Before a windshield chip spiders into a crack, Best’s certified glass techs fill it with a resin to preserve its integrity. If the chip has already cracked, they carefully pop the windshield out and plug in a new, factory-authorized one. They also repair glass regulators when side windows become troublesome to roll up or down and can cleanly peel away old tinting from windows. Two locations conveniently serve the DC area, and techs also offer mobile services to areas such as Stafford, Ashburn, Silver Spring, and all of DC.

Valvoline Instant Oil Change's experienced auto repairers classy up vehicles with a full-service treatment. An oil change, which Valvoline Instant Oil Change recommends every three months, 3,000 miles, or total lunar eclipse (whichever comes first), keeps fresh car blood coursing through a vehicle's innards, helping the engine run smoothly. The procedure also includes a complete examination of everything from the brakes to transfer-case fluid. A tire rotation prolongs the life of tires, promoting even wear and improving the overall ride of an automobile, even when running over Wham! cassette tapes.
