Servicing & Inspections
With most new vehicles, part of what you’re paying for is the warranty, which will protect you the buyer from any expenses resulting from manufacturer’s faults early in the vehicle’s life. To keep the protection of your warranty for as long as possible, it’s expected that your vehicle undergoes regularly scheduled servicing from a reputable mechanic.
We conduct logbook servicing for all makes and models of petrol, diesel, electric and hybrid vehicles, warning you of any issues in your vehicle before they impact your vehicle too heavily. You’ll drive away from our workshop with the peace of mind of having an intact warranty.
We also offer customers eSafety checks of their vehicles (sometimes referred to as a pink slip), to ensure your vehicle is safe and ready for use on the road.
Brake Repairs
Your brakes are your vehicle’s most important safety feature, often making the difference between an emergency stop and an accident. Your brakes also suffer the most wear and tear of any area in your vehicle, however, and need regular checking.
We offer a range of brake services for all makes and models of vehicles, including replacement of brake pads, discs and drums, repair of brake hydraulics, machining of new pads and restorations to extend the life of your existing brake parts.
Steering & Suspension
Worn or faulty components in your vehicle’s steering or suspension systems can cause many problems for your vehicle’s handling or overall ride comfort.
We can repair your suspension and steering with a range of replacement parts including car springs, shock absorbers and bushes. We can also repair your vehicle’s power steering systems and axle, to tighten up your vehicle’s handling, and conduct wheel balancing and alignments.
Clutch & Transmission
Trouble shifting or staying in gear, or strange noises and smells from underneath the car, are all symptoms of issues in your transmission, which over time can affect your vehicle’s performance.
We provide a range of services for your vehicle’s drivetrain, from clutch repairs to manual and automatic transmission servicing. We also offer servicing for your vehicle’s differential, for optimal stability and control around corners.
Radiator & Cooling Systems
Keeping your engine cool is essential to maintaining a healthy vehicle. On the other hand, an overheating engine can spell disaster for your vehicle. If you think your vehicle might be overheating, the best thing to do is either pull over immediately or drive very carefully to your nearest workshop for an inspection of your cooling system.
We’re able to provide a host of services to your cooling system, from leak checks to replacement of faulty hosing, seals, radiator units and thermostats, as well as repair damaged head gaskets.
Air Conditioning
Particularly in the hotter months, having an air conditioning system able to keep you and your passengers cool and comfortable on the road is practically essential. Your air con often goes neglected, with most of the damage caused not by wear and tear but by disuse through the cooler months causing cracks and leaks in your system’s hosing.
We’ll get your aircon back in working order, from replacing cracked and leaking hosing to repairing air conditioning units and compressors. We’ll also re-gas your system with the refrigerants it needs to keep your vehicle cool all summer long.
