Servicing and repairs for Saab, European and every other car

Logbook Servicing

When you buy a new vehicle, the manufacturer's warranty covers mechanical parts failures, but only if the car is serviced on schedule by a certified mechanic following the manufacturer's procedures. We carry out those services, record the details and stamp your logbook, so your warranty stays valid. Our mechanics are fully certified to provide logbook servicing for:

• All petrol passenger vehicles
• All diesel passenger vehicles
• All electric and hybrid passenger vehicles

To book your next logbook service, get in touch.

Pre-Purchase Inspections

Thinking about buying a second-hand car? Bring it to us first. We inspect the vehicle thoroughly from top to bottom and tell you exactly what you are buying, so you avoid nasty surprises and may even gain an edge in negotiating the price.

Brakes

Your brakes are entirely preventative; well-maintained brakes can be the difference between an emergency stop and an accident. Urban stop-start driving wears them faster than most people expect, so have them checked regularly. We provide:

• Brake component replacement
• Brake component machining
• Brake hose repairs or replacement
• Brake restorations
• General brake services

Steering & Suspension

Worn steering and suspension affect ride comfort, handling and stopping distance, and cause body roll and play in the wheel. Your suspension also keeps your tyres gripping the road. We provide:

• Shock absorbers, coil and leaf springs, and struts
• Bushing replacement
• Power steering repairs and replacement

Air Conditioning

An Australian summer without working air conditioning is no fun, and your AC actually degrades faster from disuse than use as its rubber seals dry out and crack, letting the refrigerant leak away. We fix or replace broken compressors, condensers and valves, check the hoses for leaks, swap out perished rubber, then deodorise and re-gas the system once we are certain it is airtight.

Clutches & Transmissions

Your drivetrain is among the most intricate machinery in the car, and a small fault can quickly become a costly one. We provide:

• Clutch repairs and services
• Automatic and manual gearbox repairs and services
• CV and U joint repairs and service
• Differential repairs and service

If the car is having trouble changing gears, get in touch.

Radiators & Cooling Systems

If your engine runs hot even in normal conditions, have the cooling system checked; an overheating engine can fail catastrophically. We provide:

• Radiator and heater unit repairs and replacement
• Head gasket replacement
• Coolant flush and leak check
• Thermostat check and replacement

• Battery replacement, repair and new battery sales
• Alternator and starter motor replacement
• Replacement of other auto electrical components
• Installation of auto electrical accessories
• Electrical fault tracing

Tyres & Wheels

• Wheel balancing
• Major tyre brands for all makes and models of passenger vehicles, light trucks and commercial vehicles, and 4WDs
