Car and Automotive Repairs
Differentials
Your car may need a repair or service of its differential (diff) if you notice unusual noises like grinding, howling, or clicking sounds, especially when accelerating or turning corners, vibrations while accelerating, difficulty steering, uneven tire wear, fluid leaks from the differential area, or a pulling sensation to one side while driving. Some of these issues could be related to suspension or wheel alignment, but give us a call and we’ll accurately diagnose the source of the problem.
We can remove, rebuild, and refit all types of differentials including :
- Limited-slip differentials
- Open-centre differentials
Suspension
If you’re noticing your car has a bumpier ride than usual, pulling to one side, or that your tyres are wearing down unevenly, then your suspension may need some attention. When your car’s suspension is working properly, handling the car is smoother and responsive, and your tyres wear evenly. This improves safety. We service al types of suspension including live-axle suspension and independent rear suspension.
Repairing and servicing your vehicle’s suspension includes:
- Inspecting shocks, struts, springs, and bushings for wear or damage
- Checking wheel alignment
- Tightening loose components
- Replacing worn parts to maintain ride comfort, stability, and handling

Brake Servicing and Repairs
If your car is taking longer to stop, or if the brakes grind or vibrate when you press them, your brakes probably need a check and service. We’ll inspect your brakes and advise on any repairs or service needed, in the most cost-effective way possible.
With our in-house Brake Lathe Motor technology, repairing and servicing your car’s brakes includes:
- Rebuilding or replacing callipers or wheel cylinders
- Replacing hoses, lines, or master cylinder if leaks are present
- Checking condition of the brake fluid and replacing if necessary
- Checking and adjusting the parking brake
- Test drive to “bed in” the new components
Power Steering
Early detection of a suspected power steering problem will prevent costly repairs down the track. If you think you may have a problem with your power steering, let us do an inspection and find the cause.
Repairing and servicing your vehicle’s power steering includes:
- Checking fluid levels and flushing old fluid
- Inspecting hoses for leaks
- Testing the steering pump
- Inspecting steering racks
- Flow and pressure testing
- Leak and belt checking
Clutches
The clutch is responsible for transferring power from the engine to the wheels, by connecting and disconnecting the engine from the transmission to provide smooth gear changes. If your car is slipping gears, or has difficulty shifting, a spongy pedal, or unusual noises, these may be an indication of clutch problems.
Repairing and servicing your vehicle’s clutch includes:
- Clutch disc inspection to check for wear and tear
- Pressure plate examination to inspect for cracks, warping, or weakened springs
- Flywheel resurfacing to smooth out wear and heat spots to ensure proper contact
- Hydraulic system check for fluid levels and leaks
- Replace worn bearings to prevent noise and shifting issues

Minor and major repairs
Minor car repairs involve simple maintenance tasks like replacing brake pads, changing oil, fixing small dents, or swapping out wipers. On the other hand, major repairs require more extensive work, such as engine overhauls, transmission replacements, or suspension repairs. While minor repairs help keep your vehicle in top shape through routine maintenance, occasionally you may need major repairs to restore critical functions, prevent further damage, and keep your vehicle on the road safely for longer.
