ROADWORTHY TESTING AND OTHER VEHICLE INSPECTIONS

BRAKE REPAIRS
If your brakes aren’t stopping your car as well as they once did, you may be in need of brake repairs. Worn braking parts can sometimes result in shuddering steering while braking, poor response or feel from your brake pedal, and/or squealing sounds being produced when braking. If any of these symptoms sound familiar, visit our workshop for an assessment of your vehicle’s braking systems.
Whether it’s new pads, rotors, drums, or shoes, our mechanics can repair your brakes to get your vehicle stopping like new again using products from Bendix and RDA. We are also equipped to machine your brake components and extend their lifespan, avoiding the more costly alternative of replacing the parts entirely.
CLUTCH AND TRANSMISSION REPAIRS
Over time your clutch and transmission components wear and require routine servicing, maintenance and repairs. A worn clutch can result in decreased acceleration and an unresponsive feel from your clutch pedal.
As well as repairing your vehicle’s clutch, our mechanics can service your transmission so that it continues to operate as the manufacturer intended it to.
For more information about our clutch and transmission repairs, please don’t hesitate to contact us.

TYRES
Your tyres are the contact point between your vehicle and the road. While they might seem simple at first, they are marvels of modern engineering. Your tyres are designed to continue to provide grip even as they wear (as long as your wheels are aligned properly) and in wet weather, your tyre treads act as channels to divert water away from where your tyres touch the road, and prevent aquaplaning.
Here at Tech 1 Autocare, we can provide tyres for a wide range of vehicles, including: cars, 4WDs and light commercial vehicles (vans and utes). We can also help you with tyre fitting, tyre balancing, and tyre rotation.
