Automotive Servicing and Repairs in Bunbury

The holiday season is upon us, and there's nothing more exciting than planning a Christmas getaway. The joy of hitting the open road, with festive tunes and a car packed full of gifts and laughter, is a quintessential part of the Australian Christmas experience. However, the last thing you want is for car trouble to put a damper on your holiday cheer. That's why regular car servicing is essential, especially as the busy Christmas period approaches.

Ensure a Safe Christmas Journey with Regular Car Servicing

First things first, let's talk timing. Many workshops, including Autotech Bunbury in Bunbury, get extremely busy in the lead-up to Christmas. With most of them closing for the holiday period, booking early is crucial. Avoid the last-minute scramble and the potential disappointment of a fully booked garage by scheduling your service as early as possible. This foresight not only ensures your car is in prime condition for your road trip but also keeps your holiday stress-free and enjoyable.

Regular car servicing is the backbone of vehicle maintenance, ensuring your ride is safe, efficient, and reliable. During a typical service, a range of mechanical tasks are performed to check and maintain the car's optimal performance. Here's what you can expect:

1. Oil and Filter Change: 
Fresh oil and a clean filter are vital for keeping your engine running smoothly. They help in reducing wear and tear and preventing overheating during long drives. A smoothly operating engine is also more efficient which helps to keep your fuel usage down, translating to savings in the hip pocket.

2. Brake Inspection: 
Ensuring your brakes are responsive is crucial, especially during the holiday season when traffic can be unpredictable. A service includes checking brake pads, fluid levels, and the overall brake system to make sure it is up to the task of keeping you and your passengers safe on your holiday travels.

3. Tyre Check and Rotation: 
Properly inflated and aligned tyres are essential for a safe trip. Your mechanic will inspect for wear and rotate the tyres for even usage, enhancing grip and fuel efficiency. Good tyres also go a long way towards lessening driver fatigue, an issue you can do without when trying to enjoy a relaxing holiday.

4. Battery Test: 
The last thing you need on a remote road is a dead battery. Regular servicing includes testing the battery's health and connections to help ensure you don't find yourself stranded in the middle of nowhere with a vehicle that won't start.

5. Fluid Level Check: 
From coolant to transmission fluid, ensuring all fluids are at optimal levels prevents breakdowns and keeps your car running smoothly. Knowing all your fluids are in good condition and at the appropriate levels gives you added peace of mind that your car is ready

6. Lights and Wipers: 
Visibility is key, so all lights and wipers are checked to ensure they’re functioning correctly, preparing you for all driving conditions.

Embarking on a road trip is an adventure, and having peace of mind knowing your vehicle is in top condition is priceless. Having a professional mechanic, backed by a nationwide warranty, service your car before you hit the road gives you confidence in the safety and reliability of your vehicle. Autotech Bunbury offers this assurance, with expert technicians who are part of the Repco Auto Tech training program, keeping up-to-date with modern vehicle repair methods.

This means you’re not just relying on a routine check but entrusting your vehicle to skilled professionals who understand the intricacies of your car. In the unlikely event that something goes awry during your travels, a nationwide warranty ensures that help is never far away, no matter where your holiday takes you.

Regular car servicing isn’t just about preparing for a single trip; it’s about long-term benefits that enhance your driving experience. Here are some key advantages:

Improved Safety: 
By addressing potential issues early, regular servicing ensures your vehicle is safe, reducing the risk of accidents.

Increased Longevity: 
Keeping up with maintenance tasks prolongs the life of your car, meaning fewer replacements and repairs over time.

Better Performance and Efficiency: 
A well-maintained car runs more efficiently, saving you money on fuel and improving performance.

Enhanced Resale Value: 
A car with a comprehensive service history is more attractive to buyers, ensuring a higher resale value.

The spirit of Christmas is about joy, togetherness, and creating lasting memories. Don't let vehicle issues spoil this special time of year. By prioritizing regular servicing at Autotech Bunbury, you're investing in a stress-free holiday, ensuring every journey is safe and enjoyable.

So, take action today. Book your car in for a service with Autotech Bunbury before the Christmas rush begins, and experience the peace of mind that comes with knowing your vehicle is in expert hands.

Whether you're staying local in Bunbury or venturing further afield, a well-maintained car is the best gift you can give yourself this Christmas. Safe travels and happy holidays...

Autotech Bunbury have the experience, skills and know how to identify, diagnose and solve even complex EFI issues and get your car performing the way it should. So if your fuel economy is not what it should be, or the car is running rough or in "Limp mode" bring it into our Bunbury workshop for an EFI service today.

Electronic Fuel Injection systems (EFI) in modern vehicles consist of a high pressure fuel delivery system controlled by a specialised electronic control unit, or ECU.

As many as thirty or more sensors constantly update the data available to the ECU at any given time. The ECU uses this data to determine the correct mixture of air and fuel the engine requires in order for it to perform most efficiently. This can help reduce fuel costs and minimise exhaust emissions, making regular checks of the EFI system well worth the effort even if there are no apparent problems.

If you are experiencing unusually poor fuel economy, it seems the car ‘runs rough' when idling or has developed a classic backfire there is a very good chance that there could be a problem with your EFI, or Electronic Fuel Injection System.

Another classic sign that your electronic fuel injection may need a service is when the engine runs for a short while after switching off the ignition. An apparent increase in fuel use or noticeable decrease in performance may also be related to an EFI issue.

EFI problems can sometimes be relatively simple, such as contaminated fuel from letting a fuel tank become completely empty or a clogged fuel injector. Sometimes however, the problem lies well hidden, deep within the highly sophisticated EFI System. Our Bunbury car service workshop is equipped with the specialised, advanced diagnostic testing equipment needed to be able to diagnose, service and repair your EFI.

Regular servicing or inspection of your Electronic Fuel Injection System will help your car perform more efficiently and save you money at the pump. That's real Peace of Mind. Given the complex nature of modern fuel injection systems, a qualified mechanic with specialised diagnostic equipment is best placed to service or repair your EFI.

How Autotech Bunbury diagnose & fix EFI problems

Autotech Bunbury use special computer diagnostic equipment to test your car's ECU (electronic control unit). The ECU is essentially a central computer which controls (amongst other things) the fuel injection process by taking information from the many sensors spread throughout the vehicle and making “decisions” based on pre-programmed inputs. The ECU can ‘self-diagnose' faults and send out special fault codes which our diagnostic scan equipment is then able to extract and interpret. 

Quite often, the ECU is being given ‘wrong' information by faulty sensors or other environmental factors and this is when we have to call upon our expert knowledge and advanced diagnostic training to correctly identify the problem. 

Electronic probe testing and visual inspections can be made of your car's sensors, throttle valve, fuel filter, fuel pump and fuel injectors to make sure they are working correctly 

Any leaks must be identified and repaired without delay - Air leaks will seriously affect performance and fuel economy and can cause severe damage to engine components. It goes without saying you don't want fuel leaking out either! 

Over time, Fuel lines, filters and valves can become clogged with contaminants or tank sediments so they'll need to be cleaned and on occasion replaced. Where necessary, some components can be unclogged using special flushing compounds. 

Sensors (or the lines connecting them to the ECU) which are faulty or damaged may need to be fixed or replaced. While your car technically might be able to function without some of these sensors, they all keep track of information that is vital to the efficiency, performance and safety of your vehicle. Your engines ECU may prevent running of the vehicle until they are functioning correctly or it may trigger the vehicle into a state of basic operation known as ‘limp mode'

When your cars electronic control unit (ECU) encounters data which is incorrect (or outside of known value ranges) or which it cannot process, it will set a fault code and initiate some form of warning. When such problems occur in major vehicle systems it can trigger what is known as 'Limp Mode'. As the Fuel system of a car is considered a major system, faulty or failing sensor or lines may trigger this safety function.

Limp Mode is designed to allow you to get a car to a safe location (off the road) and can protect both you and the car from serious problems that could arise from continued 'normal' operation of the vehicle. If you find your car enters limp mode you should pull over immediately and get it checked over by a qualified mechanic asap, even if the computer 'resets' itself. Cars can act quite erratically in Limp Mode.

Autotech Bunbury can help diagnose if the issue is an EFI related problem or if you need to look elsewhere for the cause of the cars behaviour.

European car service in Bunbury

Differential bushings could be the issue if they are aged, worn or cracked.  They control movement in the joints, absorb road bumps and reduce vibrations and noise while driving or reversing. These are one of many automotive issue we can handle at Autotech Bunbury, your trusted local mechanic in Bunbury.

It is fair to say that the Ford Territory and Falcon are two of the most popular vehicles on Australian roads. Both of these models are prone to high rates of wear in some rear suspension components, such as the rear differential bushing. This is particularly apparent on vehicles that have travelled high kilometres, have high horsepower or vehicles towing loads regularly.

A tell-tale sign that this bushing is no longer performing as intended is hearing a clunking noise or feeling a jolt under acceleration or when shifting gears from drive to reverse. The primary function of the rear differential bushing is to provide a smooth and quiet transfer of power from the engine to the rear wheels of your vehicle under acceleration.

Should this issue go unresolved it may result in excessive wear on surrounding drive train and suspension components so it is wise and economical to act swiftly should you be experiencing any of these symptoms.

Your local Repco Authorised Service Centre Autotech Bunbury in Bunbury is experienced in diagnosing and fixing this problem. We can replace your worn rubber differential bushing with a highly durable Nolathane differential bushing specifically designed and manufactured to address this problem and return your vehicle back to its optimum performance.

So, if “clunking” goes with your Territory or Falcon, contact the team at Autotech Bunbury today.

It is fair to say that the Ford Territory and Falcon are two of the most popular vehicles on Australian roads. Both of these models are prone to high rates of wear in some rear suspension components, such as the rear differential bushing.

At Autotech Bunbury in  Bunbury we believe the transmission is an important part of your vehicle.

Without the transmission, your vehicle would not be able to move between gears. The transmission fluid allows you to do this smoothly and also protects the working parts inside your transmission. The transmission fluid doesn't diminish through use. Yet the level should still be checked periodically because if there is a leak, or the fluid level is low, it will harm the internal parts of your transmission.

Transmission fluid can become dirty over time with metal shavings and other particles which will shorten the life of your transmission. Replacing a transmission is a costly exercise and so checking the fluid and replacing it when necessary is a good investment in the long run.

At Autotech Bunbury we provide a full 65 Point Vehicle Condition Report upon request with every full car service - This includes a check of your transmission fluid and we will advise you if we think your fluid needs to be replaced or if a transmission service might be needed.

Call Autotech Bunbury for all your diesel 4WD and diesel passenger vehicle repairs, inspections and services. We are conveniently located in Bunbury.

A diesel engine can be more efficient, better for the environment and cheaper to run than its petrol-powered counterpart. However, it still needs regular servicing to keep it running at an ultimate level and to help make sure nothing goes wrong. 

Our technicians at Autotech Bunbury are fully qualified to service diesel SUV, AWD, 4WD and Passenger diesel vehicles. Contact us today.
