The Problem: |
Your wiper refills needs changing and/or you require new wiper blade assemblies. |
Consequences: |
SERIOUS and LIFE THREATENING. 95% of all driving decisions are based on VISION, if you can't see due to disrupted vision, you are likely to have a serious car accident. |
Solution: |
We will fit your car with new quality wiper blade assemblies. |
The Problem: |
The mileage indicates that your timing belt needs to be replaced. |
Consequences: |
SERIOUS. Timing belt failure can cause major internal engine damage. Fixing it before it is a problem is a lot cheaper than fixing it once it has failed. Also, a timing belt failure will leave you stranded. With timing belts, it's important to be proactive. |
Solution: |
We will replace your timing belt. Timing belt replacement is a complex and technical procedure. |
The Problem: |
One or more of your tyres need to be changed due to being worn or damaged. |
Consequences: |
SERIOUS and LIFE THREATENING. Tyres represent the only contact between your car and the road. Your safety in regards to acceleration, braking, steering and cornering are currently compromised because the small area of road contact (your tyres) are not in good condition. |
Solution: |
We will replace your tyre/s. Considering they carry the entire weight of your car, and keep you alive, they represent excellent value. |
The Problem: |
Your tyres are wearing out unevenly. |
Consequences: |
By uneven decreased wear you will need to replace particular tyres sooner. Also, unbalanced wheels will increase wear of your shock absorbers, struts, and other expensive steering and suspension components. |
Solution: |
We will examine your tyres and will rotate and balance them so that they maximise tread and suspension life. |
The Problem: |
Suspension bushes are wearing out. |
Consequences: |
SERIOUS. Worn bushes cause rapid tyre wear and steering that is loose or pulling. Worn bushes also negatively impact braking and overall safe handling of your vehicle. |
Solution: |
We will install replacement bushes that are stronger than the original rubber design. |
The Problem: |
You have worn shock absorbers. |
Consequences: |
SERIOUS. When shock absorbers begin to show excessive wear, they lose their ability to effectively stop the tyre from bouncing during different road conditions. If your tyre is bouncing it won't offer the same level of braking grip and handling capability as one that is maintaining constant contact with the road. |
Solution: |
We will fit your car with quality shock absorbers. |
Do You Know What Severe Conditions Means For Servicing Your Car ?
Sometimes driving conditions mean your vehicle may require additional servicing.
Severe Conditions are not all that uncommon. Especially on our Heavily Congested Brisbane Road network. It is estimated that we operate our vehicles 80% of the time under one of the above "severe conditions" !
Look carefully at your owner's handbook. Manufacturers recommend more frequent oil changes, around 5000 km or 3 Months if the vehicle is used under "severe conditions", to prevent sludge forming.
Typical city use is one of the operating conditions defined as "severe". Severe conditions are not all that uncommon, especially on our heavily congested Brisbane Road Network. It has been estimated that we operate our vehicles 80% of the time under "severe conditions"
Changing oil regularly is an essential part of a vehicle's maintenance schedule.
Don't neglect your engine's health !
The Problem: |
The fluid in the power steering reservoir has changed to a dark colour, which is an important indication that the power steering fluid needs to be flushed. |
Consequences: |
SERIOUS. The change in colouring is caused by fine metal particles suspended in the oil. These particles have already been pumped throughout the system, effectively becoming a grinding paste on any of the moving parts within the system. The abrasive action of these contaminants will damage seals, score shafts and bores, and foul the valve assemblies. Without attention, this can lead to a break down in the entire power steering, requiring expensive repairs to the power steering rack, box or pump. |
Solution: |
Mansfield Motors can flush your power steering system and remove contaminated oil with a powerful cleaner, which suspends and dissolves varnish and gum residue in the power steering system. Then we will replenish it with new high-tech power steering fluid. |
The Problem: |
Your pedal rubber is worn. |
Consequences: |
SERIOUS and LIFE THREATENING. Worn pedal rubbers can allow wet or dry feet to slip off (or under) the pedals, either creating an emergency situation or being unable to avoid a collision in an emergency. |
Solution: |
We will replace your worn out pedal rubbers. |
The Problem: |
Your car has a leak, which means vital lubricating fluid is escaping. |
Consequences: |
SERIOUS. A simple leak can completely ruin your engine, as well as other expensive engine ancillary items. Oil leaks do not go away by themselves, they get worse and create more damage as time goes on. It is very important to fix a leak as soon as it's discovered. To put it off will normally cost you more than fixing the leak itself. |
Solution: |
We will find and repair the component that is leaking. The cost will depend on the amount of damage to the components. |
