Logbook Servicing

Whenever you purchase a new vehicle, the manufacturer provides you with a warranty that covers the cost of parts failure. This warranty is voided, however, if you do not have your vehicle regularly serviced by a certified mechanic, who records and stamps these services in your vehicle’s logbook.

Here at West Coast Mechanics our mechanics are fully qualified to provide logbook services for all:

• Petrol passenger vehicles
• Diesel passenger vehicles
• Light Commercial vehicles

Brake Repair

Your brakes are the most important safety feature your vehicle has. Unlike other safety systems, your brakes can act preventatively, and well-maintained brakes are often the difference between an accident and an emergency stop.

Your brakes suffer a surprising amount of wear, routinely bringing a tonne of metal to a complete stop several times a day! For this reason we agree with brake manufacturers that you should have your brakes checked at least once a year.

West Coast Mechanics’ skilled technicians can provide the following brake services:

• Brake component machining
• Brake component replacement
• Brake hose repairs
• Brake restorations

If you haven’t had your brakes checked in a while, talk to us today!

Steering & Suspension

Faults in your vehicle’s steering and suspension affect handling and ride comfort, causing play in the steering wheel and body roll through corners. Your suspension also maximises the grip that your tyres exert on the road surface, so a poor suspension will also increase your stopping distance.

Here at West Coast Mechanics we can help you with:

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

If you’ve been having trouble with your steering or your suspension, contact us today!

Clutch & Transmission

As part of the machinery that transfers power from the engine to the wheels, the clutch and transmission are comprised of some of the most intricate and precise machinery in your vehicle. Due to the sophisticated nature of this machinery, even minor flaws can quickly proliferate into very costly repairs.

If you’re having trouble changing gears, hear a grinding noise when you do, or notice a burning smell coming from under the bonnet after a drive, you may have an issue with your vehicle’s drivetrain.

West Coast Mechanics’ expert technicians can repair clutches and repair and service automatic and manual transmissions.

If you’ve noticed any of the warning signs mentioned above, get in touch today!

Radiators & Cooling Systems

If your cooling system is malfunctioning, it can cause a multitude of problems, from reduced fuel effiency and engine power to virtually irreparable engine damage if it is ignored for long enough. The cost of repairing a neglected cooling system is comparable to purchasing a second-hand car!

Here at West Coast Mechanics, our talented mechanics can provide:

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

Save yourself a lot of grief and if you notice your vehicle is running hot, or leaking coolant, talk to us today!

Diagnostics & Auto Electrical

As modern vehicles have increased in complexity, the auto electrical network has taken on more and more functionality. The auto electrical network handles everything from playing music and monitoring fuel consumption to handling engine ignition, assisting with braking and gear changing and even putting your vehicle into limp mode pre-emptively if a serious flaw is detected, to prevent permanent damage.

West Coast Mechanics’ skilled auto electricians can help you with:

• Full diagnostics
• SRS repairs
• Body electrics repairs
• ABS, Traction and stability control repairs

If your check engine light is staring up at you from the dash, contact us today!

Tyres & Wheels

The condition of your tyres is the deciding factor in traction and handling, especially during wet weather, where the treads of the tyre act as channels to divert the water away from the contact patches and road surface. Your tyres are designed with built-in redundancies that allow your tyre to continue to provide acceptable grip. However, these designs are rendered useless if your wheels are misaligned, creating uneven wear in the tyres.

Here at West Coast Mechanics we can help you with:

• Tyres from major brands for all makes and models
• Wheel alignments
• Tyre fitting
• Tyre balancing

If your tyres are looking a bit bald, get in touch today!
