🥵 Car A/C Not Cold Enough? Here’s Why a Regas Might Not Be the Full Fix ❄️ READ BELOW / PH33009277

When your car’s air con starts blowing warm or just “not as cold as it used to,” it’s tempting to think it just needs more gas. But the truth is, without a proper diagnostic check, a simple regas might only be a short-term band-aid.

✅ What we check during an A/C service:
✅ System pressure test – to detect leaks or hidden faults
✅ Regas (replacing the refrigerant gas)
✅ Compressor, condenser & evaporator checks
✅ Cabin filter inspection/replacement
✅ Electrical & temperature testing for peak performance

⚠️ Why diagnostics matter:

Leaks mean your cold air won’t last long.

Low refrigerant can damage your compressor (a costly repair).

A full check keeps your A/C colder for longer, saving you money.

👉 Tip: If your A/C is weak, noisy, or smells musty, book a diagnostic & regas before summer hits. Fixing issues early means you’ll stay cool and avoid expensive breakdowns later.

What’s Included in a Logbook Service – And Why It Can Differ

READ BELLOW FOR ALL THE DETAILS

When you book in for a logbook service, you’re not just getting a standard “oil and filter change.” Each service is based on your manufacturer’s schedule, designed to keep your vehicle safe, reliable, and within warranty.

✅ What’s included can vary depending on:
✅ Service interval (e.g. 15,000km vs 60,000km – big difference in what’s required!)
✅ Make & model – every car brand has unique requirements.
✅ Age of the vehicle – older cars often need more checks and replacements.
✅ Driving conditions – city driving, towing, or long-distance use can change the recommendations.

✅ A logbook service may include:
✅ Oil & filter replacement
✅ Brake inspection & adjustments
✅ Fluid checks & top-ups (coolant, brake, transmission, power steering, washer fluid)
✅ Air & cabin filter replacement
✅ Tyre rotation & pressure adjustment
✅ Battery & charging system test
✅ Suspension & steering checks
✅ Safety inspection (lights, wipers, seatbelts, etc.)

✅ This is why service prices vary so much – sometimes it’s a quick inspection and oil change, other times it’s major component replacements (spark plugs, transmission fluid, timing belt, etc.).

⚠️ Most importantly: If your logbook services aren’t carried out on time, your manufacturer’s warranty can be voided – meaning you may not be covered if something goes wrong.

👉 Tip: Staying on top of logbook servicing keeps your car reliable, protects resale value, and makes sure your warranty stays valid.

💧 Leaking Rocker Cover Gasket? Don’t Ignore It! 💧

That small oil leak on top of your engine might seem harmless, but a faulty rocker cover gasket can lead to bigger (and more expensive) problems:

✅ Oil leaking onto hot engine parts can create a fire risk
✅ Oil loss leads to low lubrication and potential engine damage
✅ Oil on spark plugs or ignition coils can cause misfires & poor performance
✅ Messy engine bays attract dirt and grime build-up

The good news? Replacing a rocker cover gasket is usually a straightforward and cost-effective repair — especially compared to the damage it can prevent.

👉 If you’ve spotted oil stains on your driveway or noticed a burning oil smell, it’s time to get it checked. 🚗🔧

Save Money Without Sacrificing Safety 🛠

Did you know it’s often more cost-efficient to machine your brake rotors rather than replace them?

- Restores a smooth braking surface
- Eliminates vibrations & squeaks
- Extends the life of your existing rotors
- More budget-friendly than buying new ones

Of course, if your rotors are too worn or below minimum thickness, replacement is the safest option — but in many cases, machining can save you money while keeping your brakes performing like new.
