Is your 4wd feeling sluggish or not reaching its full
Potential? It could be a result of carbon build up in your intake system.

We had a 2014 Ford Ranger which was throwing a code for EGR position sensor. After some investigation and pulling off the actuator, we found that the EGR valve itself had been stuck on the open position.

After removing the EGR housing, we cleaned out the intake system which has been coated in carbon build up and installed the new EGR.

After cleaning out the restricted intake system, the full potential of the car was restored.

2012 MN triton came in for a few repairs.
With the warmer weather coming out, this customer noticed that the AC was not blowing cold air. After topping up the AC gas, it was once again blowing cold air.

We also noted that the original clutch with 230,000kms was starting to slip and have a high pedal. After removing the gearbox we put in a new clutch kit with a couple seals, a new mount and it was back on the road for the customer.
Safe to say he got what he paid for with this clutch.

Has been a busy week at the workshop. The boys have been pumping out the service work along with some other repairs.

Customer came in and had a concern about his ABS and Airbag light on. After further diagnosis we found that the fuse for the ABS motor supply had blown and the clock spring behind the steering wheel was faulty. After processing with repairs the car was once again safe for travel.

Also had a Mazda CX-3 in for a service and a knock sensor replacement.

A Toyota Camry in for a service today. Customer complained of a grinding noise while braking. Upon further inspection we found that the brake pads had gone metal to metal and that the wheel bearing had excessive play.

We replaced the wheel bearing, new front brake pads and machined the rotors along with the service. The customer was very pleased and now has a safe vehicle to drive on the road.

A good customer of ours with his brand new 2024 Ford Raptor dropped in today. His heavy towing noticeably sags the rear end of his Ute. He came to us wanting to install rear airbags to help with the heavy loads.

The customer wanted to use his factory overhead accessory panel to operate the functions of the airbags. All wired up and test, this Raptor is ready for some more serious tows

Thanks to Boss Suspension Systems for hooking us up with the kits.

Servicing your car on time is crucial. Not only for your engine health but your safety. Getting your vehicles safety check done on time can lead to serious injury if not done on time.

Luckily for these two customers they have gotten their services done on time. Doing a service includes a full underbody inspection and safety check. These customers definitely got what they paid for out of these brake pads.

Book your car in today before the summer holidays to make sure you’re safe on the road.

Customer had unfortunately snapped his timing belt going down the highway. Timing belts are a crucial part of engine operation and snapping them can lead to fatal damage. Luckily this Mitsubishi Triton didn’t draw the short straw.

We ended up taking the head off and discovering that it had bent all 8 exhaust valves. With no damage to the pistons we were able to service the head and source some new valves.

Slapped it all back together, and it runs like a dream.
