Keeping Your Car on the Road
Whether your car needs a routine service, has developed a problem or simply doesn’t feel quite right, we can help.
We service and repair most makes and models, including older vehicles. We’ll explain what needs attention, what can wait and the options available before you spend money.
Car Servicing
Regular servicing is one of the best ways to keep your car reliable and avoid expensive problems later.
Drive Safe Service provides logbook and general servicing for cars, SUVs, utes and light commercial vehicles using quality oils, filters and replacement parts.
We can service newer vehicles to manufacturer requirements as well as older vehicles where sensible preventative maintenance becomes increasingly important.
Car servicing can include:
Manufacturer scheduled servicing • Oil and filter changes • Fluid checks • Brake inspection • Steering and suspension inspection • Battery and charging checks • Safety checks • Preventative maintenance
Mechanical Repairs
If something doesn’t sound, feel or operate the way it should, we’ll help identify the problem before replacing parts unnecessarily.
From everyday mechanical repairs through to more involved jobs, our approach is to diagnose the problem properly, explain your options and recommend a repair that makes sense for the car.
Mechanical repairs include:
Cooling systems • Belts and hoses • Engine components • Water pumps • Alternators and starter motors • Bearings • Engine mounts • General mechanical repairs
Brakes
Good brakes are essential, but a brake problem doesn’t automatically mean everything needs replacing.
We inspect the braking system and recommend what’s actually required. Drive Safe Service can supply and fit brake pads, rotors, shoes, drums, hydraulics and hoses.
We also have Pro-Cut on-car brake machining equipment, allowing us to machine brake discs on the vehicle where appropriate.
Diagnostics
Modern diagnostic equipment can tell you where to start looking — experience helps determine what’s actually wrong.
Drive Safe Service combines computer diagnostic scanning with hands-on mechanical diagnosis to identify faults and avoid replacing components simply because a fault code appeared.
We can investigate:
Warning lights • Engine management faults • Starting problems • Poor running • Electrical and sensor faults • Intermittent problems
Wheel Alignment
Incorrect wheel alignment can cause uneven tyre wear, poor handling and make your car less pleasant to drive.
Drive Safe Service uses a professional John Bean wheel alignment system to accurately measure and adjust vehicle alignment.
A proper alignment can improve steering, handling and tyre life — particularly after suspension or steering repairs.
Suspension & Steering
Worn suspension and steering components can affect handling, braking, tyre wear and ride comfort.
If your car is pulling, wandering, bouncing, making knocking noises or wearing tyres unevenly, we can inspect the suspension and steering system and identify the cause.
We inspect and repair:
Shock absorbers and struts • Springs • Bushes • Ball joints • Tie rods • Steering components • Wheel bearings • Suspension components
Timing Belts & Timing Chains
A failed timing belt can cause serious engine damage, so replacing it at the manufacturer’s recommended interval is important.
Drive Safe Service can inspect and replace timing belts and related components on applicable vehicles.
If you’re unsure when your timing belt was last replaced, talk to us and we’ll help determine what’s required.
For timing-chain vehicles, unusual engine noises, warning lights or timing-related fault codes should also be investigated rather than ignored.
