Did you know that you get to decide where your vehicle is serviced, maintained and repaired?

Looking for bargains in the end of year car sales or are looking to get your new car serviced for the holidays? Here is some sound advice from Highton Automotive Services in Highton.

Acquiring a new car is one of the biggest investments a lot of people make, so it is common sense to do whatever you can to take care of it. Caring for your new car goes beyond detailing the interior and keeping it sparkling with a loving weekly wash, however.

There are a few other things to consider, such as who is the best choice to service your car.

Highton Automotive Services will ensure your car is serviced by our qualified professional, to the manufacturers requirements, using high quality parts from a reputable supplier and fluids which meet the manufacturers specifications. This is not just to look after your new car, but because if these four requirements are met you will also preserve the manufacturers warranty.

Were you aware of the fact that you get to decide the best workshop to service your new car without voiding either the manufacturers warranty or your rights under the Consumer Guarantee

Your Car - Your Choice : Highton Automotive Services

Car dealers cannot force you to take the vehicle back to the dealer where you originally got it for service or repairs. Provided the work is implemented to the manufacturers specifications by a suitably skilled person and uses acceptable quality parts and fluids, the warranty stands. You have the right to choose who services your car.

With Repco Authorised Service you can tick all the boxes. Every Highton Automotive Services mechanic is fully qualified and Auto-Tech trained, giving them access to Australia's leading provider of automotive technical information and training. This means Highton Automotive Services mechanics are kept fully up to date with the latest in automotive service techniques and are able to service your new car without voiding the warranty.

Repco branded parts & products are manufactured to stringent Repco quality standards, and are covered by the Repco Nationwide Warranty, giving you added protection. Highton Automotive Services will also only ever use fluids and lubricants that meet the specifications of the original car manufacturer.

If you already own a new car or are thinking of purchasing one, make sure you clearly understand where your statutory rights begin and end.

Make sure you are aware of the separation between statutory, manufacturer and extended warranties to ensure you make the right selection when it comes to servicing your new car. You are automatically covered by a statutory warranty, also known as a Consumer Guarantee, under Australian Consumer Law (ACL) and this statutory protection can never be over-ridden by manufacturer or express warranties (which are offered by the car maker and car dealer respectively).

A lack of disclosure requirements on car dealers at the point of sale regarding these contracts can easily lead the consumer into making a choice to be bound by a long term contract without access to all of the details needed to make a properly informed decision.

So when purchasing your new vehicle, be on guard for new car dealers who may try to push the addition of “express” or “extended” warranties, often for free. More often than not these ‘extra' warranties may include quite prohibitive restrictions or provisions, often in a way that is not immediately understood. Many times these additional extras provide little or no additional benefits not already addressed by the consumer's basic statutory rights and can tie the unwary buyer into a long term agreement with the dealership selling the car.

Such additional extras are very unlikely to make much mention of the potential negative aspects involved with taking a new car back to the dealer for service or repair. This includes what sort of travel time you may need to get your car serviced or longer waiting times due to fewer available service locations or mechanics.

Premier Battery Testing & Replacement at Highton Automotive Services

Highton Automotive Services offer our valued clients Free Battery Testing. Drop in if you have any concerns and we will test your battery for you. With Winter around the corner now is the best time to have a Battery Check done.

 A vehicle’s battery is akin to its lifeblood, instrumental in starting your engine and keeping all electronic components alive. For various types of vehicles, be it sleek saloons, robust 4x4s, or utilitarian light goods vehicles, the standard life expectancy of a car battery spans three to five years. This duration can be influenced by an array of aspects, including the environmental conditions, the frequency of use, and the level of maintenance it receives.

 Identifying the need for a battery replacement at the right time and undergoing routine battery checks are critical measures to circumvent unforeseen vehicle malfunctions and to guarantee the long-term health of your car.

Key Indicators Signaling Your Car Battery Requires Replacement

 Awareness of several warning signs can alert you that it's time to consider replacing your car battery:

1. Slow Engine Crank: Starting the vehicle becomes a cumbersome process, with the engine taking an abnormally long period to start. A slow engine crank can be particularly problematic in emergencies when quick vehicle startup is essential.

2. Check Engine Light: This warning light may activate on your dashboard if the battery is weak, signaling that an inspection is due. Ignoring this could lead to sudden vehicle power loss.

3. Low Battery Fluid Level: The translucent section of your battery casing allows for easy monitoring of its fluid level. A drop below the energy-conducting lead plates necessitates a battery and charging system evaluation. Lower fluid levels can lead to reduced battery efficacy and longevity.

4. Swelling Battery Case: A bloated or swollen battery casing is indicative of exposure to excessive heat and suggests an impending failure. This deformation can cause internal short circuits, rendering the battery unsafe.

5. Age: Batteries over three years old should be subjected to periodic tests to gauge their condition. Older batteries are more susceptible to failing in cold weather, leading to increased chances of being stranded.

Ensuring Peak Battery Performance at Highton Automotive Services

 Understanding the paramount significance of a car battery, Highton Automotive Services integrates battery inspections into every standard service. Here is our approach:

Visual Inspection: Our initial step is a visual inspection for wear, corrosion, or damage signs, indicating a potentially compromised battery.

Voltage Test: We employ cutting-edge tools for voltage testing, confirming that the battery’s output aligns perfectly with your vehicle's specifications.

Load Test: By conducting a load test, we assess the battery’s ability to sustain charge when in use, simulating real-life conditions such as starting the car and operating various accessories to detect weakening signs.

Charging System Check: Our final phase involves verifying the vehicle's charging system functionality, ensuring it adequately charges the battery without causing additional issues.

 Should a battery replacement be necessary, Highton Automotive Services offers a range of premium batteries that match your vehicle’s type and usage needs. We stock Century Batteries for all types of Passenger vehicles including Stop Start Batteries in our workshop, for your convenience. 

 By actively monitoring for failing battery indicators and opting for periodic checks, such as your regular log book service performed at Highton Automotive Services, vehicle owners can avoid the hassle of unexpected breakdowns. Prioritising timely battery replacements and choosing superior quality batteries is crucial for maintaining your vehicle in prime running condition.

Working brakes save lives but brake repairs are what many people tend to consider when it comes to thinking about their brakes and being safe on the roads. Focusing on brake maintenance is far more vital to passenger safety. 

Maintaining your brakes means not waiting until they need repairs but having them checked on a regular basis to help avoid any unseen or unexpected problems which might impact your ability to brake safely and efficiently should the need arise. 

Regular brake maintenance means that you can relax knowing that your brakes will be in good working order when you need them the most; in an emergency situation!

When it comes to Brake Maintenance, you should never take a risk. If you're not sure if your brake maintenance is 100% - call a professional like Highton Automotive Services without delay.

Brake fluid provides the pressure needed by the brake pads to stop your car. It also helps prolong the lifespan of your various brake components by helping to prevent corrosion. Most people know that it is imperative to keep the brake fluid level topped up, but did you know that you should also have the entire system flushed regularly to replace old brake fluid and prevent excessive moisture in the fluid?

Checking your brake fluid regularly yourself is good common sense, but don't rely on it's appearance to indicate the actual condition of the fluid. Simply because it looks clean doesn't mean it's actually in good condition. Moisture can accumulate in the brake fluid and it's not always noticeable in a visual inspection. Moisture in the fluid increases the chance the fluid will boil, which could result in a loss of braking pressure. A visual inspection is not sufficient to identify excess moisture in your brake fluid.

A brake fluid flush can be done as part of a scheduled service - but sometimes we may suggest you need one outside of a regular schedule if we feel it's necessary. We are always happy to discuss the reasons why with you.

Your brake pads are a vital part of your braking system and they are a part that you should monitor on a regular basis. Brake pads compress against your brake rotors (using the pressure of the brake fluid) to create friction and this friction makes your car stop. Unfortunately the amount of heat generated when stopping a significant mass (the vehicle) also wears down the brake pads over time. Regular inspection and/or replacement of your brake pads is an integral part of good brake maintenance practices.

Brake Pads can last for anywhere between 15,000 to 70,000 km's. This changes according to a number of reasons such as; driving conditions and style, regular heavy loads. If your brake pads are wearing out ahead of time your mechanic might advise using a heat resistant or heavier duty brake pad more suited to your vehicle.

Brakes that squeal can be a warning that your brake pads are wearing out. Many good quality brake pads have a small metal piece embedded in them designed to purposely scratch on the disc when your brake pads are degraded, causing that high pitch noise. However, it's not advised to wait until you hear noises to get your pads assessed, we recommend having your brakes inspected at every service.

It is important to remember that noisy brakes are not only caused by normal wear and any unusual noises anywhere in your car should always be investigated by a qualified professional mechanic.

At Highton Automotive Services we offer a free 65 Point Vehicle Inspection Report with every car service. As part of our Vehicle Inspection Report we inspect the brake pads for wear and let you know if they require replacing. We can also recommend the right pad for your local conditions and driving style.

Highton Automotive Services are qualified to perform a wide range of brake services and repairs using quality parts, all covered by our nationwide warranty;

At Highton Automotive Services we offer a full 65 Point Vehicle Inspection report, upon request, with every full car service which includes a written review of your brake system and more.

Safe-T-Stop Brake Testing - Why stop at a road test?

Differential bushings could be the issue if they are aged, worn or cracked.  They control movement in the joints, absorb road bumps and reduce vibrations and noise while driving or reversing. These are one of many automotive issue we can handle at Highton Automotive Services, your trusted local mechanic in Highton.

It is fair to say that the Ford Territory and Falcon are two of the most popular vehicles on Australian roads. Both of these models are prone to high rates of wear in some rear suspension components, such as the rear differential bushing. This is particularly apparent on vehicles that have travelled high kilometres, have high horsepower or vehicles towing loads regularly.

A tell-tale sign that this bushing is no longer performing as intended is hearing a clunking noise or feeling a jolt under acceleration or when shifting gears from drive to reverse. The primary function of the rear differential bushing is to provide a smooth and quiet transfer of power from the engine to the rear wheels of your vehicle under acceleration.

Should this issue go unresolved it may result in excessive wear on surrounding drive train and suspension components so it is wise and economical to act swiftly should you be experiencing any of these symptoms.

Your local Repco Authorised Service Centre Highton Automotive Services in Highton is experienced in diagnosing and fixing this problem. We can replace your worn rubber differential bushing with a highly durable Nolathane differential bushing specifically designed and manufactured to address this problem and return your vehicle back to its optimum performance.

So, if “clunking” goes with your Territory or Falcon, contact the team at Highton Automotive Services today.

It is fair to say that the Ford Territory and Falcon are two of the most popular vehicles on Australian roads. Both of these models are prone to high rates of wear in some rear suspension components, such as the rear differential bushing.

At Highton Automotive Services in  Highton we believe the transmission is an important part of your vehicle.

Without the transmission, your vehicle would not be able to move between gears. The transmission fluid allows you to do this smoothly and also protects the working parts inside your transmission. The transmission fluid doesn't diminish through use. Yet the level should still be checked periodically because if there is a leak, or the fluid level is low, it will harm the internal parts of your transmission.

Transmission fluid can become dirty over time with metal shavings and other particles which will shorten the life of your transmission. Replacing a transmission is a costly exercise and so checking the fluid and replacing it when necessary is a good investment in the long run.

At Highton Automotive Services we provide a full 65 Point Vehicle Condition Report upon request with every full car service - This includes a check of your transmission fluid and we will advise you if we think your fluid needs to be replaced or if a transmission service might be needed.
