Modern radiator coolants not only protect your car from overheating, or the fluid from freezing, they also protect the radiator system from corrosion. Wamuran Driveway in Wamuran are very knowledgeable and experienced in looking after these systems.  It is recommended that you exchange your radiator coolant fluid every two years or 40,000 km's whichever comes first. However the size of the engine, the climate in your area, the age of your current coolant, and the total miles that have been driven can all affect the need to replace the coolant in your radiator. Knowing when to replenish your radiator fluid isn't always easy - obviously, when it has gone a dirty brown colour it's a sign it probably needs to be flushed and replaced - however even fresh-looking coolant could have lost its corrosion protection properties and without measuring its reserve alkalinity there's no signal that it is no longer protecting your vehicle components, and it could even be doing more damage than good. Maintaining good coolant means your radiator system will be much better protected from corrosion and will have a longer life span, it will help prevent you from having to replace expensive engine components. At Wamuran Driveway in Wamuran at your request, we will perform a full 65 Point Vehicle Inspection report for free as part of any minor, major or log book service. Part of this inspection includes checking the level and condition of coolant in your system and the written report will advise you if we feel a radiator flush, fluid replacement or any repairs are required to maintain the performance of your vehicle.

Even if it looks clean, your coolant still might need replacing!

Faulty and low charge batteries are to be avoided. Don't wait till you're stranded somewhere on the side of the road, hoping for a jump start. It is easy to have your car, bike, truck battery tested or charged up at Wamuran Driveway in Wamuran.  Often issues occur because we have all reduced how much we drive or decided to only rely on one car (as petrol prices skyrocket!) and have left the other in the garage. But did you know that batteries can still discharge even when your car isn't in use? - ask Wamuran Driveway about a battery test today!  Our technicians do a battery load test as part of the 65 Point Vehicle Inspection Report that comes free with every car service. If you have concerns, we can do a stand-alone battery test and inspection right here in Wamuran. Car Battery FAQ How do I know if my battery is getting flat or low? The most obvious sign of a flat battery is when your car won't start, but modern motor vehicles can show symptoms like non-essential functions not operating correctly - things like idle stop-start function not working, or the car's air-conditioning not working effectively.
Other signs you might need a new car battery include: Vehicle is slow to start Engine won't start Dash Lights work, but engine won't start Constantly needing a jump start Film or corrosion on the battery Cracked swollen or leaky battery Rotten egg smell under the hood Do I need a new car battery? The most obvious sign of a flat battery is when your car won't start. Modern motor vehicles can show symptoms like the idle stop-start not working or the car's air-conditioning not working to full capacity.

Other signs include cracked, dirty or leaky batteries, a rotten egg smell under the hood of your car, or regularly needing a jump start or recharge. The best way to know if you need a new battery is to get a car battery test at {{{businessName}}} Does a flat battery use more fuel? Yes! When your car battery is running flat, the alternator works harder to recharge the battery. This added load on the engine means it burns more fuel. Where can I buy a new car battery? Come in and see us! As a Repco Authorised Service Centre, {{{businessName}}} have access to the highest quality batteries to suit most vehicles. Who can test my car battery? {{{businessName}}} can do a battery load test. Phone us or visit the workshop today. Why choose {{{businessName}}} for a battery test? If you have concerns about your vehicle's performance, it is wise to get your battery tested at a full-service workshop like {{{businessName}}} rather than at a parts store. That's because we take into consideration the whole vehicle and can diagnose any deeper issues. There is nothing worse than replacing your car battery only to find the problem actually lies elsewhere… except maybe being told your battery test is fine with no explanation for your ongoing issues! Can my car battery be recharged? Yes, in fact the battery is being recharged by the alternator in your car whenever the engine is running. Sometimes this fix isn't enough, and your battery requires an external recharge. It's best to ask the professionals like our team at {{{businessName}}} about this, as you could void the battery warranty by recharging it yourself. Sometimes external recharging is not the best option because every battery eventually reaches a point in its life where replacement is the only answer to avoid unexpected breakdowns. Can I fit my battery myself? The short answer is yes...But! Modern vehicles are “computers on wheels”, so if you decide to DIY you must follow proper installation procedures to avoid damaging the ECM (Engine Control Module) and TCM (Transmission Control Module). Plus, if the battery gets incorrectly installed, items like the radio, the navigation system and security codes may need to be professionally reset. Talk to {{{businessName}}} today. We can recommend the right battery for your needs and install it for you. 

Ever replaced your battery only to find your car problem wasn't fixed? Don't be left feeling flat, get your battery tested at a full service workshop.

As the Christmas season approaches, there's excitement in the air and the promise of road trips and family visits. Before you hit the open road, it's essential to ensure your car is in top-notch condition to avoid any unexpected breakdowns during your holiday travels. At Wamuran Driveway, we understand the importance of getting your vehicle ready for the festive season, and we're here to help you do just that. At Wamuran Driveway, we understand the importance of getting your vehicle ready for the festive season, and we're here to help you do just that. Beat the Christmas Rush: Book Early One of the first things to consider is that many car workshops experience a surge in demand as the Christmas holidays draw near. Additionally, most workshops, including ours, close over the Christmas period. Booking your car service early ensures you can secure a convenient appointment time, avoid last-minute rushes, and drive into the holiday season with confidence. The Australian Summer: Keep Cool On The Road The Australian summer is known for its intense heat, making a fully functional air conditioning system a must for any road trip. Regular car service includes checking and maintaining the air conditioning system to ensure it performs efficiently when the mercury rises. This is not just about comfort; it's about safety. A well-serviced air conditioner prevents the risk of overheating, keeps you alert on long drives, and ensures a pleasant journey for all passengers. Wamuran Driveway care about the environment and have Arctick Authorisation (AU34740) to reliably and responsibly conduct vehicle air conditioning regas, repair, servicing and inspection. Regular Service: Ensuring Safety and Reliability Regular servicing of your vehicle encompasses a variety of basic mechanical tasks that are crucial for safe and reliable driving. Here are some key areas that are typically addressed during a service: 1. Brake Inspection and Maintenance
Brakes are a vital safety component of your vehicle. Ensuring they are in good working condition is essential, especially for long trips. During a service, the brake pads, rotors, and fluid are checked and replaced if necessary to ensure optimum braking performance. 2. Tyre Check and Rotation
Tyres are your car's contact with the road. Regular inspection and rotation help to ensure even wear, prolonging their life and maintaining grip and stability. This is crucial for handling Australia's diverse road conditions during the Christmas season. 3. Oil and Fluid Levels
Checking and topping up all essential fluids, such as engine oil, coolant, brake fluid, and windshield washer fluid, keeps your car running smoothly. Fresh oil ensures the engine operates efficiently and reduces the risk of overheating. 4. Battery Health
A car battery can be put under stress with the increased use of electronic devices during the holidays. Regular service checks the battery's charge and overall health, minimising the risk of a breakdown. 5. Lights and Wipers
Visibility is crucial for safe driving. Service includes checking and replacing worn-out wiper blades and ensuring all lights are functioning correctly, allowing you to navigate safely through different weather conditions.

Diesel engines have become increasingly popular in passenger vehicles, offering a range of benefits including higher fuel efficiency, lower emissions, and reduced running costs compared to petrol engines. However, like all engines, diesel engines require regular servicing and maintenance to perform at their best. In this article, we will discuss the importance of diesel engine service and maintenance, and how Wamuran Driveway in Wamuran can help keep your diesel vehicle in top condition. Benefits of Diesel Engines Diesel engines are renowned for their efficiency and durability. They tend to provide better fuel economy, which means fewer trips to the fuel station and lower costs over time. Additionally, modern diesel engines produce less CO2, making them a more environmentally friendly option. Despite these advantages, diesel engines require consistent care to maintain their benefits and longevity. The Necessity of Regular Servicing Regular servicing of a diesel engine is crucial for several reasons. Firstly, it ensures that the engine runs efficiently and reliably. During a service, vital components such as air, fuel, and oil filters are inspected and replaced if necessary. These filters play a crucial role in protecting the engine from contaminants that could cause damage and reduce performance. Additionally, diesel engines can suffer from the build-up of carbon deposits. Oil and exhaust gases can create sticky black carbon deposits that harden over time. These deposits can block air intakes and disrupt the air-fuel ratio, leading to inefficient engine performance and potentially costly repairs. Regular servicing helps to identify and address these issues before they escalate. Impact of Short Trips If you frequently take short trips in your diesel vehicle, it's even more important to keep up with regular maintenance. Short trips prevent the engine from reaching its optimal operating temperature, leading to an increased build-up of carbon deposits and other contaminants. This can exacerbate the issues mentioned above, making regular servicing even more essential. Comprehensive Diesel Engine Services in Wamuran At Wamuran Driveway, we offer comprehensive servicing for all types of diesel vehicles, including SUVs, AWDs, 4WDs, and passenger vehicles. Our skilled technicians are fully qualified and have a wealth of experience in diesel engine maintenance and repairs. We understand the unique needs of diesel engines and provide meticulous service to ensure your vehicle remains in peak condition. Our services include thorough inspections, replacement of filters, oil changes, and cleaning of carbon deposits. By entrusting your diesel vehicle to us, you can drive with confidence knowing that your engine is operating efficiently and reliably. By prioritising regular maintenance, you can ensure your diesel vehicle continues to offer the benefits of efficiency, environmental friendliness, and cost savings for many years to come. Don't wait until a minor issue becomes a major problem. Regular servicing is key to maintaining the performance and longevity of your diesel engine. Visit Wamuran Driveway in Wamuran for expert diesel engine service and maintenance. Our friendly team is ready to help you keep your vehicle running smoothly...
