Logbook Servicing

Whenever you purchase a new vehicle, the manufacturer provides you with a warranty that covers the cost of any parts failures. This warranty is only valid, however, if you have your vehicle regularly serviced by a certified mechanic, who records and stamps these services in your vehicle’s logbook.

Here at Wil’s Automotive, our skilled mechanics are fully certified to provide logbook servicing for all:

• Petrol vehicles
• Diesel vehicles
• LPG vehicles

Roadworthies and other Inspections

When you’re planning on selling or otherwise transferring ownership of a vehicle, you must first acquire a roadworthy certificate. The roadworthy certificate is issued by a licensed tester, after a thorough inspection that ensures the vehicle meets the safety requirements to be legally driven on Victorian roads.

If you’re planning on buying a secondhand vehicle, we would recommend bringing it in for an inspection. It ensures that you know exactly what you’re buying, and helps you avoid any nasty surprises.

When you’re planning a long road trip, or a camping trip, we would recommend a pre-trip inspection, as it’s much better to find a flaw in your vehicle in a mechanic’s workshop, rather than out in the wilderness.

Brakes

Your brakes are the most important safety feature your vehicle has. While other safety systems, like airbags, only mitigate the severity the of an accident, whereas brakes, in addition to mitigation, can act preventatively as well, and the condition of your brakes can mean the difference between an accident and an emergency stop.

Your brakes suffer an astonishing amount of wear, routinely bringing over a tonne of metal to a complete stop multiple times a day. For this reason, we agree with brake manufacturers that you should have your brakes checked at least once a year.

Wil’s Automotive’s expert technicians can help you with:

• Brake component replacement
• Brake machining
• Brake hose repairs
• Brake restorations

Steering & Suspension

Faults and flaws in your steering and suspension affect handling and ride comfort causing play in the steering wheel and body lean through corners. Your suspension is also responsible for maximizing the grip that your tyres exert on the road surface, so a poor suspension will also increase your stopping distance.

Here at Wil’s Automotive, our skillful mechanics can provide the following services:

• Shock absorbers, springs and struts
• Wheel balancing
• Bushing replacement
• Power steering repairs and replacement
• Lift kits and 4WD upgrades

Clutch & Transmission

As part of the assemblage that transfers power from the engine to the wheels, the clutch and transmission are both extremely intricate pieces of machinery. Due to their sophisticated nature, even minor flaws can result in costly repairs.

Cooling systems

A malfunctioning cooling system affects power output, fuel efficiency, and engine lifespan, as leaking coolant and overheating damages the engine block.
