As winter months approach, the significance of having a fully functional heating system in your vehicle cannot be overstressed. 

The heating system not only provides warmth and comfort but also plays a critical role in safety by reducing fog or ice on the windshield. Understanding the complexities and functionalities of vehicle heating systems can help in appreciating the services offered by experts like those at Cranbourne Auto Electrical and Mechanical

Vehicle heating systems typically function by utilising the excess heat produced by the engine, redirecting it inside the cabin to provide warmth.

However, this seemingly simple process involves various components including the heater core, thermostat, blower fan, and coolant, all working in harmony. Problems in any part of this system can lead to inefficiencies or complete failure of the heating system, resulting in uncomfortable and potentially unsafe driving conditions.

Servicing and repairing a vehicle's heating system requires a comprehensive approach, beginning with diagnosing the exact issue. This might range from flushing the heater core, repairing or replacing a malfunctioning thermostat, to fixing electrical issues in the blower fan system. 

Technicians at Cranbourne Auto Electrical and Mechanical possess the expertise and equipment to accurately diagnose these problems and provide efficient solutions. Regular maintenance checks are also part of our service offering, ensuring each component of the heating system functions optimally and identifying potential issues before they escalate.

The importance of maintaining a vehicle's heating system for both comfort and safety cannot be overstated. Given the complexities involved in its operation, consulting specialists like our Cranbourne's workshop specialists have the technical know-how and experience to ensure that your vehicle’s heating system operates efficiently and reliably, ensuring your comfort and safety throughout the colder months. 

Trusting your vehicle to Cranbourne Auto Electrical and Mechanical's care can save you time and money in the long run by preventing costly breakdowns and repairs.

Safe Winter Driving Tips from Cranbourne Auto Electrical and Mechanical

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 Cranbourne Auto Electrical and Mechanical, your trusted local mechanic in Cranbourne.

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 Cranbourne Auto Electrical and Mechanical in Cranbourne 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 Cranbourne Auto Electrical and Mechanical today.

At Cranbourne Auto Electrical and Mechanical in  Cranbourne 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 Cranbourne Auto Electrical and Mechanical 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.
