When it comes to the smoothness of your ride and the overall safety of your vehicle, the suspension system plays a pivotal role. It's responsible for minimising the impact of various road surfaces and ensuring that the wheels remain in contact with the road, providing you with better control.  If you're in Rowville and notice your car isn’t driving as smoothly as it should, or if you hear unusual noises when going over bumps, it might be time to have your suspension checked.  At Rowville Auto, we specialise in inspecting and repairing all components of your suspension system, including struts, shock absorbers, ball joints, control arms, and springs. Understanding Suspension Components and Potential Problems 1. Struts:
Struts are a structural part of the suspension system, integrating coil springs with a shock absorber. Struts are essential for absorbing impacts from road irregularities, contributing to a smooth ride. Over time, struts can become worn or damaged, leading to a decrease in ride quality, uneven tyre wear, and reduced braking efficiency.  2. Shock Absorbers:
Shock absorbers help control the impact and rebound movement of your vehicle's springs and suspension, ensuring the tyres stay in contact with the road. Worn shock absorbers can lead to increased stopping distances, swaying during turns, and a general decline in ride comfort and vehicle stability. 3. Ball Joints:
Ball joints act as pivot points between the wheel hubs and suspension and are critical for smooth steering. Wear and tear over time can result in looseness in the steering, clunking noises, and uneven tyre wear. Severe wear could potentially lead to the ball joint breaking, resulting in loss of control of the vehicle. 4. Control Arms:
These components link the suspension system to the chassis and manage the motion of the wheels so that it's in harmony with the body of the car. Bushings and ball joints are part of this assembly and can wear out or fail, leading to reduced handling and vehicle stability, accompanied by noises such as banging or clunking when driving over bumps. 5. Springs:
Springs support the weight of your vehicle, absorb bumps on the road, and help maintain vehicle height and proper wheel alignment. Over time, springs can weaken or break, leading to a sagging appearance, a rough ride, or the car leaning to one side.

Suspension Repairs: Ensuring a Smooth and Safe Ride in Rowville

Your vehicle’s tyres are fundamental to maintaining a secure connection with the road, greatly affecting both safety and braking efficiency. At Rowville Auto in Rowville, we offer specialised tyre maintenance services to ensure your vehicle remains in top condition. Routine Tyre and Wheel Services Regular car maintenance is essential not just for a smooth ride but also for necessary tyre evaluations. At Rowville Auto, our seasoned mechanics can identify potential tyre problems, carry out wheel alignments, and balance your tyres. These affordable services significantly enhance your driving pleasure and ensure your vehicle’s safety. Expert Tyre Examination Although you can perform basic tyre checks yourself, the professionals at Rowville Auto provide thorough inspections. Our team scrutinises both the interior and exterior conditions of your tyres, confirming they adhere to manufacturer and legal requirements. We also identify issues related to wheel alignment, tyre balance, and related systems such as brakes and suspension. Timing for Tyre Replacement Tyres will wear down over time, with factors like frequent braking, high-speed travel, and uneven road surfaces speeding up this process. The tread depth is a vital factor for replacement; if it nears 1.6mm, it’s time to think about new tyres. Proper tread depth ensures optimal grip, efficient water dispersal, and peak control, particularly in rainy conditions. Typically, tyres last between six and ten years, contingent on maintenance and driving habits. The Importance of Tyre Pressure Keeping your tyre pressure at the recommended levels is crucial for fuel efficiency and tyre longevity. Incorrect pressure may lead to uneven wear and affect how your vehicle handles and its safety. Regular pressure checks ensure consistent performance and prolong tyre life. Frequent Tyre Inspections and Rotation Routine tyre checks are vital. Inspect for bald patches, cuts, and trapped debris. Professional inspections at Rowville Auto can uncover concealed issues. Additionally, rotating your tyres every 8,000 to 10,000 km helps guarantee even wear, improving tyre life and vehicle efficiency. Wheel Alignment and Balancing Regular wheel alignment and balancing are key for avoiding early tyre wear, enhancing vehicle manoeuvrability, and boosting fuel economy. These services reduce vibrations and promote uniform tyre wear, offering a smoother, safer ride. For comprehensive tyre care and professional advice, rely on Rowville Auto in Rowville. Schedule your tyre and wheel services with us today to ensure your vehicle’s safety and performance.

Vital Tyre Maintenance Advice

Keep your cool, without global warming. A proactive car air conditioning approach to protecting our environment.  As Australia begins phasing down HFC use (from January 2018), many new vehicle manufacturers may be switching to new air conditioning systems using the more environmentally friendly refrigerant R-1234yf, instead of R-134a. The benefits of using R-1234yf "Twelve Thirty Four", as R-1234yf is sometimes known, is an HFO type refrigerant delivering high performance, resulting in a more efficient air-conditioning system, fewer emissions and reduced fuel consumption. Hydrofluoroolefins (HFO's) have a double carbon bond meaning they trap less heat in the atmosphere than Hydrofluorocarbons (HFC's) and break down faster. Importantly, R-1234yf systems are specifically engineered to prevent refrigerant leakage and loss, including into the interior of the vehicle. The leakage of refrigerants contributes considerably to greenhouse gases. Why the switch? Older type refrigerants accumulate in the upper atmosphere as greenhouse gases and contribute significantly to Global Warming for a considerable time. In the mid-'90s, the old R-12 (or Freon), which takes a long time to break down into a non-greenhouse gas, was replaced with R134a, which breaks down much quicker. R-1234yf takes that improvement to the next level, breaking down in less than half the time of R-134a (and a fraction of the time R-12 can take). R-134a will remain in use for some time and a licensed mechanic can still service R-134a air con systems, but new vehicles will likely use the new systems with R-1234yf. Some already are. Irrespective of what type of refrigerant your car air conditioner uses, a car service workshop undertaking air conditioner service must have the right knowledge and equipment to handle these gases responsibly. You should always take your car to a mechanic with the skills and specialist equipment to undertake air conditioning service safely and correctly.

Modern radiator coolants not only protect your car from overheating, or the fluid from freezing, they also protect the radiator system from corrosion. Rowville Auto in Rowville 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 Rowville Auto in Rowville 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!
