Rawson Motors understand that planning a road trip and making your vehicle holiday-ready demands more than packing your essentials and filling the tank. To ensure your car's optimum performance, reliability, and safety on long road journeys, regular servicing becomes crucial. So, why should you carry out regular vehicle service, and how does it keep your car ready for holidays? Let's explore. 

Get Your Car Holiday-Ready with Regular Servicing

Brake Maintenance is of utmost importance in regular vehicle servicing. No matter how great a car's performance might be, if its braking system is compromised, it's a recipe for potential disaster. Technicians will inspect the brake pads, lines and fluids to ensure the system operates seamlessly when you need it most.

Why Brake Maintenance is Crucial for Your Car's Safety

An air conditioning system doesn't merely add to your comfort but plays an essential role in window demisting, providing safety. Keeping it fully functional is vital, and the servicing technicians perform thorough checks, repairing any detected problems for an efficient air conditioning system.

The Importance of a Well-Functioning Air Conditioning System

Suspension and steering significantly influence the car's handling, ensuring a smooth and comfortable ride. Regular servicing examines any potential wear and tear on your shock absorbers and suspensions, and any issues in steering components. This inspection helps in diagnosing problems early, promoting safer and easier driving. 

Ensure a Smooth Ride with Suspension and Steering Checks

Your car's engine is its heart. Thus, regular checking and changing engine oil is vital for keeping it running smoothly. Over time, the oil can become dirty and lose its efficiency, making regular changes crucial for maintaining a healthy engine.

Keep Your Engine Healthy with Regular Oil Changes

Batteries can run flat with no prior warning, creating unpleasant and sometimes risky situations. During a routine service, technicians conduct battery inspections, testing its voltage, checking for any leakages, and ensuring its hold-down clamps are secure.

Prevent Unexpected Issues with Routine Battery Inspections

Tyre maintenance ensures that your tyres are not worn out or underinflated, preventing poor handling, punctures, blowouts, and accidents. Regular tyre rotation and wheel alignment also increase their life span.

Tyre Maintenance: Essential for Safety and Longevity

An electrical system of a car comprises many elements, from the ignition system, lights to power systems. A glitch in any of these could mean inconvenience at best, and a serious risk at worst. Regular servicing aims at efficiently diagnosing and fixing these problems.

Avoid Risks with Regular Electrical System Checks

Replacement of vehicle fluids and filters is another aspect of regular car servicing. It includes engine oil, brake fluid, transmission fluid, and coolant, preventing potential issues that can degrade your car's performance.

The Importance of Replacing Vehicle Fluids and Filters

With regular vehicle servicing, your car will run more efficiently, leading to a smoother driving experience, reduced emissions, and fewer running costs. Ultimately, it leads to peace of mind during your journey, ensuring the safety of all passengers on board. 

Enjoy Peace of Mind with Efficient and Safe Car Servicing

Keeping your car in top shape requires routine and comprehensive servicing. The expert technicians at Rawson Motors use only the best equipment, parts and fluids to ensure your car's readiness for any road trip. So when the time comes for your next holiday drive, be assured your vehicle is in peak condition with the reliability and safety that regular car servicing guarantees. After all, it's your car, and you have the right to make the best choice for it.

Today's vehicles are sometimes very intricate and much like how an engine inside of a car needs to be tuned up or fixed so that it continues running smoothly; air conditioners too have components that need regular servicing to make sure they're operating reliably and efficiently. 

Driving around all day might heat things up. When the natural process of evaporation occurs overtime or there are minor leaks in the AC system, refrigerant pressure decreases meaning your vehicle's AC is about to break down sooner than later! As such, it's crucial to regularly check for any signs of leaking or corrosion from rubber seals. Keeping your AC at its optimum performance level once a year can help avoid expensive breakdowns, keep passengers safe by preventing the build up of icky substances, and a well-serviced AC actually saves you money because your fuel consumption goes down!

RAS Auto Facts - Air Conditioning

If refrigerant starts to evaporate or leak your air con system will begin to deteriorate and will have to work harder, increasing your fuel consumption.

Therefore it is important to scrutinise the condition of the rubber seals regularly for any signs of leaks or weakness which may be a signal of refrigerant loss.

A car air conditioning service every twelve months means you may assist protection from costly breakdowns now and in the future, keep passengers safe by helping to prevent the build-up of potentially harmful substances and a well serviced vehicle air conditioning system actually saves you money because it expends less fuel.

It is a fact that you get to choose where your vehicle is serviced, maintained and repaired, at competitive prices.

Wanting to snap up a great deal in the end of year car sales or want to welcome in the new year by having your new car serviced? Here is some sound advice from Rawson Motors in Officer.

The acquisition of a new car is one of the most substantial investments you will likely make, so it is common sense to do whatever you can to maintain 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.

You will want to ensure it is regularly serviced by a 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.

It is a fact that you get to choose who will service your new car without voiding either the manufacturers warranty or your rights under the Consumer Guarantee

Car dealers are not able to force you to take the vehicle back to the dealer where you originally purchased it for service or repairs. Provided the work is implemented to the manfufacturers specifications by a suitably qualified 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 Rawson Motors mechanic is fully qualified and Auto-Tech trained, giving them access to Australia's leading provider of automotive technical information and training. This means Rawson Motors 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. Rawson Motors will also only ever use fluids and lubricants that meet the specifications of the original vehicle 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 diversity between express, statutory and manufacturer warranties to help 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 replaced 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 at the time of sale, look out for new car dealers who may try to pad the deal with “express” or “extended” warranties, often for free. Much of the time these ‘special' warranties may include quite specialised restrictions or provisions, and are not always what they are cracked up to be. Many times these promises provide no real additional benefits not already covered by the consumer's basic statutory rights and can tie the unwary buyer into a long term agreement with a particular new car dealership.

Such promises are very unlikely to call to your notice the potential negative aspects involved with taking a new car back to the dealer for service or repair. This includes the distance you may need to travel to get your car serviced or longer waiting times due to fewer available service locations or mechanics.

Mazda Car Service and Repairs in Officer

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 Rawson Motors, your trusted local mechanic in Officer.

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 Rawson Motors in Officer 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 Rawson Motors 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 Rawson Motors in  Officer 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 Rawson Motors 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.

Call Rawson Motors for all your diesel 4WD and diesel passenger vehicle repairs, inspections and services. We are conveniently located in Officer.

A diesel engine can be more efficient, better for the environment and cheaper to run than its petrol-powered counterpart. However, it still needs regular servicing to keep it running at an ultimate level and to help make sure nothing goes wrong. 

Our technicians at Rawson Motors are fully qualified to service diesel SUV, AWD, 4WD and Passenger diesel vehicles. Contact us today.
