Problems with wheel bearings can arise due to faulty seals or insufficient lubrication. The wear and tear of bearings can be hazardous, as it may result in the wheel detaching from the vehicle, cause uneven tyre wear, produce loud noises, and create instability while driving.

Repacking and adjustment of wheel bearings (where applicable)

Wheel bearing failure: symptoms and causes

To ensure a smooth and reliable driving experience, your vehicle's wheels must rotate seamlessly. Damaged wheel bearings cause friction, leading to axle wear due to excessive heat. This is particularly crucial for vehicles under load or those frequently used for towing, like Utes and 4WDs.

At Andrews Autos, we understand how concerning car noise and vibration can be. Our mechanics can quickly diagnose and resolve the issue, offering advice to put your mind at ease. If you experience any of the following symptoms, we encourage you to visit us for a comprehensive inspection:

Damaged or leaking seal on the wheel bearings

Peace of mind: Not only are we a Repco Authorised Service Centre, but we have a combined 20 years of experience on our team. From large jobs to small, you know you are in good hands with our mechanics, which is backed by the Repco Nationwide Warranty.

Friendly Service: We are not just a workshop; we are a locally owned and operated community of mechanics committed to supporting our neighbours.

Andrews Autos is your go-to destination for all car air conditioning needs, including re-gassing, inspections, diagnosis, repairs and servicing.  We also have FREE Loan Cars Available. 

Your vehicle's air conditioning system operates by using refrigerant to extract heat from the interior and expel it outside, ensuring that only cooled, or 'conditioned', air circulates within the car. Regularly inspecting the rubber seals for leaks or wear is crucial, as deterioration could indicate refrigerant loss.

Inadequate Cooling: If your car's air conditioning fails to cool effectively, it might be due to low refrigerant levels, a clogged condenser, or compressor issues.

Unusual Noises: Strange noises like banging or rattling when the AC is on could signal problems with the compressor or other components of the system.

Unpleasant Odours: A musty or mouldy smell from the vents often points to mould or mildew in the system or cabin air filter, necessitating cleaning or replacement.

Weak Airflow: Weak or inconsistent airflow can be caused by a broken ventilation fan, clogged hoses, or seal issues in the AC.

Leaking Fluids: Noticing refrigerant leaks inside or outside your vehicle may indicate damage or cracks in the air conditioning components.

Electrical Problems: Issues such as the AC not turning on or off, or other control faults, could be due to electrical malfunctions within the system.

To ensure optimal performance, the refrigerant in your vehicle's air conditioning system should ideally be refilled completely within four years of the car's manufacture and every two to three years thereafter.

Having your air conditioning serviced prior to the summer months and holiday road trips can make a world of difference to your comfort and safety. As temperatures soar across Australia, a well-functioning air con ensures a cool and pleasant interior, preventing heat-related discomfort and fatigue. Moreover, regular servicing can enhance the efficiency of your system, potentially lowering energy consumption and saving on fuel costs. It also provides an opportunity to identify and rectify any minor issues before they escalate into costly repairs or breakdowns during your travels. Ultimately, a pre-summer air con service helps ensure a hassle-free and enjoyable journey, whether you're commuting to work or exploring Australia's stunning landscapes on a holiday road trip.

We can combine our fully qualified expertise and knowledge with our local understanding of the driving conditions in Pakenham to not only make sure your wheels are aligned correctly, but to confirm there are no underlying issues with the technologies behind the wheel that keep you safe on the roads.

The performance of safety systems such as traction, stability control, and  ABS braking systems depend largely on how well the suspension performs, which also depends on how well the wheels are aligned, which then has a direct bearing on how the suspension copes with cornering and braking forces, as well as with sudden steering inputs - phew, that's a long line of follow on effects! But that's why it's important to always have a fully qualified workshop perform your Wheel Alignment. 

Having an alignment procedure done at Andrews Autos means knowing that the root cause of the original wheel alignment problem can be corrected professionally by suitably qualified technicians. Book in today!
