Driveline maintenance
We advise on crucial maintenance for transmission, differentials, and driveline systems, typically at 40,000-60,000km intervals. due to hi stress of stop start driving and short distance below operating temperatures causing premature wear that is commonly overlooked by most or set by manufactures to make servicing look cheaper compared to competitors and or keeping caped price services low till vehicle out of warranty
we advise drive portal oils to replaced on machinery servicing every 250hrs
we advise in hydraulic filters be changed every 500hrs and hydraulic fluid replaced every 1000hr service.
Fluid maintenance
We test brake fluid every service for moisture and recommend replacement every 2 year's.
brake fluid absorbs moisture causing corrosion of parts and materials within the system and can cause boiling of brake fluid causing air pockets causing brake failure brake fluid boiling point generally starts from around 280deg C for dot 3 and the higher the grade the higher the boiling point (water boils at 100 deg C at sea level).
we test coolant refraction % every service and recommend coolant flush/replacement every 3-5 years, ensuring optimal performance. as coolant contains acids and acid neutraliser's so when toped up you only dilute the mixture potentially damaging the system due to contamination.
