Why should I see a European car specialist?

A Radiator Coolant Flush can cool things down!

We've likely all seen that unfortunate soul stuck on the side of the road with steam pouring from under the bonnet when the weather is hot.

But overheating cars aren't just caused by hot weather. The fact is that your engine gets hot, really hot, and it's the radiator and cooling system that helps keep your car, and you, from being affected by all that heat. Coolant is a task specific fluid added to the cooling system which helps prevent liquids from boiling over. It also assists in preventing fluids from freezing and has the added bonus that it protects the system from corrosion as well.

Over time rust and scale deposits can accumulate, leading to the whole system becoming essentially "choked" and less effective at cooling and protecting your car. This build up of rust and debris can damage the important parts of your cooling system, including your water pump, radiator, hoses and thermostat, affecting the lifespan of those parts and leading to expensive repairs or replacements in the future.

If your dashboard shows your car is running hotter than normal, your vehicle is overheating or you are leaving puddles of coolant where ever you park it it is a pretty sure sign you might be due for a radiator flush. It is best to have your cooling system checked over by a professional, qualified mechanic such as Carrington Street Auto Repairs to ensure that everything is OK with your radiator, coolant and cooling system.

We will give your radiator and cooling system a well deserved service. Our qualified mechanics will perform a proper radiator flush, using a solution which is designed to remove any build up. When the cooling system has been cleaned out, the solution is emptied, fresh new coolant is added and your car's cooling system will be running like a dream: a radiator flush might be just what your car needs to bring it back to peak performance.

Your radiator will be more efficient, reliable and live longer. Your engine will be more efficient and have an increased life expectancy. Boost the performance and power of your engine. Your water pump is further protected as it is better lubricated.

Do you notice puddles under your car ? Does your temp gauge read hotter than normal ? Is your car overheating? Then it is best to have your cooling system checked over by a professional mechanic like Carrington Street Auto Repairs

Ford Car Service and Repairs in Adelaide

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 Carrington Street Auto Repairs, your trusted local mechanic in Adelaide.

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 Carrington Street Auto Repairs in Adelaide 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 Carrington Street Auto Repairs 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 Carrington Street Auto Repairs in  Adelaide 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 Carrington Street Auto Repairs 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.
