Sanitise your Car's Air Conditioning System

Don't let your car become that unfortunate one stuck on the side of the road with steam spewing out from beneath its bonnet.

Not just heatwaves can cause your engine to overheat; it is the cooling system and radiator which do the work of protecting both your car and yourself from being damaged by all that extreme heat. Additionally, a liquid known as coolant is essential for avoiding freezing and also defending against corrosion.

Do I need a radiator flush or cooling system service?

Are there any indicators that you require a radiator flush or a cooling system service? If the dashboard of your vehicle displays a temperature level that is higher than the norm, if your car is in the process of overheating, or you can see patches of coolant on the spot where you have parked, it is recommended you contact Mototech Automotive to have a look at the cooling system of your vehicle.

So if your car is showing these signs come and see the team at Mototech Automotive.

And we can service your cooling system and flush your radiator. Our fully trained team of experts will perform a radiator flush, using a solution that removes build up. Once the cooling system is flushed, the solution is drained and coolant replaced, 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.

What are the benefits of a radiator flush.

Your radiator will be more efficient, reliable and live longer.

Your engine will be more efficient and have an increased life expectancy.

Overall performance and power in your vehicle will be boosted.

How often should I get a coolant system flush?

Your vehicle's log book will recommend how regularly your cooling system should be flushed, It is commonly suggested that you flush your coolant system every two years or 40,000 km's depending on which comes first. However, the size of your engine, local seasons, the quality of your existing coolant, and the total km's driven can all have an effect on how often you should replace the coolant in your radiator.

At Mototech Automotive, we offer a full 65 Point Vehicle Inspection Report for free as part of any minor, major or log book service on your vehicle. This includes inspecting the coolant and cooling system and the written report will tell you if we feel a radiator flush, coolant replacement or any repairs are necessary to maintain the safety and performance of your vehicle.

What happens if I don't get a radiator flush or service?

Eventually rust and scale deposits collect and the whole system becomes jammed up and not as good 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, reducing the life of those parts and leading to expensive repairs or replacements in the future.

While there are a lot of websites giving advice on how to flush a radiator yourself - we don't recommend it. Today's vehicles are complex and mistakes like incomplete flushing or changing the coolant in your vehicle without flushing can push more debris around and cause blockages in your thermostat or radiator. It's best to have your systems inspected regularly by a qualified mechanic, and properly flushed before being refilled with coolant of the right specifications, the system purged of any air pockets, and then the whole system professionally reviewed again to ensure full working order and to prevent any costly breakdowns in the future. Radiator coolant is toxic and needs to be handled very carefully. It is also very sweet smelling which can be inviting to children and pets so proper storage is very important - letting a trained technician take care of this task means not handling or having dangerous chemicals around your house. Dangerous coolant also needs to be disposed of in the proper manner, professional workshops can have the coolant recycled or properly disposed of to save the environment.

If you think your radiator needs a flush, speak with the experts at Mototech Automotive or book online!

Is your car overheating, making strange noises or emitting a funny smell? These could be signs that your radiator is due for a flush. Contact Mototech Automotive in Enoggera to have your cooling system inspected.

A Diesel Particulate Filter, or DPF, is a component which removes soot from the exhaust gas of a diesel engine - a great thing for the environment. 

All filters get blocked over time but in DPF's clogging is avoided by using high heat to burn the sooty residue and turn it into ash. However in short trip or slow city driving the exhaust temperatures don't always get hot enough for the soot to burn-off, and the DPF can eventually get blocked.

A warning light on your dashboard will let you know when your particulate filter needs attention - and you should have that attended to immediately to avoid the potential risk of fire. Examples of Diesel Particulate Warning Lights.

How do I know when my DPF filter needs cleaning?

If you have a DPF issue on your diesel vehicle come and see the friendly staff at Mototech Automotive.

Mototech Automotive do clutch services, repairs and replacements for all major makes and models. Bring your vehicle into our workshop in Enoggera and we'll have you back on the road as soon as possible.

The clutch is one of the most important elements of your cars driving operation. Your engine is what causes your wheels to move, but what happens when your vehicle needs to stop? The engine shouldn't stop turning but the wheels need to. The clutch is what lets this happen.

The clutch allows the transfer of power from the engine to the wheels to be interrupted while a gear is being changed or while the car is stationary and the engine continues to run.

Some cars have hydraulic clutches - when you press the clutch pedal the clutch fluid moves the pressure from the pedal through to the clutch and disengages the power transmission. A leak in the clutch system can cause all kinds of problem in your vehicle so it is very important to monitor it regularly. At Mototech Automotive we check your clutch fluid, hydraulic system or clutch cables for you during our free 65 Point Vehicle Inspection report - which you can request as part of every car service.

If we discover a problem or leak in your clutch we will include this in our written report or let you know directly if we feel it needs immediate attention.

You should have your clutch looked at if:

What signs to look for if your clutch is not performing?

You notice a Burnt ‘toast' or ‘burning rubber' smell in your car, or smoke from under vehicle

Your Vehicle is slipping out of gear for no reason

Your clutch is not disengaging fully, or your clutch is sticking or shuddering

If your clutch is showing any of the problems above - it can mean any number of faults. Clutch problems are difficult to diagnose by symptoms alone because many issues cause the same symptoms, depending on the vehicle and type of engine.

We repair and replace the clutches of many vehicle types every year so we have strong experience in this area

Our mechanics are fully qualified and receive ongoing training to keep up to date with the latest techniques

We are an independently owned local mechanic (NOT a franchise) so when you spend money with us your dollars stay in the local economy

For your peace of mind, our work and parts are backed by the Repco Nationwide Warranty

Inspection and repairs of other clutch elements

Inspection and repairs of related parts in the engine and transmission

Flywheel - stores rotational energy of the engine while the transmission is disengaged

Clutch plate/disk - presses against fly wheel

Pressure plate - pushed into the clutch plate

Throw-out bearing (aka clutch release bearing) - is pressed against the middle of the diaphragm spring to disengage the clutch

Release fork - presses throw-out bearing when clutch pedal is pressed

Diaphragm springs - push pressure plate against clutch disc when foot is off of clutch pedal

Pins (studs) - cause the diaphragm spring to pull the pressure plate away from the clutch disc when centre of spring is pushed in - this releases the clutch from the spinning engine

The best way to deal with clutch shuddering, slipping or noise is call us at Mototech Automotive. We can perform Clutch service and repairs on most makes and models right here in our Enoggera workshop.
