Seeking a Qualified Automotive Technician

Do you drive an Automatic vehicle? Then you might not even know there is a clutch in your vehicle. But without it, the gears in your car will not change. Fleurieu Automotive in Victor Harbor know all about repairing and servicing these systems including clutches, cables and fluids. Learn more below. What is a clutch? The clutch is one of the most important elements of your vehicles driving operation. Your engine is what causes your wheels to spin, but what happens when your car needs to stop? The engine shouldn't stop spinning but the wheels need to. It's the clutch that allows this to 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. What is clutch fluid? Some vehicles 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. Leaking clutch fluid can cause all kinds of problem in your vehicle so it is very important to monitor it regularly. At Fleurieu Automotive in Victor Harbor we check your clutch fluid, hydraulic system or clutch cables for you in the course of our free 65 Point Vehicle Inspection - which you can request as part of every car service.
 What signs to look for if your clutch is not performing You should have your clutch looked at if: 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 There is jerky or sticky gear operation Your clutch is not disengaging fully, or your clutch is sticking or shuddering If your clutch is showing any of the problems above - it could 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. The best way to deal with clutch shuddering, slipping or noise is contact us at Fleurieu Automotive today. We can perform clutch service and repairs on most makes and models right here in our Victor Harbor workshop.

The clutch is one of the most important elements of your vehicles driving operation.

Drive Safer this Winter with a 65 Point Vehicle Safety Inspection  If your vehicle is not Due for a service yet, but you are about to travel further than normal, or maybe your looking at purchasing a new Vehicle enquire about having your vehicle Safety Inspection performed by a qualified Technician at Fleurieu Automotive. At every Minor, Major or Logbook Service our qualified technicians will visually check over the important components of your vehicle and provide you with the condition of your vehicle. We can then help you understand any concerns which may need to be attended so that you can drive safe this winter with Fleurieu Automotive, Your Local Repco Authorised Service in Victor Harbor. Have your car ready for winter driving. So what ways can you make sure your car is set for safe winter motoring?  Safe Winter Driving Maintenance Tips Windscreen Wipers - Making it clear Who hasn't had that moment when you turn on the wipers at the first drop of rain and realise they haven't been replaced in years! Constant exposure to the Australian conditions means your wipers will wear out. A good quality wiper blade like Trico is essential to help you see your way clear regardless of the weather. Fleurieu Automotive can recommend a wiper blade or assembly that is right for your car. Fluids - Keep your fluids up Fluids and other components in your car can be effected by cold weather; including coolants, oils and items such as glow plugs in diesel vehicles. Regular services are important - especially by a professional who knows the right products and parts for your vehicle's needs. We use high quality NGK glow plugs and Penrite oils and fluids that are designed for Australian conditions.   Headlights - Be Seen Functioning headlights are essential, particularly during winter when daylight hours are short and weather conditions can make visibility poor. They ensure you can see clearly in rain, fog, or snow, helping you spot hazards and navigate safely. Equally important, they allow other road users to see you, reducing the risk of accidents in darker or low-visibility situations. Regularly checking that your headlights are clean and working properly is a simple yet crucial step in staying safe on the roads during the colder months. Batteries - Don't Be Flat Cold weather can significantly affect your car battery’s performance. As temperatures drop, the chemical reactions within the battery slow down, making it harder for the battery to generate sufficient power to start your car. This is especially noticeable during frosty mornings when your vehicle struggles to turn over. You might also notice dim headlights, slower electric window functions, or an illuminated battery warning light on the dashboard. Testing your battery during colder months is crucial, and the team at Fleurieu Automotive in Victor Harbor is here to help. Brakes - Could you stop in time? Be aware of the signals that your brakes need to be looked at, like vibrating, spongy or slow responding brake pedal, strange sounds or difficult handling when applying pressure to your brakes. If you are experiencing any of these you should get it checked out by a qualified mechanic. Brake inspections form part of our 65 Point Vehicle Inspection Report, so if you have concerns call us today and book in. Safety Inspections - A Top Priority As the seasons shift, especially with winter approaching, ensuring your vehicle is in safe working condition is essential. A thorough Vehicle Safety Inspection helps identify any potential issues that could compromise safety, such as worn tyres, faulty brakes, or dim headlights, all of which are particularly crucial when driving in harsher weather conditions. Winter often brings icy roads, reduced visibility, and colder temperatures, which can place additional strain on your car. Addressing these concerns in advance not only keeps you and your passengers safer but can also help prevent costly repairs down the line. Taking the time to prioritise this check can make a significant difference to your peace of mind and your journey’s reliability. Driving - Drive to the changing conditions It's essential to drive to the road conditions If visibility is poor or the weather is wet - slow down and leave a larger than normal stopping distance between yourself and the vehicle in front. Drive on the safe side and book in today for a service or a 65 Point Vehicle Inspection Report. Tyres - Do you have grip? Driving on worn or incorrectly inflated tyres can be dangerous. Now is the time to check how worn your tyres are. If your tyres are wearing unevenly, this could indicate that your shock absorbers or some other vital part of your steering and suspension systems are due for service or replacement. Find out more about the components that affect your tyre wear on the links below:  Tyres and Wheel Service Shock Absorber Auto Facts Steering and CV Boots Braking and Disc Pads Tyres - Do you have the Right Pressure? Driving on incorrectly inflated tyres won't just cost you money on additional fuel; it can also impact your stopping ability. You can usually find manufacturers recommendations on a panel inside the driver side door.
