Exhaust
and Muffler Repairs: Your vehicle’s exhaust system
is vital to its’ performance and the safety and comfort of
your passengers. It can also be damaging to the environment,
emitting poisonous gases into the air. It is imperative your
vehicles’ muffler and exhaust be inspected regularly.
Engine
Overhauls: We’re equipped to carry out major engine
overhauls on most makes and models. We will remove/repair/overhaul/reassemble
engine, cylinders, block, starter/alternator, distributor,
fuel system, with specification and modifications for performance
or economy.
Radiator
Repair Service: Your vehicles radiator is the primary
cooling mechanism for your engine. If it fails, your car will
overheat and need to be repaired. This service will pinpoint
and repair those areas common to radiator failure.
Gas
Struts Repair or Replacement Service: Gas struts
(tiny gas-filled shock absorbers) are built into the boot
or bonnet to help hold the door’s position when opened. When
the struts wear, they are unable to control the weight of
the door during transitions, becoming a safety hazard.

TO TOP
Shock
Absorber Repair or Replacement Service (every 10,000kms):
Worn out, damaged, or leaking shock absorbers allow the wheels
to bounce, which results in poor tyre-to-road contact, vibrations,
premature tyre wear, reduced braking performance, and increased
noise. Unfortunately, shock absorbers are often neglected
until they fail completely.
Manufacturers
Logbook Servicing
In order to maintain your car’s warranty,
we recommend genuine parts be used, however this will always
remain the customers decision.
Computerised
Diagnostics & Repairs
Superior Automotive specialises in most vehicle electrical
systems and will carry out the following repairs: battery
checks, diagnosis, drivability, major and minor tune-ups,
alternators, starters, air conditioning and heater controls,
electronic ignition and electrical wiring. This computerised
equipment provides a systematic performance report to compare
against normal ratings, enabling the mechanic to make necessary
repairs or replacements.
Auto-transmission
Servicing / Repairs & Power Flush
(every 30,000kms)
If your vehicle shows signs of contaminated fluid, slippage,
rough or harsh shifting, you may be in need of a transmission
service. Like the fuel in your engine, automatic transmission
fluid is affected by heat, friction and electrochemical degradation.
This will clog your transmission with sludge and varnish deposits.
Your best option is to perform a transmission power flush
before it becomes necessary to perform major repairs or complete
replacement of the transmission.
Coolant,
Brake Fluid Flush / Power Steering Fluid Flush
This service involves pressure testing the cooling system
and replacing the coolant to avoid overheating and corrosion.
For increased stopping power, we recommend a brake fluid flush
every 12 months.

and bleed air out of system and pressure test followed by
a vehicle road test and concentration check.
Brake
fluid replacement: vacuum-flush all brake lines and
reservoirs, fill with new brake fluid, and bleed brakes and
road test.

signs, book your vehicle in for a service NOW! Superior Automotive
will also service and replace clutches in vehicles with guaranteed
parts.
Brake
Fluid Service (every 40,000kms or every 2 years):

that major car manufacturers have added it to their required
maintenance. Avoid costly repairs and monitor and change your
brake fluid regularly.
Steam

sale, or want your engine looking new again. It is also helpful

steam cleaning from beneath, blowing out water from sparkplugs
and distributor, and running the engine.

Tyre
Fitting and Inspections
Good tyres improve handling, prolong tyre life, conserve fuel,
decrease the chance of blowouts and decrease your stopping
distance, especially in the wet.
Our
experienced technicians will assist you in selecting a tyre
that suits your vehicle and your budget. We will fit and fully
test your vehicle with our equipment and in a road test, inspect
tyres’ roadworthiness, sidewall damage or bald spots and ensure
tyres are inflated to correct pressure. This inspection will
be carried out as part of a general inspection on your vehicle
with any services undertaken.
Ensure
experts check your tyres each time your car is serviced. Your
insurance company will not pay a claim if your tyres are un-roadworthy
at the time of an accident.
Wheel
Alignment & Balances (every 10,000kms)
If you do not regularly align your wheels it will result in
premature wear of your tyres and suspension components as
well as inadequate handling, performance and safety. If you
are noticing your steering pulling to one side, bad steering
control or squealing tyres when turning, your vehicle may
require a wheel alignment as soon as possible. Our workshop
is equipped with the latest aligning equipment and can cater
for two and four wheel alignments.
Pre-purchase
Inspections
