Power Steering Repairs
Your power steering system makes turning smooth and effortless. If it becomes stiff, noisy or leaks fluid, it’s time for inspection. We check the power steering pump, fluid levels, hoses and belts to identify any worn or damaged parts. Proper maintenance prevents costly breakdowns and ensures safe handling at all speeds. Early repairs help avoid steering failure and extend the life of your system. A well-functioning power steering setup reduces fatigue, improves precision and enhances driving comfort — especially in heavy vehicles or during long trips around Wagga Wagga
Suspension System Replacements
A healthy suspension system absorbs bumps, supports even tyre wear and keeps your wheels firmly on the road. When shocks, struts or control arms wear out, your vehicle’s stability and safety can be compromised. We provide complete suspension replacements using quality components designed to restore comfort and handling. Our thorough approach ensures all parts work harmoniously, from bushings to ball joints. If you’re noticing excessive bounce, clunks or uneven ride height, it’s time for a suspension check. Replacing worn components restores a smoother ride and prevents premature tyre and steering wear.
Wheel Alignment Checks
Proper wheel alignment keeps your steering accurate, improves tyre life and reduces fuel consumption. Over time, potholes, curbs or worn suspension components can knock your wheels out of alignment. We use precision alignment equipment to adjust your vehicle’s geometry to manufacturer specifications. Regular alignment checks ensure your tyres make even contact with the road, improving safety and comfort. Signs of misalignment include your vehicle pulling to one side, uneven tyre wear or an off-centre steering wheel. Correcting alignment not only protects your tyres but also provides better control and a smoother driving experience.
Shock Absorber Servicing
Shock absorbers are vital for maintaining traction and comfort by controlling how your suspension reacts to bumps. Worn shocks can cause bouncing, nose-diving when braking and poor handling on uneven roads. During servicing, we inspect mounts, seals and performance to determine if replacement is needed. Restoring your shocks ensures better cornering, reduced stopping distances and a safer overall ride. Neglecting them can lead to faster tyre wear and strain on other suspension parts. Regular shock absorber servicing keeps your car stable and smooth, making every drive around Wagga Wagga more comfortable and controlled.
FAQ
How do I know if my suspension needs repair?
Common signs include knocking noises, excessive bouncing, uneven tyre wear or a rough ride. If your car pulls to one side or feels unstable around corners, it’s time for an inspection. A professional mechanic can test your suspension components and identify worn parts before they affect your safety.
What happens if my wheel alignment is off?
Poor alignment causes uneven tyre wear, reduced fuel economy and compromised steering control. You may notice your steering wheel isn’t centred or your car drifts when driving straight. Regular alignment checks ensure tyres wear evenly and steering remains precise, improving both safety and performance.
How often should suspension be inspected?
It’s recommended to have your suspension inspected every 20,000 km or at least once a year. Early detection of worn parts, leaking shocks or alignment issues prevents expensive damage and ensures your car remains stable, safe and comfortable to drive.
