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. City Car Care Braddon in Braddon 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 City Car Care Braddon in Braddon 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 City Car Care Braddon today. We can perform clutch service and repairs on most makes and models right here in our Braddon workshop.

Low temperatures can negatively impact car batteries, causing starting difficulties and leaving drivers stranded. To avoid such problems, City Car Care Braddon offers Free Driveway Car Battery testing at any time. Our comprehensive assessment readies your vehicle for the upcoming cold weather, ensuring its reliability and safety. How Cold Temperatures Impacts Batteries? When subjected to cold temperatures, the chemical reactions within a car battery experience significant impediments, resulting in reduced power retention and delivery capabilities. Even a battery that works efficiently in warm conditions can falter in supplying the required energy to start a car in colder temperatures. This drop in performance can speed up wear and tear, which may lead to sudden battery failure. Our Inspection Checklist At City Car Care Braddon, our pre-winter battery evaluation includes a review of several critical elements to assess your battery's condition and confirm your vehicle's dependability: Battery Voltage and Charge: Testing the battery's charge retention capability, a crucial health metric. Battery Terminals and Cables: Checking for any corrosion or damage that could impair electrical conduction. Battery Case Condition: Inspecting for any physical damage or leakage that could influence performance. Battery Age: Considering the natural decline in a battery's efficiency over time to estimate its remaining service life. Our Service If you find yourself in need of a battery replacement, you can count on City Car Care Braddon to have an extensive variety of sizes suitable for various types of vehicles. Our selection includes Energizer Car Batteries for passenger vehicles, 4x4, 4WDs and SUVs with 36 month Nationwide Warranty.

Our skilled mechanics conduct a thorough visual examination of key vehicle components and provide a detailed written report on your car’s condition. We'll help you identify and address any issues to ensure you're prepared for safe winter driving. Key Tips for Safe Winter Driving Preparing your car for wintery conditions in the ACT involves specific steps, but the core principles remain constant. How can you ensure your vehicle is ready for winter conditions? Clear Vision is Crucial It's all too easy to forget about your wipers until you need them. The harsh Australian sun can wear them down over time. Invest in a quality wiper blade like Trico to maintain visibility in all weather. City Car Care Braddon can recommend the perfect wiper blades for your vehicle. Maintain Essential Fluids Cold weather can affect your car’s fluids, such as coolants and oils, as well as parts like glow plugs in diesel vehicles. Regular servicing by knowledgeable mechanics who understand your vehicle’s needs is vital. We utilise top-quality NGK glow plugs and Penrite oils, designed for Australian conditions. Adjust Your Driving for Conditions As conditions shift, your driving habits should adapt. Reduce speed in wet or foggy conditions and maintain a larger gap between your car and others. Ensure your vehicle is ready for any situation by scheduling a service or 65 Point Inspection with us today. Ensure Your Brakes are Reliable Watch for signs that your brakes need attention, such as vibrations, unusual noises, or a spongy pedal. These are included in our comprehensive inspection. If you notice any issues, contact us to book an evaluation. Winter Challenges for Car Batteries During the chilly winter months in Braddon, car batteries can struggle to maintain optimal performance. Cold temperatures can reduce a battery's capacity and slow down chemical reactions within it, making it more difficult for your vehicle to start. This is particularly true for vehicles used infrequently, as their batteries may not have the opportunity to recharge regularly. Check Your Tyres Ensure your tyres have adequate tread. Uneven wear might suggest suspension or steering issues. Properly inflated tyres save fuel and improve stopping distance. Check the recommended tyre pressure on the driver-side door panel. Flexible Payment options with AFTERPAY now available with City Car Care Braddon. Ask us for more information at time of booking.
