Get Your Car Ready for Easter Travel in Maitland As Easter approaches, it’s no surprise that workshops across Maitland see a sharp rise in service bookings… Whether it’s the lure of a long holiday weekend away or simply the need to stay on top of everyday driving demands, vehicle maintenance becomes a top priority for many at this time of year. But with such a high demand, securing a spot at your preferred workshop can become challenging. That’s why booking your car service early is not just a wise choice – it’s essential. Easter might still feel like it’s a little way off, but the earlier you arrange your vehicle’s servicing, the better positioned you’ll be to avoid the seasonal rush. This is particularly important if you’re planning a road trip over the break. Leaving things to the last minute could result in disappointment, and you might struggle to find a workshop with availability.  Why Book Ahead of Time? By booking ahead, you can ensure that your car is in its best condition, ready for those long-distance drives or even just for running errands and visiting loved ones locally in Maitland. While the Easter rush serves as a timely reminder, the need for regular vehicle servicing goes far beyond seasonal trends. Keeping up with routine maintenance is one of the best ways to ensure your car remains reliable, safe, and fuel-efficient throughout the year. When a vehicle is serviced regularly, potential issues can be identified and addressed before they turn into major (and often costly) problems. Plus, it ensures your car is performing optimally, providing peace of mind whether you’re travelling short distances or heading off on extended trips. But what exactly happens during regular servicing? A standard service covers a range of important tasks aimed at keeping your car in top shape. This includes checking and replacing engine oil and oil filters, inspecting the braking system, testing the battery, and examining tyres for wear and proper inflation. Your technician will also review essential fluid levels such as coolant, brake fluid, and transmission fluid, ensuring they are topped up and in good condition. Many workshops will also perform a thorough inspection of your vehicle’s steering and suspension components, as well as lights, wipers, and the overall safety systems of the car. For drivers planning to hit the road for school holidays or Easter trips, these checks are crucial. Tyres, for example, must have sufficient tread depth to provide good traction and handling, especially on long drives where weather conditions can change. Brake efficiency is equally important, as is ensuring the car’s cooling system can handle the demands of warmer autumn days. Addressing these aspects during servicing significantly reduces the risk of breakdowns or safety issues during your travels.

Ensure a Smooth Summer Vacation

Keep your cool, without global warming. A proactive car air conditioning approach to protecting our environment.  As Australia begins phasing down HFC use (from January 2018), many new vehicle manufacturers may be switching to new air conditioning systems using the more environmentally friendly refrigerant R-1234yf, instead of R-134a. The benefits of using R-1234yf "Twelve Thirty Four", as R-1234yf is sometimes known, is an HFO type refrigerant delivering high performance, resulting in a more efficient air-conditioning system, fewer emissions and reduced fuel consumption. Hydrofluoroolefins (HFO's) have a double carbon bond meaning they trap less heat in the atmosphere than Hydrofluorocarbons (HFC's) and break down faster. Importantly, R-1234yf systems are specifically engineered to prevent refrigerant leakage and loss, including into the interior of the vehicle. The leakage of refrigerants contributes considerably to greenhouse gases. Why the switch? Older type refrigerants accumulate in the upper atmosphere as greenhouse gases and contribute significantly to Global Warming for a considerable time. In the mid-'90s, the old R-12 (or Freon), which takes a long time to break down into a non-greenhouse gas, was replaced with R134a, which breaks down much quicker. R-1234yf takes that improvement to the next level, breaking down in less than half the time of R-134a (and a fraction of the time R-12 can take). R-134a will remain in use for some time and a licensed mechanic can still service R-134a air con systems, but new vehicles will likely use the new systems with R-1234yf. Some already are. Irrespective of what type of refrigerant your car air conditioner uses, a car service workshop undertaking air conditioner service must have the right knowledge and equipment to handle these gases responsibly. You should always take your car to a mechanic with the skills and specialist equipment to undertake air conditioning service safely and correctly.

Martin Tyre & Auto Service - Our expertise & knowledge

Modern radiator coolants not only protect your car from overheating, or the fluid from freezing, they also protect the radiator system from corrosion. Martin Tyre & Auto Service in Maitland are very knowledgeable and experienced in looking after these systems.  It is recommended that you exchange your radiator coolant fluid every two years or 40,000 km's whichever comes first. However the size of the engine, the climate in your area, the age of your current coolant, and the total miles that have been driven can all affect the need to replace the coolant in your radiator. Knowing when to replenish your radiator fluid isn't always easy - obviously, when it has gone a dirty brown colour it's a sign it probably needs to be flushed and replaced - however even fresh-looking coolant could have lost its corrosion protection properties and without measuring its reserve alkalinity there's no signal that it is no longer protecting your vehicle components, and it could even be doing more damage than good. Maintaining good coolant means your radiator system will be much better protected from corrosion and will have a longer life span, it will help prevent you from having to replace expensive engine components. At Martin Tyre & Auto Service in Maitland at your request, we will perform a full 65 Point Vehicle Inspection report for free as part of any minor, major or log book service. Part of this inspection includes checking the level and condition of coolant in your system and the written report will advise you if we feel a radiator flush, fluid replacement or any repairs are required to maintain the performance of your vehicle.

Even if it looks clean, your coolant still might need replacing!
