Brake & Clutch Repairs

Burwood Automotive and Exhaust offers affordable, reliable clutch and brake repairs and servicing.

Brakes

It’s recommended that you have your brakes serviced at least once a year. If your wheel alignment is out by even just a millimetre, it can cause uneven wear on your brakes, reducing their efficiency. Additionally, if you experience any change in performance, screeching noises, or your brake pedal has moved position, you should also come in and see us.

Our brake services include service and repair, complete replacement, and disc machining.

Clutch

Clutches need regular servicing to keep them operating at their best – especially automatic models. Problems in an automatic transmission are indicated by leaking fluid, a check engine light, odd noises like humming or whining, or the car changing gear in a slow or juddering manner. Manual clutches present problems by slipping or not releasing.

Our clutch services include clutch diagnosis, replacement, and servicing.

Timing Belt Replacement

Timing belts are one aspect of car care where an ounce of prevention is worth far more than a pound of cure. Should a timing belt break in a non-interference engine, it will cause significant damage; should this occur in an interference engine, it’s possible the whole engine will be rendered worthless.

Timing belts should be fully replaced when your car hits a certain mileage or age. This point can vary from vehicle to vehicle – if you’re unsure when you should have yours replaced, talk to the expert team at Burwood Automotive & Exhaust during your next car service in Ashburton.

We offer expert timing belt replacements. We can assess your belt and provide an expert, efficient replacement if needed.

Sometimes timing belts will experience excessive wear and need replacing sooner than the recommended time frame. Symptoms that your belt needs replacing include:

• Visual damage to the belt like fraying, cracks or missing teeth
• High-pitched shrieks or whirring noises when the car is started up or idling
• Difficulty in starting, such as the engine taking several times to ‘catch’

We’re conveniently located for residents in Ashburton, Burwood, Camberwell, Glen Iris, Malvern, Mount Waverley and Surrey Hills, allowing them to drop off and pick up their cars with ease. We also offer options for courtesy vehicles and priority taxis so you can still get around during your car service in Ashburton.

To book your car in for a timing belt replacement, contact us today.

Exhaust Repair & Replacement

Burwood Automotive and Exhaust offers a full range of exhaust repair and replacement services. And, of course, a complete range of Berklee quality exhaust components.

At Burwood Automotive and Exhaust, we can repair, as well as replace, your exhaust system as required. By repairing a muffler or replacing only a section of pipe, this can often keep the cost to a minimum. Catalytic converters can prove costly if genuine replacement components are fitted. At Burwood Automotive and Exhaust, we can replace just the required unit and retain original pipework. Euro3 and Euro4 specs are not a problem.

A leaking or poorly functioning exhaust can be dangerous, so don't put off an inspection. Call us today on 03 9888 7000 to arrange an inspection.
