Maintaining your Log Book ensures that your vehicle is kept in the best and most secure state, while still maintaining your new car's warranty. We are qualified to perform Log Book Servicing on a variety of makes and models, such as Holden, Ford, Mazda, Toyota, Nissan, Bmw, Audi, Hyundai, Honda, and Kia, among many more. It is not required to possess an actual log book to get a log book service, we simply just have to abide by the manufacturer's instructions. However, we can certainly provide you with one to assist in tracking your car's service history, which can be very helpful in the future when you plan to sell your vehicle. The schedule of the service will be a combination of both time or distance. As time passes, parts of your car start to break down, and if left unchecked, can break or malfunction. It is much better to change the affected parts before they cause damage, so you won't be stranded on the side of the road or, even worse, have an accident or completely destroy your engine. A maintenance schedule, or service schedule, is the ideal plan to decide which components or liquids should be replaced in your car, and when, in order to keep it in the best shape. When you purchase a new car, it is likely to have a Log Book, where you can write down when you completed the necessary maintenance following the car maker's directions. Doing so preserves the new car warranty and increases the value of your car in case you plan to sell it. If you don't have a log book, Auto Care - Minto have the expertise to create a maintenance schedule based on the car's age, local driving conditions, and your driving style. What's included? Every car is different and the agenda for each service changes according to the schedule, which is why each vehicle is issued with a log book. Here are some examples of what can be included: Change Oil Check Coolant Check Car Battery Check Transmission Fluid Check Brake Fluid Check the Condition of the Air Filter Check Power Steering Fluid Check Spark Plugs Check Turn Signals Check Brake Lights Check Heating System Brake Check Belt Check Hose Check Tyre Rotation Coolant Sensor Check Many people erroneously think that their New Car Log Book Service must be done at the car dealership in order to sustain the warranty, however, this is incorrect. The Australian Competition and Consumer Commission has declared numerous times that by law, you have the liberty to have your car serviced by a mechanic or service center of your choice as long as they are qualified. It's much wiser to take preventative measures before it is too late, as the old saying goes, "a stitch in time saves nine". Come see the team at our Minto workshop today!

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.

Modern radiator coolants not only protect your car from overheating, or the fluid from freezing, they also protect the radiator system from corrosion. Auto Care - Minto in Minto 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 Auto Care - Minto in Minto 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!
