Clutch Services

The clutch is a crucial component of a vehicle's transmission system in manual transmissions and in some automatic transmission designs. It engages and disengages the engine from the drivetrain to allow for smooth gear changes and to prevent the engine from stalling.

Inspection & Adjustment: Regular inspections can identify wear and tear on the clutch plate, pressure plate, clutch fork and the hydraulic or cable system that operates the clutch. Adjustments might be necessary to ensure that the engagement and disengagement process is smooth.
Clutch Repair or Replacement: Over time, the clutch may wear out or become damaged. Symptoms of a failing clutch include difficulty in changing gears, slipping clutch (engine revs but the car does not accelerate as it should) and a hard or soft clutch pedal. Replacing the clutch is a detailed process that involves removing the transmission to access the clutch assembly.
Hydraulic System Service: Many modern vehicles use a hydraulic system to operate the clutch. This system itself may require service, including bleeding the lines to remove air bubbles or replacing worn seals and the master/slave cylinder to maintain proper function.

Brake Services

The braking system is vital for the safety of the vehicle, allowing it to stop efficiently and quickly. Regular brake services are critical to maintaining the performance and safety of your vehicle.

Brake Pad Replacement: Brake pads experience wear and need to be replaced periodically. Worn brake pads can lead to increased stopping distances and can also damage the brake rotors.
Rotor Machining or Replacement: Brake rotors can become worn or warped over time. Depending on the condition, they might need to be machined to make them true again or replaced entirely if they are too worn down.
Brake Fluid Flush: Brake fluid can absorb moisture over time, which can lead to a spongy brake pedal feel and reduced braking efficiency. Flushing the old fluid and replacing it with new fluid can restore brake performance.
Inspection & Maintenance of Brake Components: This includes checking the brake lines for leaks, inspecting the brake calipers for proper operation, and ensuring the entire braking system is functioning correctly.
