Logbook Servicing

When buying a new vehicle, the warranty that comes with it provides a certain amount of peace of mind to the new car owner. Maintaining the warranty requires regular logbook servicing to keep track of potential trouble spots in your car in its early life.

We can offer logbook servicing on all makes and models of petrol, diesel, LPG, electric and hybrid vehicles, maintaining your warranty while also saving you the added expense and hassle of the dealership. To book your vehicle in for its next logbook service, give us a call today!

Inspections

Before you sell, transfer ownership, or re-register your vehicle for the road, it will need to be deemed roadworthy by a VicRoads-licensed vehicle tester.

We can provide drivers with vehicle inspections, covering all makes and models of light vehicle, and issue Roadworthy Certificates to vehicles that meet Victorian road standards.

Brake Repairs

Your brakes are one of your vehicle’s most important safety features, often making the difference between an emergency stop and a costly visit to the panel beater. To keep your vehicle responsive and able to stop in an instant requires that your brakes are checked for warning signs regularly.

We’re able to repair or replace your brakes’ components as needed, from brake pads and rotors to drums on larger vehicles, as well as check your brake fluid lines for cracks or leaks that may affect your ability to brake. We can also machine parts to the perfect custom fit for your vehicle.

Steering & Suspension

If you’re experiencing body roll or other ride comfort issues, or if your car doesn’t handle as responsively as it once did, the problem most likely stems from a worn component in your vehicle’s suspension or steering column.

At St Albans Exhaust Centre we can replace faulty suspension parts, from shocks and springs to replacing your vehicle’s bushing, for a smoother, less jarring ride. We’re also able to repair problems with your vehicle’s power steering system, and perform wheel alignments and balancing for maximum control on the road.

Exhaust Repairs/Replacement

A good exhaust system is crucial to your engine’s health, drawing spent air away from the vehicle to allow for your engine to breathe. Problems with your exhaust can result in various performance issues, from power loss to excess fuel consumption.

We can repair your damaged exhaust, or replace it with an aftermarket muffler or extractor, keeping the air in your engine clear and ensuring optimum performance.

Tyres

Choosing a new set of tyres for your vehicle is more complicated than just matching your vehicle’s make and model. To get the absolute most out of your new rubber, you should also consider your typical road conditions and persona habits as a driver.

We provide a wide range of tyres to best suit your needs, for all makes and models of passenger cars, 4x4s and light commercial vehicles.

Clutch & Transmission

Problems changing gears or staying in gear, as well as strange noises and smells from under the car, can be early indicators of trouble in your vehicle’s transmission. This can become a serious problem for your vehicle, and expensive to get repaired if not treated early.

At St Albans Exhaust we can service your vehicle’s drivetrain, from a sticking clutch pedal and other issues with your clutch to a comprehensive service of your vehicle’s manual or automatic transmission, including repairs or complete replacement if necessary.

Radiators & Cooling

A healthy engine needs to be kept at its optimum temperature to get the most out of it. Any hotter and your engine could develop serious faults that could bring your vehicle to a stop at any time. If your vehicle’s overheating, bring it in to our team for an inspection to avoid further damage to your car.

We’re able to conduct repairs to your vehicle’s radiator and cooling system, from repairing or replacing your vehicle’s radiator and heater units to replacing your vehicle’s head gaskets, replacing faulty thermostats, and giving your system a coolant flush to clear out blockages or clogs.
