Brendale Automotive provide Specialist Braking & Suspension Testing in Brendale.

Find your car rocking and rolling when you corner? Not braking the way it used to? A Safe-T-Stop test will soon have your braking back on track.

Your car's braking and suspension play an important part in making sure that your car stops quickly and safely. Here at Brendale Automotive in Brendale we take your safety very seriously. This is why we have invested in a state of the art Safe-T-Stop testing machine and we are an approved Safe-T-Stop Testing Centre.

Your family's safety can be trusted with a Safe-T-Stop test. It provides an added safety inspection that goes far beyond a standard check and road test to scientifically test your braking capacity and ensure maximum stopping performance.

A Safe-T-Stop test is carried out on the electronically accurate PlateTronic test equipment. Safe-T-Stop test lanes measure and simulate a vehicle's brake performance in real-life conditions, exactly as it would happen in an emergency stop on the road!

Along with the peace of mind that comes from knowing that your car will stop straight and in the shortest possible distance in an emergency, having your braking and suspension system in peak operating condition help you save money by minimising tyre drag and tyre wear which can increase fuel costs.

A Safe-T-Stop check will give you a detailed and accurate printed report that will enable the qualified technicians at Brendale Automotive to advise you on any critical adjustments that should be made.

Your car's safety and roadworthiness is dependent on your vehicle's 'stopping, steering and stability' capabilities.

The suspension and shock absorbers are not just there to give you a smooth ride, they are integral for the correct operation of these three critical capabilities, therefore keeping you, your passengers and other road users safe. Regular servicing and maintenance can help to prevent problems, but if you notice anything amiss, contact us ASAP to get it checked out.

We are located in Brendale and serve customers in the surrounding areas as well.

An important part of keeping all aspects of your vehicle working properly is to stick to your regular Log Book servicing schedule. However, if you notice any of the following symptoms you should get your vehicle checked out as soon as possible;

Nose diving and swerving - bonnet dips when braking or slowing down

Car rocks and rolls over bumps and doesn't hug bends when cornering

Our suspension and shock absorber services include inspection, diagnosis, repairs and replacements so we'll have your car fixed and back on the road time. Don't delay, book today.

Some of your suspension & shock absorber's important parts include

Springs - Springs are designed to absorb energy and there are several different types including leaf, coil, torsion bar or air assisted springs. The springs on different types of cars will be set up to different levels. Luxury cars, for example, may have soft springs to produce a smoother ride but this results in more body movement when the car brakes and corners. Sports cars, on the other hand, tend to have tighter springs which allow for more aggressive driving, including around corners, but also mean a less smooth ride.

Shock absorbers - these dissipate the energy absorbed by the springs. The car would not work properly without the shock absorbers because the springs would cause it to bounce up and down when you go over a bump rather than absorb that bump.

Strut - this is a shock absorber mounted inside a coil spring. Struts do the job of the springs and shock absorbers plus provide additional structural support for the suspension system.

Anti-sway bar - spans the width of the axle and joins the two sides of the suspension together to provide stability to the car while it is moving.

Top Quality: As a part of the Repco Authorised Service Centre network all of the work we perform is backed by the Repco Nationwide Warranty.

Safety & Roadworthiness is dependant on 3 things

Everyone wants to maintain a safe car for themselves and their family but often it's the little things, like keeping an eye on your tyre's tread wear, that go overlooked. Your tyre's treads need to be big enough to allow water to be channelled out from underneath the tyre and prevent the car from sliding over a wet road. If you haven't driven in the wet for a while you might not notice your lack of tread until it's too late so make sure you keep an eye on your tyres and replace them when they need it.

Bring your car into Brendale Automotive for all your tyre needs. We are the local qualified mechanics in Brendale and we'll always provide you a high quality service and greet you with a smile.

While your tyres might look simple, they're actually quite a sophisticated product. here are some of the major parts:

Wheel - this isn't actually part of the tyre but is the bit that is attached to your car. The tyre fits onto the wheel.

Bead - this connects the tyre to the wheel's rim. It's made of hard rubber that's reinforced with wire.

Sidewall - the side of the tyre that connects the bead to the 'tread' of the tyre.

Shoulder - the edge of the tread, connecting to the sidewall.

Schrader valve - lets air in and out of tyre when the pin is pushed in.

Valve stem - stem of rubber than holds the valve and connects to the tyre's sidewall.

Tread - the raised parts of the tyre that come in contact with the road.

Tread void - the areas in between the treads. Tread voids and other channels are actually very important as they provide a channel for water to escape from underneath the tyre where it can seriously affect grip with the road.
