Air Conditioning Service
Our air conditioning specialists diagnose and repair cooling system issues including refrigerant leaks, compressor failures, and electrical faults. Using professional-grade equipment, we perform complete system evacuations and re-gassing to restore optimal performance. The service includes cabin filter replacement and UV sanitisation to maintain air quality while ensuring energy efficiency and passenger comfort during Melbourne's extreme summer temperatures.
Engine Reconditioning
We specialise in complete engine overhauls for high-mileage vehicles showing signs of mechanical wear. Our process includes precision machining of cylinder heads, crankshaft grinding, and piston replacement with OEM-specification components. The service addresses internal failures like seized bearings or damaged valve trains while upgrading critical components to extend engine longevity beyond original factory expectations.

Report
Came once and couldn't find fault. Told me he was buying a new tool which would find straight away. Over the next 6 weeks made numerous appointments and he did not show up. Did not even ring to let me know.
WOULD NOT RECOMMEND HIM FOR ANYTHING TO DO WITH CARS.
